TC2000 does however have some commodity ETN, ETF, and Index Funds which might, to some degree, track the actual commodities.
|
Thanks, Bruce.
So, price percent change is just a direct calculation, whereas price growth rate gives the annualized growth rate over the period in question. Is that correct?
|
Nevermind. I misinterpreted.
Price percent change for one year is the same as price growth rate for one year.
|
Bruce,
Your formula sure looks like price percent change to me.
A stock going from 100 to 200 (100% change) would give:
100 * 200 / 100 - 100 = 100
A stock going from 100 to 150 (50% change) would give:
100 * 150 / 100 - 100 = 50

Well said, Mike.
My head is spinning. Let me know if I've left something out:
1. Blocks 1.3 - free, Backscanner $499/year 1/2 price special, both use Telechart data feed.
2. Backscanner reduced to $29.99/month - original subscribers get it for $14.99 as long as they continuously subscribe. Still use TeleChart data feed.
3. Blocks 2.0 free, Backscanner free. Data feed (non-TeleChart) is $99.99/year. Does not support TeleChart data feed.
4. The latest note says we pay for Blocks and Backscanner, but there are package deals available when combined with TeleChart. Data feed is $??.??/year and it comes from Mars.
Please give us a detailed description of all options/prices before they change again.

Bruce,
Can you create and manage watchlists in Blocks 2 without TeleChart?
QUOTE (Bruce_L) marcj,
You can operate Blocks 2 without TeleChart.

It is possible for some institutions to also be insiders, and thus be counted in both categories.

QUOTE (Craig_S) Annualized % is the trade percentage divided by the ratio of number of days in trade divided by 365.
Actually, (I think) the divisor Worden uses would be about 250 (trading days per year), because weekends and holidays are not counted for the days in trade calculation.
By the way, this method does not give true annualized gain. A 10% gain for half a year is not 20% annualized, it is 21% due to compounding.
I would prefer that the percent gain calculated by BackScanner represent the actual annual gain based on either an equal amount invested for each trade, or the amount of the previous sale of a stock reinvested in the next buy for that stock (user selectable). Days out of the stock could either show 0% gain or a user-specified gain for short-term funds in a money market account.

I'm not sure if this is the reason in this instance, but I think you can use invisible BOP to color the price bars green, yellow, or red for positive, neutral, or negative, respectively.

Thanks Craig. So I guess that means that a mutual fund manager whose fund holds MDC might also be an officer or board member of MDC? That sounds like a conflict of interest with the potential for trading based on insider knowledge.
I still don't understand why the News section of Worden Studio has different data for % held by institutions and % held by insiders than TC2005. Does the data come from different sources or cover different time periods?
