Gary, Bob, Sean or anyone: Do you know of a way to round off numbers in QP2 formulas -- not in the output, but within formulas? I'm looking for a way to round products and quotients within formulas to the nearest integer. I know how to do this in the output, of course, but I need a way to do it in equations. Metastock has the "round," "floor" and "ceiling" functions. Is there anything comparable in QP2? Let's say, for example, that you want to divide the close by 2 and then round it off. Then you want to work with that rounded number in the next equation in the scan. The reason I need it is to look for whole-number multiples of data.

What say, kids?

(Plan B: If there isn't a way to do it, and I can't pursue my arcane formula, is there a way to compel stocks that are going down to go up -- or vice versa? You must admit it's a compelling idea.)
