Is there a way to determine the lowest and highest values on an indicator over the last x peroid of days.
For instance: What is the lowest and highest values of Historical Volatility(100,1) over the last 100 days?

Perhaps...
Not sure if it's time of day, but it seems to chug along a bit before it spits out results.

I seem to be having a syntax problem with the following:
set{hv, historical volatility(100,1)}
add column hv
set{hvhigh, high hv 100 day high}
add column hvhigh
set{hvlow, low hv 100 day low}
add column hvlow
set(ivrange, hvhigh - hvlow) <---------------- This statement gets an error.
add column ivrange
set(ivp, ((hvhigh - hv) / ivrange))
add column ivp
Any ideas about what is causing the error?
Thx in advance.

Never mind. Needed to use brackets instead in parens. Duh.

Your set(ivp, ((hvhigh - hv) / ivrange)) statement should be triggering an error as well if you haven't already caught it.
set{ivp, ((hvhigh - hv) / ivrange)}
It won't like the multiple math either.
set{ivp1, hvhigh - hv)}
set{ivp, ivp1 / ivrange)}

set{hv, historical volatility(100,1)}
add column hv
set{hvhigh, high hv 100 day high}
add column hvhigh
set{hvlow, low hv 100 day low}
add column hvlow
set(ivrange, hvhigh - hvlow) <---------------- This statement gets an error. You did use brackets
add column ivrange
,set(ivp, ((hvhigh - hv) / ivrange)) again, you did not use brackets, and you are trying to do 2 math steps instead of 1
add column ivp
Any ideas about what is causing the error?
Thx in advance.
In the line I highlighted you are trying to do two arithmetic operations in one set statement. Set statements can only do one math step at a time - a limitation that SF freely acknowledges but seems uninterested in fixing. Also you did not close the set statement with a bracket. Also did not do this for the line you indicate is giving you the error.

I did catch the multiple math and brackets issues. I appreciate the help and feedback.
