Comparing Multi-Symbol Price Changes Between Selected Dates
Summary
This indicator compares price changes across symbols listed in Market Watch between two dates marked by vertical lines on a chart. By displaying the changes over the same interval, it offers a way to scan which instruments moved and to assess market conditions across several symbols at once.
The dates are adjusted with the mouse, while keyboard controls are used to switch among symbols. The page says the indicator restarts when launched and starts again when the chart symbol changes. It does not describe the change calculation, normalization, display units, or a trading strategy based on the readings, and provides no tests or performance evidence. The tool is therefore a market-monitoring aid; comparisons may require care if symbols have different prices, volatility, or quote conventions.
Key ideas
- The indicator compares multiple Market Watch symbols over a date interval marked on the chart.
- Users set the interval with draggable vertical lines.
- Keyboard controls allow navigation among symbols.
- The display can help scan broad market moves, but the document does not specify normalization or trading rules.
