Michael,
i am trying to use your data to establish dividend adjusted prices. I
have done this for 50 stocks for a couple of years or so in excel but
it is tedious to update and get back into AB.
I want to write out the cumulative dividend as an exploration, so i
need to match the ex dividend date to the current bar date.
when i try to compare the -DIVD data with the vanilla price data on
DATE i get a type mismatch.
my code snippet looks like so, having selected ANZ as a test case:
/*part of dividend adjustment - determine cumulative dividend*/
x=StrLeft(Name(),3);
select=StrLeft(x,3)=="ANZ" AND StrLen(Name())==3;
Filter= select;
divfile=x+"-DIVD";
fd=Foreign(divfile,"Date");
dd=StrLeft(fd,2); //get type error here
Any hint on how to perform the match betwoeen the two files?
once i get a match i can write out the cumulative dividend, and then
i can backwards adjust the OHLC to create a "-DA" file which would
allow dividend insensitive backtesting.
