Hi,

 I  want to run my scans while market is open but would like to use previous days data. Is this possible.

Thanks,

John

No, EasyScan uses the most current data available.

Depends on your scan definition. Say you want to if todays high is above previous day's high

if your pcf used in the easy scan is h > h1 that is based on todays data

if your pcf used in the easy scan is h1 > h2 that is based on yesterday's data

You can use that to tweak your pcf conditions.

Busterram,

    Thank you for clarifying how to tweak pcfs to use data from 1 or whatever days ago in the scans.

Hz -> High Price of the specified bar

Where z is the number of Bars Ago.
