In the first half of 2005, I bought a new faster
computer with the XP Pro64 operating system and an AMD 64 Dual
Processor.
The only minor problem has been the lack of
a 64 bit driver for a printer that I have.
The 64bit operating system and computer have
worked very well. Ron D

I should have added For ME it's not worth
the trade off yet.
But more skillful folks will surely
benefit. Undoubtedly we'll
have to move to Window 64.

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

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.

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

- 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.
