I have created a column on a watch list that lists the value of an indicator that I use to determine my stop level.  Is there a way to create another column that lists the percentage difference between that value and the current price of the stock ?  That of course would allow me to quickly determine my risk in the trade.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Can your indicator be expressed as a formula?

If you want the percent that price is above or below a formula.

100 * (C / (your formula here) - 1)

If you want the percent the formula is above or below price.

100 * ((your formula here) / C - 1)

The parenthese are important, leave them all in when replacing your formula here with whatever formula is being used as the indicator for your stop.
