Re: [amibroker] attn: optoins players ----- new feature suggestedto AB

[Terry <MagicTH@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gary,

Thanks for the suggestion, but I cannot make it work. Seems to me this would require recursion which is not allowed with AB functions or it requires a loop for which I cannot find non-array functions such as Day, Date, DayOfWeek.

Signed Stumped.

Terry,
 
If the trade day is null (ie. doesn't exist, just test for null and assign the alternate expiration date.
 
Regards,
Gary

I searched PureBytes archives for a formula to detect options expiration dates...none found. I have the following, but it does not find expiration weeks that do not have a trade on Friday as in April, 2003 (for ^OEX). Any suggestions?

expiry = IIf(DayOfWeek()==5 AND Day() > 14  AND Day() < 22,True,False);
