RE: [amibroker] IBD Relative Strength

[Fred S. Esch]

The Spyglass plug in creates separate files for each security within a few minutes in Metastock.  The subsequent Exploration then requires about 10 minutes to process nearly 8000 stocks.  It really does work surprisingly well.  Please understand that I am not a programmer and have no idea why it is so fast.  I can only say that the strongest stocks from the strongest industries certainly have very pretty charts.  The plug in has several other very nice features as well.  I would certainly like to see the developer and Thomas get together on this.   With kind regards,   Fred   From: amibroker@yahoogroups.com [mailto:amibroker@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Graham Sent: Thursday, September 07, 2006 7:01 PM To: amibroker@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [amibroker] IBD Relative Strength   yes it does become a resources hog as each symbol must be compared to all the symbols in the group if you have 8,000 then the total usage 8000 loop calculations each for 8,000 symbols =  is 64,000,000 Can really slow down the running -- Cheers Graham AB-Write >< Professional AFL Writing Service Yes, I write AFL code to your requirements http://e-wire.net.au/~eb_kavan/ab_write.htm On 08/09/06, Randy Harmelink <[EMAIL PROTECTED]com> wrote: I would think this would be a huge resource hog -- to calculate and then rank a value against 8000+ stocks for each period shown on a chart?  Even with a very shaky assumption that all of the data used in the computation had already been downloaded for each of those 8000+ stocks!
