Subject : RE: Computing float for a stock

Post #32282 - In reply to #32265

After talking with Barry, I learned Float was dropped in OmniData a while ago.

I found that BarChart.com has Float (from Zacks) as part of its database.
Using BarChart's Stock Screener I was able to create a screener and display template that gives me the information I need.
I can download the screener output in .csv format.

I created an indicator that parses and converts the Float data so I can use it in OT2023.

I am attaching a sample .csv and the indicator source code.

Why? Why not?

If I (or someone else) wants to import a per Symbol data value, this code might be a good place to start...

Cheers
