Hi John
Try this as an exploration column. Make sure you include at least 275 bars of data. Minimum Records will not produce a useful result and neither will securities with less than a full year of data Always test the various stages (variables) of an exercise like this in the Indicator Builder before attempting to run it in the Explorer. It's much easier to troubleshoot an indicator than an exploration.
A full explanation of the timing mechanism (Signal) will appear in the September issue of MetaStock Tips & Tools.
D:=DayOfMonth();
A:=LastValue(D);
M:=Month();
B:=LastValue(M);
Y:=M*31+D-(M>B OR (M=B AND D>A))*372;
Signal:=Y<Ref(Y,-1);
YearHigh:=LastValue(HighestSince(1,Signal,H));
YearLow:=LastValue(LowestSince(1,Signal,L));
Range:=YearHigh-YearLow;
100*Range/YearLow;
Regards
Roy

Subject: [EquisMetaStock Group] Calculate 52-week range
Since no one replied to my recent post, I may not have explained my
problem clearly. I am new to this,but all of my attempts have met with
syntax errors.
All I am trying to do is calculate in Explorer the most recent 52-week
range expressed as a percent of the 52-week Low price.
Thank you for any help you can provide.......John
