Hi,Is there any reason why parse does not work for this expression"movingAvg+/:(k*-1 0 1)*:md" from this page:https://code.kx.com/trac/wiki/Cookbook/ProgrammingExamples#ComputingBollingerbands?Thanks,Victor

you have to escape the \ because it is inside a string

q)parse"movingAvg+/:(k*-1 0 1)*\:md"
(/:;+)
movingAvg ((\:;\*);(\*;k;-1 0 1);`md)
