Re: [amibroker] Re: Corr Matrix via Gfx functions, AmiBroker Email List Archive

Make sure you choose a watchlist (via
Parameters) that has at least 2 but does not have too many securities
in it, say less than 50 if you use 1 pane.

Also, as is generally the case in AB, cross-sectional analysis (i.e.
matrix calculations across stocks) is very computer intensive.
