I am away from my computer most of the time and I need to monitor the market for possible trading opportunities. However, I don't want to dwell on a computer all day.
  What i need is to create a watchlist of less than 250 stocks base on certain criteria's by scanning the market. Changes to the list will be made on a quarterly basis. The watchlist will need to display seven (7) columns of quotes criteria and eight (8) columns of technical indicators beside the names of the companies and symbols with a total of seventeen.
  The watchlist will reflect the prices and movement of all stocks listed based on end-of-day (EOD) data each day. At the end of the day or thereafter, at 4:00pm when the market closes i will like to received an AUTOMATIC EMAIL alert of the entire watchlist to my email account. This will enable me to print it and peruse for possible candidates to chose for trading.

The watchlist scan criteria:
1) Exchanges: NYSE, Nasdaq and AMEX
2) Price under $3.00
3) Price-to-ratio of less than 1.0
4) Market capitalization between $25M and $250M
 
The watchlist columns data:

Quotes Criteria
1) 52 wk High
2) 52 wk Low
3) Close
4) High
5) Low
6) % Change
7) Volume

TECHNICAL INDICATORS
1) 5-days Volume Moving Average (VMA)
2) 5/10 days Volume Oscillator
3) 5/15 days Volume Oscillator
4) 5-days Moving Average (MA)
5) 20-days Moving Average (MA)
6) 50-days Moving Average (MA)
7) Slow Stochastic 14/3/3 %k
8) Slow Stochastic 14/3/3 %D
Does your software has the capability to accomplish what i need? Especially, with the automation of sending the entire watchlist and the end of the day? I am looking forward to hear from you and i appreciate your assistance in this matter.

While I am unclear about the following requirement:

3) Price-to-ratio of less than 1.0

And could not guarantee that the EasyScan would contain 250 symbols or less in any given day, setting up the EasyScan and having the desired WatchList Columns does not seem to be a problem.

I cannot think of a way to automatically email the results of your EasyScan to you at the end of each trading day however.
