Topic: Morningstar Sub_industry
Posted: Friday, April 13, 2012 6:06:01 PM

Hello,

Before in TC you were able to choose the morningstar groups.   One you like one, you can have it expand to show the sub-groups within that main group and eventually show all the stocks part of the group.

 

How do you do that in the new version?

Thanks Bruce...I appreciate the assistance on this.

In Telechart I would look for stocks in which each of the past 2 days had lower closing highs than their prior day.  Is there a way for me to do this with Blocks without using RealCode?  If not can you guys give me a template to build such a scan.

Thanks, Doug
Topic: Seasonal Patterns on Blocks SW - Question for Julia Oldenstadt or Others
Posted: Tuesday, October 9, 2007 6:41:40 PM
Hi Julia,

Really nice job last week in Atlanta.  You may recall I was the one that asked about the seasonal chart patterns in Blocks and you showed me some pre-programmed charts that had 10 years of price charts overlayed, another that had the average of the 10 years, and a 3rd with monthly bar charts performance. 

How can I get access to that for my Blocks program?

Thanks, Doug
Topic: Plotting Pivot Points
Posted: Monday, January 15, 2007 7:53:11 PM
Hi, was wondering if you had any luck programming the Pivot Points into Snapsheets?? I have done it on Telechart but the Telechart looks at weekly bars as the last 5 rolling days and monthly as the last 20 rolling days. Snapsheets looks at weekly as M-F periods and monthly as a calendar month which is exactly what I am seeking (and probably the same for you).

I cannot figure out how to place the pivot points into Snapsheets however. Any help or progress would be much appreciated. My friend said he was going to Tradestation where they are part of the canned package but I hate to do that when I have such a long history with Telecharts and really prefer them at this time.

Thanks

Anybody figure out how to move these calculations for Pivot Points over to Snapsheets as of yet? Seems like there's a lot of interest from the users in Pivot Points so I'm sure somebody must be working on this already.

If so please let me know where I can go to apply these to Snapsheets. I've done the video training but do not feel ready to tackle this one!

I have the Pivot Points working on Telechart but it is not as helpful as it should be because their weekly chart bars are the last rolling 5 days and the same thing for monthly. In Snapsheets this is fixed to M-F for prior week and calendar month for prior month.

However I don't know how to transport my formulaes over to Snapsheets. Any help would be readily appreciated.

Hi guys. I have figured out using the Custom indicators in Telechart how to program pivot points including R1/R2 and S1/S2/S3 in the regular telechart program. Just did it this morning and it seems to be oK.

However, I just got the bad news that Telechart only has bars for the prior rolling 5 bars under its "Weekly" charts and 20ish bars for its "Monthly" charts. I have since been directed that Snapsheets breaks weekly into the last M-F period monthly into the last calendar month which is how I want it to appear.

So what I am looking for now is a way to "convert" my 1-line formulaes in Telechart into SnapSheets so they will appear there on the daily, weekly and monthly timeframes.

My next desire will be to figure out how to establish the pivot point and R/S lines as a horizontal line on the chart based on the last bar's calculation rather than a dynamic ( changing ) line based on each periodic bar. I think Snapsheets has a way to perhaps name the pivot lines and toggle them visible or invisible but I'm not sure. Also I'd like to think Snapsheets has a way to show me the actual values of each line similar to the way they are displayed in a window when you hit the period button twice on the Telechart screen.

Ideas from Worden Trainers on this?

Per the questions from my inquiry. To Doug H. - yes I think you've got the gist of what I'm after. The description given to me by the makers of the other pkg. is as follows: "It looks at the last 120 days closing prices of data and breaks them into quarters. A percentage change is calculated on each quarter and then the percentage changes are averaged, with twice the weight placed on the most recent quarter's data." Thus what I am seeking is the performance of the stock over the past 120 days weighted towards the recent quarter. They call this their relative strength short term report. My purpose for this would be to compare several instruments against one another for stock (ETF) momentum selection. I'm wondering with Doug H's calculation if we should be dividing by 5 or by 4 in your step 5. Perhaps jynkin has it with the percentage return example but since I'm not very familiar with the PCF formula syntax I can't quite grasp it?

Hi Guys,

I am trying to emulate an indicator that exists in another package (but I'd much prefer to use Telechart) so perhaps you can tell me how I can set something up like it in Telechart. What I want to do is to calculate the relative performance of various ETF's by dividing the last 120 days of price close data into 4 groups of 30 days each with equal (normal) weighting for the first 3 groups of 30 days and then double weighting the most recent 30 days. So basically what I'm looking for is the relative performance of the ETF's (comparatively speaking) by comparing their relative performance over the past 120 days while double weighting the most recent 30 days of that overall 120 day performance period. Please let me know if there's a way I can do this with Telechart. Thanks, Doug
