[amibroker] Re: Setting the start date for "Relative Performance" indicator

["a1ex_douglas" <a1ex_douglas@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Stephane,

I might try that next.  In the meantime, I've fiddled around with 
some of the other suggestions and come up with a slight variation 
which seems to work well - code below.

This is the best solution so far, but it would still be nice 
(Tomasz...) if we were able to choose the date for the first visible 
bar on the left side of the chart...

Thanks all,
Alex.

_SECTION_BEGIN("Relative Performance");


TickerList = ParamStr
("Tickers", "^AXJO,^AXDJ,^AXEJ,^AXFJ,^AXHJ,^AXIJ,^AXMJ,^AXNJ,^AXPJ,^A
XSJ,^AXTJ,^AXUJ,^AXXJ");


fvb = SelectedValue(C);

Plot((100 * ( C - fvb ) / fvb), Name(), colorBlack, styleThick=4 );

for( i = 0; ( symbol = StrExtract( TickerList, i ) ) !=""; i++ )
{
fc = Foreign( symbol, "C" );

fcb = SelectedValue(Foreign( symbol, "C" ));

if( ! IsNull( fc[ 0 ] ) )
{
 Plot( 100 * ( fc - fcb )/ fcb, symbol, colorBrown + ( (2*i) % 15 ), 
styleLine);
}
}

Plot(0,"0",colorGrey50,1|styleNoLabel|styleNoTitle);

_N(Title = "{{NAME}} - ASD - Relative Performance [%]: {{VALUES}}");
_SECTION_END();


----------------
