Hi,

I was thinking of suggesting to Stockfetcher if it could be added the option to be able to see in a column the current value of an indicator, regardless of whether an offset is made to a filter.

But maybe someone can think of a practical way to do it.

Obviously it can be achieved by creating lists of symbols and then running them with a 2nd filter that includes that indicator. But that implies after a few days having to manage 30 or 40 lists.

Thanks to all.

Please give a real world example of what you are looking for, as I'm not sure why, SF's existing method of days ago, can't easily give you what you want, albeit in a reverse manner.

Thanks,
Ed S.

Yes, of course.

Suppose I have a filter that gives me oversold symbols. And I check the results, from several days ago.

What I would like is, in that same filter, to be able to see the value of a certain indicator on today. For example, 2 days slope of ema(13). Thus, I can sort them based on this column, of the current value, and know, which of the filters that were oversold a certain number of days ago already show some rally.

I hope I have explained it.

Thanks

The filter below, I believe, gives you the sort capability you described in your example explanation without using the date offset function to find oversold stocks from 5 days ago.

Fetcher[
add column 2 day slope of ema(13)
draw 2 day slope of ema(13)


/* oversold filter from TRO */

RSI(2) 5 days ago < 1
and weekly RSI(2) 5 days ago < 1

add column rsi(2) 5 days ago
add column weekly rsi(2) 5 days ago

draw rsi(2)
/*draw weekly RSI(2) on plot rsi(2)*/
]

Thank you very much, I'm just doing the same thing, adding "days ago" to each phrase that contains a condition in the filter.

Before, I only used it for one or two indicators, now I'm going to include it for all of them.

Anyway, it doesn't work perfectly because some of the indicators I use have the weekly format, and I can't delay them like the ones that are in days.

If I have an indicator with 10 days ago, another indicator that is in weekly format, can't delay it the same way.

It appears that SF uses number of weeks when it encounters a "# of days ago" phrase applied to a weekly indicator..

Perhaps if you divide your days ago number by 5 and use that number for all of the days ago phrases that apply to your weekly indicators....downside is you would have to keep straight 2 different days ago numbers.

I'm going to try it.

Thanks for the suggestions
