Alright, I had another idea.  Please let me know your opinion on 
whether this will work before I undergo,

15 Most Active +/-
------------------
1. AddToComposite of Volume and ChangeinPrice (+1,-1,0) as separate 
fields in TICKER1 (use V and C fields, respectively) for all tickers 
in market for one day
2. Find Highest Value (Using HIGHEST() or HIGHESTBARS()) in the 
Volume of TICKER1 and copy the corresponding ChangeinPrice value to 
field H.
3. Set the old highest value to "0" or Null
4. Repeat 2,3 for fifteen highest volumes
5. Sum the H field in TICKER1 values and place in TICKER2 at current 
date
