Scanning Module
Posted: Mar 16 2007
I want to start with the things who I think are important for a scanning module.
-Scanning different Markets (Nasdaq, NYSE, ...) and the possibility to choose from which datasource the scan should start.
- The possibility to store the found data on hd for using it with further scanning or for the later Radar Screen
- Switching from the found EOD-data to Realtime data (for tading), I don't know if it possible to impliment, but it would a good feature. I try to explain a little more detailed. Let's think first I want to choose all daily Nasdaq stocks who are over the 200 MA and want to use the found data for an intraday strategy. Choosing IB as dataprovider fails, because you can download max 1 Year historical data. At the moment I'm scanning Metastock EOD data, print them out and enter the found stocks manually in the charting software.
So, that's my suggestions who are important for me. Perhaps you can some of them realize.
Thanks
