[amibroker] Correlation Question

Trading Reference Links

I've been writing some basic explorations using correlation and I've 
come up with a problem. When I perform an exploration with this code:

Filter = Close > 20;
AddColumn(Correlation(Close, Foreign("CR___CCS", "Close"), 
100), "CRB Index Correlation");

I get a correlation of 1 where CR___CCS intersects with itself, as I 
should.

But when I use this code I don't:

Filter = Close > 20;
AddColumn(Correlation(Close - Open, Foreign("CR___CCS", "Close - 
Open"), 100), "CRB Index Correlation");

I get a correlation of .12. Shouldn't the data be perfectly 
correlated? Is "close - open" not a recognized field under the 
foreign function? Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jacques
