size=2>Andrew,
I have 
not tried it as I prefer to reset at each scan but there appears to be a flag 
setting to disable this behavior....
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

flags - contains the sum of following 
values
  atcFlagResetValues = 1 - reset values at the beginning of scan 
  (recommended) 
  atcFlagCompositeGroup = 2 - put composite ticker into group 253 and 
  EXCLUDE all other tickers from group 253 (avoids adding composite to 
  composite) 
  atcFlagTimeStamp = 4 - put last scan date/time stamp into FullName field 
  atcFlagEnableInBacktest = 8 - allow running AddToComposite in 
  backtest/optimization mode 
  atcFlagEnableInExplore = 16 - allow running AddToComposite in exploration 
  mode 
  atcFlagDefaults = 7(this is a composition of atcFlagResetValues | 
  atcFlagCompositeGroup | atcFlagTimeStamp flags)
 
Regards, 
Jayson

Add To Composite QuestionAdd To Composite is a 
fantastic feature when trying to construct market filters.  Below in 
the basic AddToComposite AFL used to build a filter based on 5 Day Advance 
Decline data.   Diff = C - 
Ref(C,-5);AddToComposite(IIf(Diff>0,1,0), "~5D_Adv_Issues" 
,"x");AddToComposite(IIf(Diff<0,1,0) , "~5D_Dec_Issues" 
,"x");AddToComposite(1,"~ASX200_Count","x");I run this over the 
ASX200 stocks (essentially largest 200 stocks on Australian market).  
My problem / question is since AddToComposite calculates over all quotations 
of given stocks every time it is run, it is essentially recalulating itself 
entirely every day.  Problems arise when the composition of ASX200 
changes - Historical AddToComposite values will also change.  What I 
would like is to only update Todays value of composite and add this to the 
historical data.  Any 
suggestions?ThanksAndrewSend
