Is it possible to add a column that counts how many times stock achieves 2.0% below open?
I appreciate any help in this matter.

Cheese, Thank you very much for your fast reply and helpful code. That is exactly what I wanted.
I do have one other problem. I want to add another column labeled "diff" that subtracts the 2.0%belowopen column from the up2% column.
I added below code but it does not work.
set{diff, up2% - 2.0%belowopen}
add column diff
Any ideas?

The variable up2% is not a defined variable. Use up2.0 instead.
set{diff, up2.0 - 2.0%belowopen}
add column diff

Xarlor & Cheese, Thank you both for your help in fixing my code. I thought that it was a small error that I was overlooking. Thanks again, Ron

Question to peeps who have experience trading the CROCK POT.
************************************************************************
TRO recommended 1% weekly when he came up with the CROCK POT idea.
olathegolf and ron22 wrote CROCK POT posts for 2% weekly
Kevin had CROCK POT posts and threads for 5% weekly
JoeyVinyl had CROCK POTposts and threads for 10% weekly.
So, is this the thinking behind the CROCK POT?
First, we scan and filter for the highest stats with 5% to 10% weekly gains,
and then aim to get 1% to 2% weekly gain?
That would make it safer than to scan and filter for the highest stats with 1% to 2% weekly gains,
and aim for 1% weekly gains?
Thank you in advance for sharing your experience.

I suggest you looks for posts by a fellow named Oldsmar52. He claims to have traded the Crock Pot for several years while he was working and claims he made enough money to pay for a retirement home in Florida.
His posts inspired me to trade the Crock Pot using 1%, 2% and 5% profit targets. Oldsmar developed some rules to enhance the system. I recall he used market orders at the open and would not enter a position near when earnings were reported. He claims he never had a big loss and eventually every trade was profitable.
I got organized about 18 months ago and traded it for a couple of months. Most of the time the trades hit the profit targets but once in a while the target was not hit and holding the position, as Oldsmar claimed he did, resulted in big losses. The losses offset the 1%, 2% and 5% profits to the point I gave up on trading the Crock Pot. If I was to start trading the Crock Pot again, I would not hold a position very long and definitely don't hold longer than a week. I hope this helps.
Mike
