You can not do what you ask with a Quotes Plus Scan. Quotes Plus does
not have the capability to calculate simple statistics like counting the
number of rising or declining stocks or calculating averages. This is
because Quotes Plus does not have static variables. Instead variables
are reset to their initial conditions when a Quotes Plus Scan moves on
to the next stock in a list.
One way around this short coming is to import the output of your scan
into Excel and use Excel to calculate your statistics.

Hi,
I need to write a scan to output the following historical data for a
list of
stocks:
- Advancing number of issues
- Declining number of issues
- Advancing volume
- Declining Volume
Basically, the scan would, starting back at the number of bars
prescribed,
go through the list and
1) tag the advancing and declining stocks from close to prior close
2) add the total number of advancing, print that number
3) add the total number of declining, print that number
4) add the volume of the advancing, print that number
5) add the volume of the declining, print that number
6) go to the next day, and do the same.
I would be grateful with some assistance in writing this scan. Thanks,
Bijan
