Hi,

I have following statement in my trading system to rank the stocks(I want to rank with stock having highest turnover i.e. close*wma(volume, 10):

SetSimLongRank(-close*wma(volume, 10));

Here should I use "-" for descending order?

In order to make sure that I have identical approach, in my screener if I use the following filter, will it be appropriate?

bos = comp(-close*wma(volume,10), "rank", 1, (buy or short)) ==1;

filter = bos;

Here I want to make sure that I have stocks with highest turnover.

Or whatever I have written above is true for identifying stocks with the lowest turnover?

Regards

Do not use "-" for descending order.

For the "comp" function in your screen, you will get only one stock with the highest turnover (== 1).

To identify stocks with the lowest turnover, use the "-" sign.
