Hi,

Is there a quick way to write pcfs for back testing purposes? For example, if one would want to write a pcf for the 20 period ATR 365 days ago, then 364, 363, 362. etc. Right now, the only way is to input the changes manually which can lead to errors.

Thanks.

You can create Custom Indicators and Custom Percent True Indicators to view past values of Personal Criteria Formulas, but I cannot think of a quick way to alter the PCFs themselves. I generally create spreadsheets to create past versions of PCFs, but detailed instructions on how to do so is beyond what is covered in the forums.
