SCTR Scan showing net change over different time frames

There seem to be two ways to do it with the rank by statement- using the PctChange( ) function, or, by simple subtraction.

The subtraction method sprouts an error from the advanced editor, but check syntax says its ok and it runs with what seem like valid results (although I didn't check).

The actual figures show up on the results page, but you lose the figures when you save to a list. But you can keep the order when you save to a list. Also you could try the "download to csv" option if you have spreadsheet software.


[favorites list is 3] // 10 10 01 00 (w8) XLE OL + + + ENERGY $DJUS OL Integrated Oil and Gas

//rank by PctChange(5, SCTR)

//rank by [SCTR - 5 days ago SCTR]

Choose a list from your Chart List drop down under the scan window - don't type it in - select it and add it.

Then copy in the two lines that begin with //

Run one or the other by deleting the //

You can have only one active "rank by" statement in a scan, and it MUST be the last statement.
