Data differences between screener and indicator

  Hi,

  I have a simple indicator added to my daily chart.  Its a stochastic(3,1,1).

  Yesterday’s value for the indicator shows 18.67.

  When i code up the same indicator in a screener, the screener returns a value of 32.8.

  Is there a difference in close of day maybe between screener and indicator?

  Screener version of stochastic indicator

  cMyStoch1 = Stochastic[3,1](close)[cShift] cMyStoch = average[1](cMyStoch1)

  1 2	cMyStoch1 = Stochastic[3,1](close)[cShift] cMyStoch  = average[1](cMyStoch1)

  Yes, cShift is set to 1.

  Happy to attach screenshots if needed.

  Many thanks if you can help shed any light on this!

  Could it be that your data isn’t adjusted for dividends?

  I don’t see any problems with the code or the screener/indicator results.

  Hi Ivan,

  Many thanks for the reply.  Could i ask you to check the FTSE100 (its UKX on my platform, IG Index) please for Tuesday?

  I have attached a screenshot for this which, for me at least, shows a difference between the indicator(18.67) and the screener result (5th instument down in the screener list = 32.8).

  I get the discrepency on other instruments as well, just to show a few (all daily timeframe, tuesday candle: 16th Dec):

  AUDNZD: indicator 45.64, screener 54.4

  EURUSD: indicator 29.56, screener 28.5

   

  But others are very close/the same:

  Spot Gold: indicator 46.51, screener 46.7

  Wall Street: indicator 17.28, screener 17.3

   

  I’ll try the core/proper PRT (rather than the IG version) and see what i get.

  Thanks.

  I don’t know…

  Maybe you could open a new ticket support after launch the screener so PRT could help you.
