[amibroker] R Squared, different methods with slightly different results [2 Attachments]

 
[Attachment(s) from portfoliobuilder99@gmail.com [amibroker] included below]

I have come across 2 different methods for calculating the R-Squared of price against time. And though the results are very close, I notice if looking as far as three decimal places in the calculated result at times there is a minor difference.


I am wondering if one method is perhaps "more" correct than the other.


/**R-Squared**/


Periods = 20; // set the periods


correlationcoefficientR = Correlation( Cum(1), Close, Periods ); //R the correlation coefficient

R2 = correlationcoefficientR ^ 2; // coefficient of determination denoted R2


// a different way to calculate in afl, using BarIndex() instead of Cum(1)

// BarIndex() returns zero-based bar number - the same as Cum(1)-1


anotherR2 =Correlation( BarIndex(), Close, periods ) ^ 2;  


Filter=1;

AddColumn(BarIndex(),"BarIndex");

AddColumn(Cum(1),"Cum");

AddColumn(R2, "R-Squared",1.3);

AddColumn(anotherR2, "anotherR2", 1.3);



Plot(r2, "R-Squared("+periods+")", colorBlue, styleLine);

Plot(anotherR2, "barIndex R2("+periods+")", colorYellow, styleThick);
