RE: [amibroker] Problems with Foreign()

["Ed Cottrell" <emc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I definitely do not have any data holes for the stocks I’m viewing. They mostly trade very heavily (GOOG, MSFT, HD, etc.).

 

Thanks for the ideas, though!

Make sure the stock you are viewing does not have data holes.

 

If you are viewing a stock that trades lightly, you will also not see volumes for the bars missing from the stock.

Subject: [amibroker] Problems with Foreign()

 

Hello all,

 

I am using Foreign() to calculate STIX (an advance/decline stat). I have already used AddToComposite to count advances and declines over a certain group of stocks and store that info in the volume for ~AdvIss and ~DecIss.

 

Here’s my problem: if I plot one of those composites using Foreign(“~AdvIss”, “V”), the output depends on which stock I am viewing in my main chart. For some stocks, I get the actual volume number stored in ~AdvIss; for the rest, I get zero.

 

What am I doing wrong here?

 

Thanks,

Ed
