The 'Last Day Updated' is the latest date for which the data in the stock database has been updated. The 'Stock Split' parameters are used by the stock data and earnings data windows to accomodate stock split changes. The 'Max Tables' sets the maximum number of tables to be used. The table data area will be allocated at program startup. The 'Read Files at Start' indicates whether the Table and Stock Database files should be automatically input at program startup. The 'Modified Warning' indicates if the warning message about a data file modified should be displayed. The 'Use EGA/VGA Palette' allows for use of a 64 color palette for all screen colors with a 100% compatible EGA/VGA card. The 'Log File' is the file name to be used for printing of log data. This file name can be changed by hitting the PLUS (or F4) key to display a small window at bottom of screen for entering the new name. The 'Graphics Mode' is described in the graph section. The 'CGA Snow Removal' allows for elimination of snow on CGA screen. The 'Software Version' is the version level of this program. The 'Current Year Day 1' is the date of the Monday to be used for day 1 of the current year of stock data. The 'Prev Year Day 1' is the Monday for Day 1 in the previous year and the 'Next Year Day 1' is the Monday for Day 1 in the next year. These values should be automatically calculated by the program. DO NOT CHANGE THESE VALUES. The stock database holds 260 days (52 weeks) of data for each stock. Each day is numbered from Day 1 to Day 260 as shown below.

In order to maintain 'Day 1' being the first or second Monday in January it will be necessary to make an adjustment on 01/09/95. The adjustment will change the 'Day 1' value for 1995 from 01/02/95 to 01/09/95. This adjustment is performed by setting the 'First Day Adjust' parameter to 5 and then using the Output Files window to write the Parameter File and Stock File to disk.

The 'NAME' specifies the company name and can be changed by hitting the PLUS (or F4) or MINUS (or F8) keys. The 'CLASS' is used only when updating the stock database using data from GEnie quotes. The default class is "A". Use "B" for Class B stock or "P" for preferred stock. Use "I" for extra symbols used in Stock-Watch. To switch between DISPLAY mode and UPDATE mode hit the F9 key. To write earnings data to the disk log file hit the F5/F6 keys. The 'YEAR END' is the month that the company's fiscal earnings year ends in. This window allows for four years of quarterly earnings data. The 'FIRST YEAR' is the year end for the first of the four years. These parameters and the earnings data values can be changed by hitting the PLUS (or F1,F2,F3,F4) keys to increase values or MINUS (or F5,F6,F7,F8) keys to decrease values. The first 'YEAR' column computes a twelve month trailing earnings total. The second 'QTR' column calculates the percentage change in earnings from the same quarter in the previous year. The second 'YEAR' column calculates the percentage change in twelve month trailing earnings from the previous quarter (multiplied by four to annualize the percentage).

The 'Value Type' can be 'Minimum Value', 'Maximum Value', or 'Average Value'. The 'Range Start' and 'Range End' can select a value in the range from 'X - 259 Days' to 'X + 259 Days'. The range start must be previous to the range end. These three table column parameters allow for calculation of a function value over a relative time interval. The 'Moving Avg' is the time interval for moving average calculation. The 'Mov Avg Type' can be 'Simple', 'Weighted', or 'Exponential'. The 'Graph Type' is the window selected for graphing this table column. The possible values are 'None', 'Full Screen', 'Top 1/3 of Screen', 'Middle 1/3', 'Bottom 1/3', 'Top 2/3', 'Bottom 2/3', 'Top 1/2', 'Bottom 1/2', 'Middle 1/2', 'Top 1/4', '2nd 1/4', '3rd 1/4', 'Bottom 1/4', 'Top 3/4', or 'Bottom 3/4'. The 'Graph Color' is the color used for graphing this table column. The 'Stock Number' can be 'Current' to use the stock symbol listed after 'SYMBOL' or a stock number from 0 to N (number of stocks in the stock database) can be selected. This allows for graphing of multiple stock symbols on the same screen for comparison. (Continued on next page) ╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ ║ SECTION 02.10.04 : TABLE COLUMN UPDATE (Continued) ║ ╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ A column math type function will have the following parameters: The 'Operation' can be 'Col A + Col B', 'Col A - Col B', 'Col A * Col B', 'Col A / Col B', 'Col A + Constant', 'Col A - Constant', 'Col A * Constant', or 'Col A / Constant'. The 'Operand A' selects a column number 'Column xx'. The 'Operand B' selects a column number 'Column xx' or a constant value in the range -9999.99 to +9999.99. Use 'Col 0 + Constant' to graph constant horizontal lines. A standard deviation type function will have the following parameters: The 'Operand A' selects a column number 'Column xx' to be used in calculating the standard deviation. Several function types will have a 'Time Period' and 'Time Period 2' column value. The 'Time Period' is the first time period in days used in the calculation. The 'Time Period 2' is the second time period in days used in the calculation. A comparison type function will have the following parameters: The 'Value 2 Type', 'Range Start', and 'Range End' parameters are specified in addition to the 'Value Type', 'Range Start', and 'Range End' listed above. The range for the first and second values for comparison functions is 'C_Day - 259' to 'C_Day + 000' and 'Day 001' to 'Day 260', or 'C_Day-259' to 'C_Day + 260'. An EPS Comparison function may range from 'C_Day - 259' to 'C_Day + 260'. This allows for specification of relative or absolute time frames. The calculation of the comparison function is performed as follows: 100.00 * (Value2 - Value) / Value This measures the percentage change from one time interval to another. If the Value Type, Range Start, and Range End for Value and Value 2 are the same, then the result will be set to the value for that time interval. A graph will not be allowed for comparison type functions. A column change type function will have the following parameters: The 'Operand' parameter selects a column number. The 'Value Select' can be 'Value Positive', 'Value Negative', 'Value Not Zero', 'Value Positive or Negative', 'Positive Only', or 'Negative Only'. The 'Abs. Value' parameter can be yes or no. The column change functions are useful for designing your own analysis formulas. A column summation type function will have the following parameters: The 'Operand' and 'Value Select' parameters are the same as for the column change functions. The 'Time Range' specifies a time period for summming the column values. Note that the Directional Movement functions can not be used in table columns 8, 9, or 10. The Truncated Stock Volume function is the stock volume with values larger than four times the average volume truncated to a value of four times the average volume. ╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ ║ SECTION 02.10.05 : TABLE COLUMN UPDATE (Continued) ║ ╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ A help window defining the keyboard options used for each window can be displayed by hitting the ALT and F1 keys. ╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ ║ F1 : GRAPH TABLE ALT_F1 : HELP SCREEN ║ ║ F2 : DISPLAY TABLE ALT_F2 : CHANGE WINDOW COLORS ║ ║ F3 : DISPLAY COMPARISON TABLE ALT_F3 : EXIT ║ ║ F4 : NEXT SYMBOL ALT_F4 : CHANGE GRAPH RANGE ║ ║ F5 : N/A ALT_F5 : DECREASE LAST DAY GRAPHED║ ║ F6 : NEXT TABLE ALT_F6 : INCREASE LAST DAY GRAPHED║ ║ F7 : N/A ALT_F7 : DECREASE SORT COLUMN ║ ║ F8 : PREVIOUS SYMBOL ALT_F8 : INCREASE SORT COLUMN ║ ║ F9 : N/A ALT_F9 : CHANGE GRAPH SCALE ║ ║ F10 : N/A ALT_F10 : SORT FILTER ON ║ ║ ESCAPE: EXIT UP_ARROW : PREVIOUS LINE ║ ║ ENTER : UPDATE TABLE COLUMNS DOWN_ARROW : NEXT LINE ║ ║ SPACE : NEXT LINE LEFT_ARROW : PREVIOUS COLUMN ║ ║ PLUS : INCREASE VALUE RIGHT_ARROW: NEXT COLUMN ║ ║ MINUS : DECREASE VALUE PAGE_UP : N/A ║ ║ TAB : NEXT TABLE PAGE_DOWN : N/A ║ ╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ ╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ ║ SECTION 02.11.01 : TABLE DISPLAY ║ ╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ A table display function is selected by hitting the F2 key from the table selection, table column update, or graph window.

The primary use for this option is to create a script file to download daily stock quotes to be used for updating the Stock Database File. The script output file created consists of a copy of the script input file 1 (containing script commands for signon), multiple copies of script file 2 (containing script commands to retrieve a stock quote), and ends with a copy of script input file 3 (containing script commands for signoff). This will allow creation of script files for many communication packages. Examples are supplied on the distribution diskette. The script generation window values can be changed by using the cursor UP and DOWN keys to select a value. Script file names and password can be changed by hitting the PLUS (or F4) key which will cause a small window to appear at bottom of the screen for entering the new file name.

The update is performed by scanning a disk log file from Dow Jones News Retrieval, Genie, Compuserve, or Prodigy. The disk log file can contain information for one day of stock data, multiple days of data, or one year of data. The disk log file name can be changed by using cursor up or down arrow keys to position to File Name and then hitting the PLUS (or F4) key. A small window will appear at bottom of screen where the file name can be changed. An OPEN FAILED message indicates that the file name, directory, or drive is not correct. When all parameters have been selected, the update process is initiated by hitting the ENTER key. The results of the update operation are displayed on a window which can be scrolled up or down with the PAGE_UP and PAGE_DOWN keys or the UP and DOWN cursor keys. The stock data updates will be performed on data areas in computer memory. The stock file can then be saved to disk using the OUTPUT FILES window option. If the disk log file contains data for a stock not in the stock database, then it will be added to the stock database only if the update time frame was set to one year. To update stock data for a holiday use an update time frame of one day and hit the ALT and F4 keys. This will reset the price and volume to zero. Days with stock price of zero are not processed in calculation of technical analysis functions. The following are the default parameters used to scan the log files for the specified file types. It is not necessary to specify column positions for these file types. If you are using a different file type, then you must specify the column parameters.
