Hi folks,
I'm just learning SF's coding and was wondering if anyone could look at my code below and give me some guidance on what I'm doing wrong.
I was just trying to make a variable that would give me the ratio of the match's volume / ADV(10) and use that variable to:
show stocks with 3x ADV(10)
and that had hit a new 52 week high

But when I Backtest my filter - there are no matches - which I know is not the case in reality.

Thanks in advance for any guidance
Ed
My code is below......

set{VaRatio, Volume / ADV(10)}
Show stocks where VaRatio is above 3.00
and high reached a new 1 year high
and Average Volume(10) is above 500000
and Volume is above 1000000
and close is greater than 6.00
and market is not otcbb
add column Va Ratio
add column average volume(10)
add column average volume(20)
add column average volume(50)
add column rsi(10)

ADV(10) ... I don't believe SF recognizes this.

thanks lockwiz, you were right.
Sometimes if you look at something too long - the visible becomes invisible.
Works perfectly now
thanks again:)

set{volpc, volinc / v}
set{volpct, volpc * 100}

set{VolZ, days(volume < 1,100)}
set{VolUp, days(volume is below volume 1 day ago,100)}
set{VolDn, days(volume is above volume 1 day ago,100)}
set{VolCnt, VolUp - VolDn}

set{vck1, volume 1 day ago }
set{vck, volume / vck1 }
set{vdbl, days(vck < 2, 100)}

Show stocks where VaRatio is above 3.00
and high reached a new 1 year high

I added a few volume displays.
