I've done that. I'm working with data from your canadian datafeed for blocks. I'm starting to think that this  indicator can only be calculated on watchlists (and data?) from Telechart. Is this correct?

thanks, Craig.  I did what you said, in the pane, the little box now reads, "my positions" but there is not chart of the watchlist average ... there is no chart at all ...

Bruce - When I click on that watchlilst average indicator, up comes the nasdaq 100, not the watchlist which i want to turn into an index. 

I have read quite a bit about blocks, been to a training session and have used computers since 1984. So, I'm not a newbie, but somehow I haven't yet "gotten" the drift of how blocks works. please, HELP. TIA. JfGunter

Great discussion. We're talking about the web library for Blocks here? Bruce, do you know precisely how the indicator is referred to? Is it simply "watchlist average"? TIA - jfgunter

What I mean by equal investment is equal DOLLAR investment. So, there would be initially 1 share of the $20 stock, 1.33 shares of the $15 stock, 2 shares of the $10 stock, 4 shares of the $5 stock . 

I'd like to be able to track on a chart and a data sheet the progress of this index daily, weekly, monthly. 

I'll appreciate any guidance on how to create my index. Thankx inadvance.

PS: for the suggestion box, it would be good to post PROMINENTLY on this site, that it only works with Internet Exploiter. I tried with Firefox, but couldn't get it to load properly. Thanks in advance. ...

I'd like to create an equal dollar index frmo some stocks I am following. I saw an index created in the live training I went to, but didn't retain how to do it.



The stocks in question range from under a dollar to several dollars in price, and I'd like to assign an equal "investment" to each of 10-20 of them, and have Blocks create an index that i can see updated on a chart each day.



Thanks in advance for help on how to do this. pls. email to (email removed by Moderator)



Thanx

Thanks, Bruce. Are you saying this formula alone, as a watchlist column, monitors BOTH change in MACD-H and in weekly EMA?

I want to scan a list of preferred stocks for weekly change in "impulse" meaning change in both 13 wk EMA and MACD-H. Need to know when both have ticked up, and when both have ticked down.

I need a PCF to assess up or down movement in 13 wk. EMA and weekly MACD-H.

Perhaps indicate (in watchlist value +1 for up, 0 for no change, -1 for down.

I don't see how to do a PCF which looks at MACD-H. Would also appreciate help on how to implement EMA PCF.

Sorry, Im a long-time worden subscriber, but newbie to programming.

Thanx in advance.
