This is a good question as i too would like to know how to do this.
Is it possible to only have stocks that may be choosen by the ROC or
other sys to compare against an index only if the index is rising by
using an adx formula or similar.
I am fairly new to ami and dont understand the capabilities of
ami yet.
I can create a custom index but the results when looking at the
chart are very choppy and has eratic short price jumps from 1 extreme
to the other.
The prob is how can i use a custom or even the normal index as a
base ( but only a base when it is in a rising trend) then only when
the formula of the index is true will it then seek to buy stocks
from whatever group of stocks you choose.
I would like this as an exploration, and also to backtest all the
qoutes.
I would think this is impossible as it would probably have to be
done in 2 steps and save the index results in a separate watchlist(
but i dont think you can save a watchlist of the index or any other
stock that has the history with only the individual date ranges or
true results after running a formula e.g. ADX)
In this case it would only have stored the ranges of the index
after running an ADX formula.
so then i can compare all the stocks or certain groups against this
broken index knowing it will only buy if the index has a rising trend.
If there is any other way to do this can someone please be helpful
and post a formula or the way to do this in a basic explanation.
sorry if this is a stupid question.
Thankyou
peter.
