Ok, looking at how some of you are using the date function, I was able
to get it to work using this.
Base:= Year()=2007 AND Month()=1 AND DayOfMonth()=3; That allows me
to program in a base date that I can then use as a starting point in
comparing various ETF's to each other.
All I'm really doing is dividing todays value by the value on the base
date for each ETF and plotting it. Laying multiple ETF's for multiple
markets and cap sizes to see what's moving and what's possibly the
next mover. That allows me to lay various markets in the same chart
and see at a glance who is trending and in what direction.
