I was looking at this filter of TRO and tried to tweak it to show the total PCT amount of gap ups and downs...

I appreciate if someone could help me with this...no luck

Thank you mankoh,

I appreciate it, much better now.

But is it possible to have one column for the sum of gap ups in pct (positive only) and another for the sum of gap downs in pct (negative only)?

Thanks again!

P.S.

I feel bad for asking for too much, but if it's possible to present separately PCT of gap ups, PCT of gap downs and PCT of UNFILLED gap downs...that would be just amazing..

Just change "open - close 1 day ago" to close 1 day ago - open" and you'll get overnight gap downs.

For gapfill statistics check TRO's filter

Yes, I got that, this filter is based on the tro's gap filter.


My problem is that when I do this:

set{chgn100, sum( opcl1 ,1)}

I get BOTH PCT in there, whether it's a GAP UP or GAP DOWN.

As the result, for 100 days I get a number that represents this: (100_day_gap_UP_PCT - 100_day_gap_DOWN_PCT).

I am trying to make it in a way, so I have a SEPARATE SUM for all GAP UPS and a SEPARATE SUM for all GAP DOWNS; and hopefully only for UNFILLED GAP DOWNS.
_____________

I can't separate the PERCENTAGE of UP gaps from DOWN gaps in "CHGN100"....that's a big issue.

I adapted this from TRO's filter. Measures Gaps Up, Gaps Up Filled and Filled Percentage. Same with Gaps Down.
I also have a column for consecutive Gaps Up/Down. A -3 for example means 3 straight days of a Gap Down, a 5 is 5 straight days of Gap Up. Useful when looking for a mean reversion.

Don't know if you still need this....

Marco,
Is it possible for you to revise the filter you posted to show the net average of the gap ups and the average of the gap downs independently in either a net amount or percentage?
For example, Stock ABC gapped up 54 times out of the last 100 days and the average gap up was .20 cents or .5%.
Stock ABC gapped down 46 times out of the last 100 days and the average gap down was .10 cents or .25%
Thanks in advance

Bert

Here is TRO's filter revised with the requested info. TRO originally included most of this I just added a few things.

1.) The Avg. Gap,100 column is the Avg. Daily Gap over the last 100 days in Dollars and Cents.

2.) The todaysgap% column is exactly that... Today's gap as a % of the opening price

3.) The Largest and Smallest Gap,100 columns are self explanatory. ( Important for checking for bad ticks or outliers which mess up the average gap %)

Hope this helps... We all owe guys like TRO and Kevin a great deal for their unselfish work.


Marco

Marco,

Thanks for responding and for the additions to the filter. However, I may not have made myself clear on what I was looking for.
But, before getting to that I wanted to add to what you said about Kevin and The Rumpled One - I couldn't agree with you more. They have been great teachers and contributors to this site and I can't thank them enough for all they've given to me and the entire Stockfetcher community.

Regarding the filter and looking at today's results, we have two symbols both who have gapped up 70 times and gapped down 27 times. Which is the better play? What I would like to know is the Average of the GAP UPS and average of the GAP DOWNS.

HYPOTHETICAL example;

VHT - GAP UP AVERAGE 50 cents, GAP DOWN AVERAGE 25 cents.
NYLD - GAP UP AVERAGE 40 cents, GAP DOWN AVERAGE 30 cents.

Both of the above gapped up 70 times and gapped down 27 times. Which is the better play?

Looking at the detail, clearly VHT would be the better play.

I hope that this explains what I am looking for and thanks in advance for the help.
