Recalculate Long Term Lines

To get to this screen, click the button in the toolbar that looks like this.

The button has three yellow lines on it, and is labeled "Re Calculate Long Term Lines"

This button is a toggle button that will change the view of the alert lines based upon the time frame. It is infrequently used. Using the Recalculate Button When the program calculates a stocks growth rate with its corresponding alert lines, the information is based upon a specific data time frame.

If you change the time frame, you will get a different perspective. For example, if you use the all data time frame on BBBY, the long term grow rate of 33% of price and earnings is apparent. You can see good buying and selling opportunities. If you now change the time frame to 2 years, you see that recently the earnings have held up well, but the price growth rate has slowed to about 14%. This is a slight divergence and the price maybe getting ready to take off again to match the earnings growth rates. If you would like to see the long-term lines on a shorter time frame such as 2 years, you click the recalculate button and the lines are displayed based upon the all data time frame. You can click the button a second time and it reverts back to the 2-year time frame.

This button is mainly used to see the longer growth patterns displayed on a shorter duration chart.
