Thanks Jim.
I'll do that and send you the most recent
note.
Don't know if strength in numbers will help but
it should! I don't have a count but it's a bit of revenue for
Gary.
On 64 bits, the trade off of a new windows
installation vs a stable desk top is not worth it yet.
Best regards
JOE

GetExtraData
Please add me to the QP3 list as well. I use them for my data
source and I would appreciate an x64 plugin with more access to the data
provided in QP.

Hello there - Guess we have some common interest. CANSLIM
first.
I'm assuming you have Stock Picker Pro installed with
your QP3? It comes with the QP3 CD for no additional charge.
SPP
has dozens of filters, one of which is called CANSLIM.
I've attached a
screen shot and you'll see that at least 2 of the data fields needed are
not exposed by the AB plugin that Tomasz has
provided us, like CQIE and
CYIE. A couple of options 1) if important enough maybe we could talk
Tomasz into adding
those 2 extra fields in the plug in, or 2) ask
someone who has the skills with the AB SDK could take the plug in
and
extend it for those 2 fields. I've never fired up the SDK myself and not
sure I have all the elements in my development desktop
to do
this. I run the CANSLIM filter on QP3 and get somewheres around
175-200 good stocks every day that form a small universe of
stocks
with good fundamentals and price change momentum.
3) EPS is an array and if
you plot it you'll see it changes every quarter. So by either running an
explore or a plot you can
see if Ref(EPSarray,-66) works or
not. I'd take it outside the reference function just to be
conservative like
EPSArray = GetExtradata("EPS");
1) and 2) Lots of
good documentation in SPP, like the following that should remove any doubt
in your mind as to what the fields are.
We had a 'birds of a feather' meeting at the
Amibroker Conference in Houston and there were about 12 QP3 users there. I
have a distribution
list that I'm adding your name to and if you don't
want to be copied on some of our mailings please let me know and I'll take
you off it.
Dan Clark is very active and has been providing
information for the forum, to our group and feed back to the owner of
Quotes Plus, hopefully to some avail.
Hope this helps.

% 5Yr EPS

Description: 5 Year Earnings Per Share Growth
The
percentage change in current fiscal year earnings compared to five years
ago fiscal year earnings .

Filter
category: Fund Earnings

CYIE
Description:
Continuous Yearly Improvement in Earnings Per Share
The objective is to
find securities with year after year of continuous EPS growth for the past
3 years. The year is based on a trailing twelve month (TTM ) basis.
The yearly difference between the most recent EPS quarter and the same
quarter a year ago is computed. This backwards computation is done to
arrive at 4 yearly EPS values. If the difference for most recent
yearly EPS value is greater than the previous year (not equal) we add one
to the count. This type of backwards comparison goes on until one of
two events occur:
- All 3 yearly time periods have been processed or
- The security fails with a yearly comparison that doesn't increase,
the process will stop and the count is recorded
The process
results in a number from 0 – 3. A security with consecutive upward
yearly progress will get a value of 3 (3 years of steady
upward
% 1Yr EPS Gr
(TTM)
Description: 1 Year Earning Per Share Growth
(trailing 4 quarters)
The percentage change using the sum of the
last 4 quarters of EPS
compared to the sum of the prior 4 quarters
of EPS . This is a current 4 quarter over the previous 4 quarters
EPS comparison as opposed to the data fields:
EPS Chg which is comparing the current quarters EPS to the same
quarter a year ago.
% 1Yr EPS Gr which is comparing the current fiscal year
EPS to the prior fiscal year EPS .

- I have a few questions about the fundamental data coming out of
QP3
- that I hoped someone here could answer:
- I'm pretty sure that sales and sharesfloat are reported in millions
- (e.g. "1.2" means 1,200,000), and sharesshort are reported in
- thousands (e.g. "1,200" means 1,200,000), but I don't know about
- some of the others.
- 1) TTMSales? I can't think of any way to make this a real number.
- 2) TTMEPS? It looks like it could just be normal, but I'd like to
- make sure.
- 3) Earnings growth numbers (Y1, Y5, and projections)? One would
- expect percentage (e.g. "12" = 12%), is this the case?
- One final question: Since "EPS" is an array, does that mean I can
- get historical EPS by using Ref(GetExtraData("EPS"),-#)? If so, I've
- tried that and it didn't seem to work. Is there another way to do
it?
- I'm trying to set up some sort of CANSLIM type of exploration. So,
- if anyone has any ideas on that, I would really appreciate the
help.
- Thank you.
