Midday Losers

Hi all,

I'm new here, and I'm having trouble with something. I'm trying to screen for the biggest percent loser each day calculated from open to midday price. It seems like Pipeline doesn't have the ability to do this. Is that correct? Is this possible without manually referencing securities? If so, suggestions or advice to get me started on this?

Thanks!

Use pipeline to select the stocks and check the price change via history with timed function.

Hi Jerry,

This algo below will calculate the biggest loser of the day for the top 500 stocks by market cap. It is not making any trades, but you can see the biggest midday loser in the print logs every day. Happy to help more if you want to shoot me a private message.

Thanks
