I'm using the following .pcf in a scan I do for 20 year highs.

C>=MAXC5100

In the easyscan I get 2 hits -- TRP and KTF --  today (Aug3), but there are higher highs for both stocks on Aug1.  When I test the .pcf, it works properly, i.e. both stocks return false for today.  The only other criteria in the scan is volume.

What stupid thing am I missing here?   Thanks!

TRP and KTF are not returning true as a WatchList Column or as an EasyScan Condition for me (I'm updated through 08/03/2012 Market Close).

If you are updated through the same date and have updated your Personal Criteria Formulas as well as your data (including criteria which require more than 250 days of history), then I do not know why you would not be getting the same results and you should probably contact technical support.

All e-mail communication sent to support@worden.com during business hours (Monday through Friday 9AM-11PM and Saturday and Sunday 9AM-3PM ET) should be answered within 20 minutes of arrival.

For an even quicker response to tech support questions, we recommend calling our voice line at (919) 408-0542 (there is no phone support on Sundays, some Market Holidays or after 9PM ET on weekdays).

You can also contact us using Live Chat Support during business hours.

Thanks Bruce.  Yeah, as soon as I noticed this, I did an immediate update for 250 days and it was still wrong.

I'm going to just put this off as a head scratcher, but keep an eye out if it happens again.  If it does, I'll report it.  Too bad I didn't notice it Friday night instead of just before this morning's open.  It's become a moot point now I guess.  Thanks.
