1/23/2018 5:57:25 PM Hi all, Is there a way to check the performance of a scan after 3 days have happened? Granted, I won't know the results for 3 days, but, as I page back in the past, I could have a column like Performance(3), which would basically be the change in price at the close after 3 days. thanks! |

I realize that there won't be a value for 3 days, but, if I go back into the past, I can see what that value would be. Basically, it would be a simple way of doing some quick and dirty backtesting. |
