[amibroker] YROC system and CPI data



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

Hello

I came across an old discussion in the archives. The topic was the YROC
system.

YROC Formula.
1. TB < TB (24 weeks ago)
2. GB < GB (24 weeks ago)
3. C_CPI < C_CPI (24 weeks ago)

 Where:
 TB = 90 day Treasury Bill
 GB = 30 year Treasury Bond
 C_CPI = Change in the Consumer Price Index from the previous month.

Buy if two or more of 1-3 above are true.
Sell otherwise.

I am wondering if anyone can tell me where I can get the CPI data in a
format which I can easily import into AB. I say easily because I am no
expert and although I found the data at this site

http://www.bls.gov/cpi/#data

I couldn't manage to get it into Excel in a format which I could then import
into AB. I am sure that this is elementary for some of you but...

I wouldn't mind charting this little system just for practice, and I know I
will have to figure out the whole GetForeign function in AB, but I want to
start using it anyway. Can anyone help me with getting the monthly CPI data
into a chart form, or in a form which I can call in AB?

Thanks, Nik
