My scans are returning a large percentage of funds (such as GGT.B, BPP, MHF, GYA, MFM) . Is there a way to refine the scan to search for stocks, Is the US stocks watchlist. my only option to use the spx, iwm, ndx & etf watchlists? Also, how can I change the 3 white soldiers & 3 black crows pfc's to scan for 5 up/down days?

You may wish to review the following topic for information on how to create a WatchList based on the US Common Stocks WatchList which eliminates Closed End Funds.

A Condition Formula for Price increasing 5-Bars in a row could be written as:

C > C1 AND C1 > C2 AND C2 > C3 AND C3 > C4 AND C4 > C5

Any word on when modules will be available for things like candle and pattern scanning? I used to do programing, but frankily, I have neither the time nor inclination to re-learn boolean programming to set up the scans that I want to run, such as 3 down candles followed by a hammer & vol spike.Otherwise, I love the workspace flexibility of v12, but once again I dont want to spend hours figuring out how to program a scan.

I do not know when or if modules might be available to scan for price patterns (be they candlestick or not). The Boolean PCFs for Candlestick Patterns topic has numerous formulas for candlestick patterns.
