This ProBuilder code snippet demonstrates how to create a custom screener that tests a specific condition on a single stock and returns results based on that condition. The screener is designed to work with a personal list of instruments, allowing for flexible and targeted screening.

EQUITYFRAME("Indices - GBL EUR","Wall Street Cash(1€)")
c = close>100 //mettre le test voulu dans cette variable
equityframe(default)
test = c
Screener [test](c)

Explanation of the Code:

  • EQUITYFRAME(“Indices – GBL EUR”,”Wall Street Cash(1€)”): This line sets the equity frame to a specific market and instrument. In this case, it’s set to “Wall Street Cash(1€)” under the “Indices – GBL EUR” market. This is crucial for defining the context in which the screener will operate.
  • c = close>100: This line defines the condition ‘c’ that will be tested against the closing price of the stock. Here, the condition checks if the closing price is greater than 100.
  • equityframe(default): This command resets the equity frame to the default setting after it has been temporarily changed for the specific instrument.
  • test = c: This line assigns the condition ‘c’ to the variable ‘test’. This variable ‘test’ will be used in the screener to filter stocks.
  • Screener [test](c): This is the actual screener command that applies the condition stored in ‘test’ to the stocks in the equity frame. If the condition ‘c’ is true, the stock will be included in the screener results.

This snippet is a practical example of how to use the ProBuilder language to create a focused screener for specific trading conditions on selected instruments. It illustrates the flexibility of ProBuilder in customizing screenings and managing equity frames.
