I am NOT the developer of the Stock Analyzer, only a user and moderator of
the yahoo group.

I do NOT claim the feature has merit. I was only referring to it as an
example of an idea that might be adaptable to Amibroker. I am sure a more
useful design is possible. The Stock Analyzer is a nice little application
with some clever features but is no where near being in the same league as
Amibroker.

Most of the SA users are aware of the weakness you mention. To us it is a
"toy" feature, just something to play with. In fact, I have never used it
for actual consideration.

A similar future bar that is based on recent range average might work as a
"what if" tool.

Rik,
how often the % change of Close is the same with the % of High ?
The statistics is dramatic.
In 788 bars since Jan3, 2000, we have 787 ROCs per N100 stock, ie
79487 ROCs [include the 100 N100 stocks plus the index ^NDX]
>From an exploration

ROCclose=ROC(C,1);
ROChigh=ROC(H,1);
Filter=ROCclose==ROChigh;
AddColumn(ROCclose,"");
AddColumn(ROChigh,"");
AddColumn(LastValue(Cum(1)),"");
I see 78 results, ie ~1/1000,
from
ROCclose=ROC(C,1);
ROClow=ROC(L,1);
Filter=ROCclose==ROClow;
AddColumn(ROCclose,"");
AddColumn(ROClow,"");
I see 86/79487
and if I try your suggestion ROChigh==ROCclose==ROClow it is
impossible.
Consequently, you hypothesis for same % is out of reality and does
not allow any speculation.
It is not easy and you should reconsider the hypothesis, perhaps.
Thank you for your reply.
