Sean, Bob,
M. thanks for the tips. I'm still unclear where "convention" would exactly place the added lines in your suggestions, i.e. where integers / variables can be called and modified within the code sequence; are there any repetive, unnecessary or misbegotten instances as I've written it here. It seems to perform as intended (tho I don't really understand why <g>), but would appreciate opinions of any blatant code-inefficiency suggestions. You're great teachers. I'm a slow pupil.
// BBB (by R. Estes) variation of the 5pctvol.scn looped 17 days
output="Bbbloop.lst";
ProcessMS = "c:\meta\bbbloop",MSDATA;
integer i,j;
j:=0;
For i = 0 to -17 step -1
Do
If j=0 and // <<<----added this-------<<<
Close(i) > Min(i-1,i-5,cl)*1.05 and
Close(i) > Max(i-1,i-260,cl)*.85 and
Vol(i) >= AvgVol(i,-65) and
AvgVol(i,-130) >= 30000 and
Vol(i) >= 30000 and
QRS(i) > 80 then
j:=j+1; // <<<----added this-------<<<
println symbol;
endif;
next i; |
