I can't find the scan lights in the new release. My conditional columns with scan lights carried forward for the older build are still present, but I can't implement new ones. Only the check mark seems to be availabe. Am I missing something? Thanks. Doug

Right-click on the WatchList Column Header and select Edit Columns.

Click to the right of where it says When True (even if it doesn't look like there is anything there).

Choose Show Scan Light.

Normally when you select Add Column and select a Condition, the WatchList Column which is added will be a checkmark.

If you right-click on the WatchList Column Header and select Edit Columns, you can change the When True setting to Do Nothing, Show Dot, Show Check or Show Scan Light. The first three options will modify the WatchList Column and are available for When False as well, but the last option will create a bubble below each symbol that will be filled with a color when the condition is true instead of making another horizontal column.

Hi Bruce,

Is it possible to create a column with some calcuations ?

For example, is it possible to create your own column showing (RSI-60) ?

Yes. You can just click on an Indicator and select Show Values in WatchList.

Or you could select Indicators and choose Write Indicator Formula to create an Indicator Formula. Assuming a plain unsmoothed 60-Period RSI (not RSI - Wilders), the formula would be:

And then select Add Column and choose your Indicator Formula from the My Indicators section of the list to use it as a WatchList Column.
