I often get the same thing with my scans. Will be very interested in Bob's thoughts about this.

My usual goof, Rashid.
Max(0,-1,cl) looks at two days; I correctly adjusted start in the if statement, but
----
start := -130;
if daysloaded < 130 then
start := 1 -daysloaded;
endif;
----
will die with your syntax error if a stock has only 130 days;
Best way to deal with it is
---
issuetype common;
output = "myrange.lst";
float maxpr, minpr, max2min;
integer start, startmax;
daysrequired = 1;
startmax := -130; // set what you want here ****
start := 1 -daysloaded;
if start < startmax then
start:= startmax;
endif;

max2min := 2.50;
maxpr:=max(0,start,cl);
minpr:=min(0,start,cl);
if maxpr > max2min*minpr then
println symbol,",",maxpr/minpr:6:2,",",date(0),",",daysloaded,",",start;
endif;
