Before shooting a note over to feedback@tc2000.com I just wanted to make sure I understand PCFs correctly...

I've used StockFinder & RealCode in the past, but never TeleChart 2007. I'm now trying to migrate over to TC2000 so PCFs are still relatively new to me.

If I understand the help documentation correctly, the only indicators (other than the obvious price & volume) that can be referenced in a PCF are:

  • STOC = Stochastics - For a 12 period stochastic with a %K of 5 you would use STOC12.5
  • BOP = Balance of Power
  • TSV = Time Segmented Volume
  • MS = MoneyStream
  • OBV = On Balance Volume

What about the other indicators in the indicator library? I don't use any of the indicators listed above.

My indicator cocktail consists of (but is not limited to):

  • RSI
  • Wm%R
  • PPO
  • ADX
  • Accum/Dist
  • TRIN
  • TRINQ
  • TRIX
  • CCI
Can these indicators be used in a PCF?

It depends, depending on how complex the indicator.

I am trying to create a PCF which breaks 120 trading days into 4 quarters and gives 2X weighting on % change to the 1st of the quarters (30 trading days). I am attempting to evaaluate which ETFs in my universe have the highest relative strength based on this calculation. Please help!


Thanks.

Average percent change for last 4 thirt day periods with the most recent period given twice the weighting of the first three:

((((C-C30)/C30 * 100) * 2) + ((C30-C60)/C60 * 100) + ((C60-C90)/C90 * 100) + ((C90-C120)/C120 * 100)) / 5

Make sure you haven't pasted any extra characters in there.  I just tested in TeleChart 2007 and TC2000 v11 and it works fine.  The "market days needed..." message isn't an error, it's just information on how much data will be used in the calculation.

A formula for a 55-Period CCI could be written as:

(H + L + C - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) * 11000 / 3 / (ABS(H + L + C - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H1 + L1 + C1 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H2 + L2 + C2 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H3 + L3 + C3 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H4 + L4 + C4 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H5 + L5 + C5 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H6 + L6 + C6 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H7 + L7 + C7 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H8 + L8 + C8 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H9 + L9 + C9 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H10 + L10 + C10 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H11 + L11 + C11 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H12 + L12 + C12 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H13 + L13 + C13 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H14 + L14 + C14 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H15 + L15 + C15 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H16 + L16 + C16 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H17 + L17 + C17 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H18 + L18 + C18 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H19 + L19 + C19 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H20 + L20 + C20 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H21 + L21 + C21 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H22 + L22 + C22 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H23 + L23 + C23 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H24 + L24 + C24 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H25 + L25 + C25 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H26 + L26 + C26 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H27 + L27 + C27 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H28 + L28 + C28 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H29 + L29 + C29 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H30 + L30 + C30 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H31 + L31 + C31 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H32 + L32 + C32 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H33 + L33 + C33 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H34 + L34 + C34 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H35 + L35 + C35 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H36 + L36 + C36 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H37 + L37 + C37 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H38 + L38 + C38 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H39 + L39 + C39 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H40 + L40 + C40 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H41 + L41 + C41 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H42 + L42 + C42 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H43 + L43 + C43 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H44 + L44 + C44 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H45 + L45 + C45 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H46 + L46 + C46 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H47 + L47 + C47 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H48 + L48 + C48 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H49 + L49 + C49 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H50 + L50 + C50 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H51 + L51 + C51 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H52 + L52 + C52 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H53 + L53 + C53 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + ABS(H54 + L54 + C54 - AVGH55 - AVGL55 - AVGC55) + .000001)
