Does Tracking % (trk%) reflect stock splits? It seems like it does not.

Thank you.

No, it does not take into account splits.

Then is there any way I can find performance of an equity from a certain date? 

Thank you.

Custom Date Sort should take into account splits.

Custom Date sort is static. It is not exactly what I want. I want something like P&L% for a watch list column, something that reflects price change dynamically. 

Is it possible to access trk% and stock split information in PCF?

Thank you.

No, it is not possible to reference any of tracking values or split information in a Personal Criteria Formula.

Just out of curiosity, if trk% doesn't reflect splits, what is this for?

How can I use trk%?

Thank you.

H'12/19/17' have this to tell me what was yesterday's high, and I have this to tell me how much the stock is up from yesterday's high (C-H'12/18/17')

Now I want to know how do i write a formula to know the percentage gain or loss from today's price and the high of 12/19

Please try the following.

100 * (C / H'12/19/2017' - 1)

It should show a negative sign, but there is no way to add the positive sign or the % symbol.
