Re: [amibroker] Rate of Change

["Tomasz Janeczko" <tj@xxxx>]

Hello,

Here comes the code that calculates yearly percentage returns year by year and lists them in the exploration
window:

NewYear = Year() != Ref( Year(), 1 );

StartValue = ValueWhen( NewYear, Close, 2 );
EndValue = ValueWhen( NewYear, Close, 1 );

Filter = NewYear;
AddColumn(Year(), "Year", 1.0 );
AddColumn(100*( EndValue - StartValue )/StartValue, "Percentage change" );

Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
