Hi Craig and Doug

How do I combine a ranking for Earnings per Share and Asset Turnover.

I can create a scan for EPS and pick top 25%, in the same scan I can add Asset Turnover and pick top 25%. How ever this does not sort the final list from combined highest rank to combined lowest rank.

How do I combine together and sort.

Example : Company 1 : EPS (rank = 10) + Asset Turnover (rank = 20) = 30 (total).

Company 2 : EPS (rank 1) + Asset Turnover (rank = 50) = 51

Therefore Company 1 is higher combined rank than company 2

I want the top 30 companies

Does this make sense ??

Thanks

Ian

It does. There is no real way to do this, though.

You can add both conditions to your WatchList tab and set them to display the rank. This will allow you to see their ranks where you can quickly figure their combined rank in your head. I would sort by one or the other than look for high values in one and the other.

If you are not familiar with adding columns to your WatchList tab, check out this short video:
