Brian,
Here is what I use:
//Year to date %change
Newyear = Year();
startValue=ValueWhen(Year()<Ref(Year(),1) ,Close,1);
EndValue1 = ValueWhen( Newyear, Close, 1);
Filter = Newyear;
AddColumn(Year(), "year", 1.0 );
AddColumn(100*( EndValue1 - StartValue )/StartValue, "Percentage change");
AddColumn(startvalue,"start");
AddColumn(EndValue1,"end");
Anthony
