Bob this comes into
one of those ongoing debates over the value of including non traded days over
including them. There is an effect on the indicators, but whether this is valid
or not I think comes to your own interpretation.
Personally I would
like to see non traded days only when the market is open, and public holidays
excluded from the charts. but this facility is not available from data suppliers
that I know of.

H=L and V=0
Most
vendors set O = H = L = C == Ref(C,-1) for zero-V days,
Al.
To do
otherwise would trash most indicators.

I also use
QP2 so ran your scan on a watch list of stocks with MA(V,10)
>250K.
<SPAN
class=315273903-04072003>This 1301-stock
list had 22452 errors; 5152 with V==0.
Of the
remaining 17,300, 4300 had V <= 1000 shares; these clearly
could have been a single transaction.
I'm
therefore not surprised by the overall % errors he two tests
showed.

Thanks, Graham. I use QP2 EOD data, so I
thought the QP2 folks eliminated what you call 'padded' data. I'll write
them an email and ask.

Sounds like
your data you receive is padded, ie non traded days are included in the
data as zero volume and the C = yesterdays close with
o=h=l=c
This is common
in Australia to use this form, but I don't know if used anywhere
else.

[amibroker] H=L and V=0
Hi, everyone:
Tonight, I thought I'd do a quickie exploration of a watchlist
containing almost 800 stocks (range setting on all quotations). I was
interested in finding out how many times the high was equal to the low
or the volume equaled 0. I used the following exploration:
Buy=Sell=Short=Cover=<FONT color=#ff6820
size=2>0;Error = H==L<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" size=2> OR V==<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" color=#ff6820 size=2>0<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" size=2>;<FONT color=#0000ff
size=2>AddColumn(H,<FONT color=#ff00ff
size=2>"H",<FONT color=#ff6820
size=2>1.2);<FONT color=#0000ff
size=2>AddColumn(L,<FONT color=#ff00ff
size=2>"L",<FONT color=#ff6820
size=2>1.2);<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" color=#0000ff size=2>AddColumn<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" size=2>(V,<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" color=#ff00ff size=2>"V"<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" size=2>,<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" color=#ff6820 size=2>1<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" size=2>);<FONT color=#0000ff
size=2>AddColumn(Error,<FONT color=#ff00ff
size=2>"Bad Price Patterns",<FONT
color=#ff6820 size=2>1);<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" size=2>Filter=Error><FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" color=#ff6820 size=2>0<FONT
face="Microsoft Sans Serif" size=2>;
To my surprise, I found over 13,000 instances of H==L and almost
2,700 instances of V==0. On the days when V==0, the H and L were also
equal. So, those days were truly bad data (or non-trade) days. However,
in the other 10,000+ instances when H==L, there was legitimate volume,
sometimes high volume. What does it mean when the price bars are all
equal (O=H=L=C), yet volume was finite?
