I shared a $DEMO chart containing both the 2 bars 100 periods avg % move and a volume ratio that compare the last two volume bars versus the last 100. I think...

I found this '99 article from the Futures Magazine where they discuss the quality of various EOD data providers. CSI seem to have a very low error rate...
I have developed a scan for an Automatic Trend line breech. The scan seems to function appropriately, however my expectation that the trend line will be...
Well, with certain combinations of settings, there may just not be any trendlines available to fit the description...in which case you won't see any. This...
I want to calculate the standard deviation of close to close % price change for the last 100 bars. The standard STAT formula has a % Change data point, so I...
