Best way, I can think of off hand is to do a moving average of trade volume
of the last week or so.  If it is greater than 0 then it has traded be it
today or 5 days ago or both.

Subject: [EquisMetaStock Group] How to check they are currently trading?

I have lots of equities in my database that are quite old and are no longer
trading, or are halted etc.  I don't want to just delete them (because I
can't be bothered) but they are also still useful for backtesting historical
data - but I don't want them to come up when I'm doing explorations.  Apart
from going through and keeping track of current traded shares etc and
removing them from the explorations securities list, what formula can I use
to add to the exploration to make sure that it was traded at least in the
last week - using todays date (or the date I have selected for the
exploration).

I'm sure it must be relatively easy, but I can't seem to find it in the
help.

Thanks
