the line should be like this
ratio = Foreign("~10weeksA", "V")/Foreign("~10weeksB", "V");
I got something like this pic with 300 stocks
There is still some errors maily because of mixing of intraday and daily. I
presume you will have some stocks that have intraday bars while other have
only daily bars on that day

Hi Paul,
It's not your fault of course.
I don't think we are going anywhere with the code below, however. I
assume some typos, but maybe I assume too much. (There is no
~11weeks, for example, I presume.)
But even after fixing what I think are typos, my output is shown in
the png.
I think the number of people who can use this program without going
back to university is dwindling by the day. TJ ... do you hear me?
Very, very depressing.
