Reply To: Breadth Engine: Percent of stocks below a date

[Matthew]

BARDATE() returns an index value. So March 8 for example returns a value of 44,628.  Rather than having to know and find that index value, STRDATE() converts that into a standard format of yyyy-mm-dd.

So V1 you select the date you are after.
V2 sets a BARINDEX value for all bars.
V3 says, when the BARINDEX value matches the selected date (March 8) show us the Closing value for that bar.
