Syntax


public static int FundamentalSequenceCheck(this WealthScript obj, string item)

public int FundamentalSequenceCheck(string item)

Parameter Description

item

Fundamental item to check

Description

A fundamental data checker created by Robert Sucher. Use the FundamentalSequenceCheck routine in any strategy that access fundamental data.

It checks FY/FQ sequence or missing reports, and checks date sequence. If -1 is returned, it's probably giving a green sign to use the fundamental data in a Strategy.

Example

Note: Wealth-Lab Developer users can try entering "[msn] assets" instead of "assets". Make sure you have updated MSN Fundamental data.

Example using C# extension methods:


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Drawing;
using WealthLab;
using Community.Components; /*** Requires installation of Community.Components Extension from www.wealth-lab.com > Extensions ***/

namespace WealthLab.Strategies
{
	public class FundamentalsCheckerDemo : WealthScript
	{
		protected override void Execute()
		{	
			ClearDebug();
			// Let's say I want to check the "assets" data before I use it in a script
			if(this.FundamentalSequenceCheck("assets") != -1)
			{
				// stop script processing now
				return;
			}
			
			PrintDebug( "assets probably okay to use in script...");			
		}
	}
}

Legacy syntax example:


using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Drawing;
using WealthLab;
using Community.Components; /*** Requires installation of Community.Components Extension from www.wealth-lab.com > Extensions ***/

namespace WealthLab.Strategies
{
	public class FundamentalsCheckerDemo : WealthScript
	{
		protected override void Execute()
		{	
			// Create an instance of the class that contains the routine,
			// passing a WealthScript object as "this"
			
			Utility u = new Utility( this );
			
			ClearDebug();
			// Let's say I want to check the "assets" data before I use it in a script
			if(u.FundamentalSequenceCheck("assets") != -1)
			{
				// stop script processing now
				return;
			}
			
			PrintDebug( "assets probably okay to use in script...");			
		}
	}
