[amibroker] Re: storing and using FLOAT data

Thanks.   I'll take a look at that indicator although I think I'm 
doing something a little different.   I've noticed that some very 
successful traders seem to like to trade on low float stocks that 
have high volume, so I'm scanning for stocks that have a volume (on 
a given day or consecutive days) higher than a certain % of their 
float.    

I'll look at QP2 / 3 but I've got a few sources for float data 
already so I'm hoping to find a way just to store it internally so 
my scan goes a bit faster.

Thanks
