I'll take a different tact - let me assume you just want to display
the ranking on the screen rather than a backtest - so that's an
Exploration.
Here's quick sample Exploration - I'm not saying there is any value to
these measurements - they are for demonstration only.
MAShort = MA (C,20);
MALong = MA (C,100);
PS = ROC(C,250);
MAps = MA(PS,50); //Do a calculation based on another number
BuySignal = MAShort > MALong;
SellSignal = MAShort < MALong;
Filter = Status("lastbarinrange"); //Filter to only show last bar
AddColumn( BuySignal,"Buy");
AddColumn( SellSignal,"Sell");
AddColumn( C, "Close");
AddColumn( MAShort,"MAShort");
AddColumn( MALong,"MALong");
AddColumn( PS,"PositionScore");
AddColumn( MAps,"MA of PS");
SetSortColumns(-3); //this sets the sorting column
