Hi,

I was trying to perform a visual sort on a 60 day linear regression on price. Correct me if im worng, but isn't a negative value supposed to depict a downward slope and vice versa? Then how come I am getting positive sloping LRs for negative values? Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Could you provide some examples? It might be possible for a slope calculation to seem incorrect if part of the Linear Regression is negative, but I just tried several sorts using both a Visual Slope and Percent Slope of a Linear Regression of Price and the slope came out correctly for every symbol I checked.
