Re: [amibroker] Creating a Year over Year comparison screen

["Steve Dugas" <sjdugas@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi - Here is a little tool I wrote a while back. Drop as many copies as you 
want on the same chart, 1 for each year, then open params and shift them by 
multiples of 250. Then you can fine-tune them to match the dates by looking 
at the chart, which shows bars shifted in parens followed by the date in 
DateNum() format. You can ignore the commas in the date or delete the 
separator in your prefs.

HTH.
Steve
