Something seems to be wrong in this calculation. Any help is appreciated...
Here's the formula i'm currently using in Tradingview:
giLong = open < lowest(low[1],20) and (open < close[1] and close > open) and (close >= open or ((100 * (close - low) / (high - low)) > 50)) ? true : false
public override void Execute(BarHistory bars, int idx)
{
if (bars.Count <= 20)
return;
int index = idx;
Position longPosition = FindOpenPosition(0);
var ll = new Lowest(bars.Low, 20)[index];
bool gil = bars.Open[index] < ll && (bars.Open[index] < bars.Close[index - 1] && bars.Close[index] > bars.Open[index]) && (bars.Close[index] >= bars.Open[index] || ((100 * (bars.Close[index] - bars.Low[index]) / (bars.High[index] - bars.Low[index])) > 50)) ? true : false;

An alert quote manager is required to operate this script properly because you cannot send every order at once, just create the alert as in previous versions of older PERL script WL and that should make it possible to use in Quantacula.
The idea behind this model is an investment for the retirement capital and to ensure to be out of the market during bear markets. In addition, the system is suitable for persons who have never dealt with the stock exchanges before. It can also be used as a Market Timing model on a higher time scale. Profits can be leveraged by using the ProShares Ultra SSO ETF (doubles returns of the S&P 500 for a single day using stocks/derivatives), but a slightly larger draw down must be considered. Back tests since 1978 on the S&P 500 Index have shown very impressive results with a similarly low draw down.
The StockPup Extension downloads historical fundamental data for US stocks from stockpup.com. After you install the Extension, enable StockPup fundamentals by selecting it in the list of Fundamental Providers in the Data Sources interface.

Some tips for using fundamental data in Quantacula Studio:
- Go to Chart Preferences, Fundamentals to select which fundamental data icons to automatically plot on a chart.
- Use the Fundamental indicator to access any fundamental data item in a Building Block Model, or to drag and drop on a chart.
- Use the FundamentalRatio indicator to easily create your own ratios such as Annual Dividend Yield, or Assets/Liabilities.
- In C# Coded Models, access the fundamental data using the Fundamentals property of the BarHistory class.
Dion, would be nice to have a way to choose which items can be plotted on the chart to avoid this.

I wonder whether there was ever a request to integrate a Social Media Sentiment Feature into QS using Twitter or StockTwits? A feature of StockTwits is the option to label a tweet as bullish/bearish. The idea is based on the following blog post: http://epchan.blogspot.com/2017/09/stocktwits-sentiment-analysis_7.html?m=1
Thanks
Tucked away in the Quantacula indicators list is a recent gem, an indicator called FundamentalRatio. This indicator creates a ratio by dividing any two fundamental items and/or price components and applying optional summing and multiplication. In order to see any useful results with FundamentalRatio, you'll first need to enable some fundamental data in Quantacula Studio.
