PerformanceComp.efs – EFS

PerformanceComp.efs

File Name: PerformanceComp.efs

Description:
Compare up to 3 symbols on a % performance basis as a non-price study.

Formula Parameters:
Symbol1: Any valid symbol
Symbol2: Any valid symbol

Notes:
Must apply a time template that is not in dynamic mode to establish a specific starting point. This formula will not display useful results if your time template is in dynamic mode. For intra-day chart intervals, it is recommended to set the start/end times in your time template to the market's open and close times.
