Re: [EquisMetaStock Group] ROC Since Date

["Roy Larsen" <rlarsen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jeff


Try this.

D1:=Input("Day",1,31,4);
M1:=Input("Month",1,12,1);
Y1:= Input("Year",1900,2400,1999);
D:=DayOfMonth(); M:=Month(); Y:=Year();
Date:=D>=D1 AND M=M1 AND Y=Y1 OR Y>Y1 OR Y=Y1 AND M>M1;
Start:=Date AND Alert(Date=0,2);
StartVal:=ValueWhen(1,Start,C);
100*(C-StartVal)/StartVal;

  Subject: [EquisMetaStock Group] ROC Since Date


  I am currently using the following formula to calculate the rate of 
  change since a selected date:

  Day1 := Input("Day",1,31,4);
  Month1 := Input("Month",1,12,1);
  Year1 := Input("Year",1900,2400,1999);

  100 * (CLOSE - ValueWhen(1,DayOfMonth() = Day1 AND Month() = Month1 
  AND Year() = Year1, CLOSE))/ ValueWhen(1,DayOfMonth() = Day1 AND Month
  () = Month1 AND Year() = Year1,CLOSE) 

  The formula works on the daily chart but not on the weekly or monthly 
  charts, unless the specified date is the last trading day of the week 
  or month. If the date is not at the end of the week or month, I lose 
  the chart. Does anyone know how to change the formula so the date 
  will go to the last trading day of the week (if in the 
  weekly mode) and the last trading day of the month (if in the monthly 
  mode).
  Thanks for your help,
  Jeff
