Stock Market Forecast

The Stock Market Forecast extension analyzes stocks using historical data, and presents a probable Forecast for the near future. You may select the number of Trading Days that will be used to determine the current Price Change, which is compared to Price Changes that occurred on every date in the past year. For example, if '5' is selected, the program will show how much each Stock's price has gone up or down in the past 5 Trading Days. A 'Range for Comparison' is used to find previous date ranges in the past year that had a similar Price Change. For example, if a stock went up 1% in the past 5 days, then more Comparisons could be found if the Range was .5%-1.5%, instead of .9%-1.1%. A higher number of Historical Comparisons will use a wider 'Range for Comparison'.
