Trying to compare percent change for a given time frame for several instruments. Some of the instruments need to have a multiplication factor so they are equalized. Currently I have each instrument charted with rate of change percentage study, then another chart with study price overlay for each Rate of change percentage study since it has a multiplier in settings/input. This works fine except, unable to change time frame comparisons, ie. 2 days,30 days etc, without having to change all charts time frames. Is there an easier way to set this up so I could change percentage change for a given time frame by just changing 1 chart. Tried price change since open and changed study input to first bar, but there is no multiplier option in order to equalize the instruments. Thank you |

With the percentage change since open study. Setting start time to first Bar of Chart and the multiplier is left @ 1 then percent change is accurate for all symbols . However if the multiplier is changed to 2 for example on 1 symbol, the percent change goes from -.13% (which is correct) to -100% and I was expecting it to be -.26%. Whatever multiplier greater than 1 or symbol used, it always goes to 100% as percent change. Any suggestions? Thank you |
