Dear All,
You can now use the #Previous parameter in FRank() and FORder() within Custom Universes. You can now create a universe like this:
MktCap>500
FOrder(“Pr2SalesTTM”,#Previous,#ASC)<=100
The above will create a universe of the 100 lowest Price2Sales stocks with a market cap greater than 500M.
NOTE: the FOrder() parameters have changed and are now consistent with the other functions. See this post about what happened to your systems that use the old parameters for FOrder().
Dear Marco,
After I broke down and sobbed for 30 minutes, wiped my face clean, and dragged myself back to my desk, I felt I had to write to you.
I can now create nested sorts with FRANK + #Previous and actually use them via a custom universe.
Christmas came a few weeks late this year, but I will accept this present with sincere thanks.
Keep up the great work!

P.S. your fans in Europe wonder when you’ll be over here for photo ops and autographs…
Hi Marco,
Maybe this is a coincidence, but a custom universe I use in one of my screens appears broken - or the screener is broken.
When I run screener https://www.portfolio123.com/app/screen/summary/124626?st=1&mt=1 , I get an error report: ERROR: No stocks were ranked. Empty universe found.
However, if I run the universe, I find almost 2000 stocks.
What do you think?
Best,
Walter
There is definitely an issue, and it will be resolved as soon as possible.
Edit: The issue has been resolved.
Thank you!
I used Forder all the time, and all my Forder were transformed into FOrderOLD… Still I am very happy of this change. Great work, and great platform.
Is supporting #Previous in FRank() in Simulations on the development agenda?
