EC Neophyte Concerns
Posted: Thu Jan 31, 2013 11:04 am
I am an EdgeClub neophyte. Kicking tires. Around 2:05 in the introductory video it says, "You can create and build your own Symbol List." I can only guess this means typing them one at a time or importing from a partnering software. I had a watch list already built inside Excel and did not want to retype it. I got it into EC (without seeing instructions on importing symbols into a list) by saving the Excel data as CSV then renaming the extension to TXT. I placed it inside the Symbol List directory on my computer. If there is a better way to accomplish an import, please advise.
Then I populated prices from Yahoo, and ran the Alpha21 template against the list. It was fast and the output looks to be useful, but the resulting ranking table dates are in reverse order from various video training. My result was oldest date next to symbol. How can I rearrange the output so that the table reads newest to oldest (have newest date as the first subsequent column next to the symbol)?
