Not sure if I can do this with Telechart but I thought I'd ask.

I want to create a calculated field for display in the watchlist that shows the average of 1/3/6/12 month returns. I would then want to sort based on this field.

Is this possible to do with Telechart?

Thanks in advance,

dmwr

Very helpful - for reference, I used the following:

AVG(((C/C21*100)-100),((C/C63*100)-100),((C/C125*100)-100),((C/C250*100)-100))

Does this look right in terms of what I was trying to do?

Thanks!

This is your PCF?

You are trying to average them into one value?

You would have to use this format:

(1month%+3month%+6month%+1year%)/4


(you are creating an average by adding the
4 values and dividing by 4)


Thanks

Try this:

((((C-C21)/C21) + ((C-C63)/C63) + ((C-C126)/C126) + ((C-C252)/C252))/4)*100
