Fetch exact ranking position of title in Screener

  Hi guys,

  i just wanted to ask if it is possible to fetch the exact ranking position of a share, after screening a market.

  Example: I start a individual screener on Dow Jones. 30 shares will be ordered descending by highest value.

  How can i retrieve in the screener code, on which position for example is Coca Cola?

  And how can i retrieve the exact number of screened shares? I can see it at the screeners bottom, but i need

  to access this number in my screener code.

   

  Thank you in advance

  I don’t think that’s possible, since it would mean build an array of previous fetched stocks (prorealtime language don’t have array capabilities). And since, the screener code is reloaded for each individual stocks, nothing can be stored for an individual one and tested for the next one and so on ..

  Thank you anyway for your fast feedback Nicolas. It would be a nice thing adding the array ability to Prorealtime language. This would open so many doors and lift up ProRealTime to the next level. Hope this will come in future.

  Thank you for your fast feedback Nicolas!

  It would be really nice, if in future the array capability will be added to the ProRealTime language. This would open so many new possiblities for reasearching and lift up the software to the next level.

  I strongly hope this will come in future with the next updates.

  I totally agree, there are so many things that can’t be done without data arrays!
