THis has probalby been addressed but could not narrow down search.

If I have an easy scan and want to scan different watchlists with it.   Do I have to edit the scan each time to change the database scanned, or is there a a simpler way?

Thanks

You can edit the List to Scan in the WatchList or you can click on the Change List/Scan Properties icon (three horizontal bars) to Open a Copy of this EasyScan and then save the new EasyScan with a different name.

I'm not sure there is a big advantage either way as click on the Edit tab and changing the List to Scan is probably not going to take that much longer to switch than to tab multiply EasyScans together and then select the desired tab.

I'm not quite sure what you are missing, but a Condition Formula for a 25-Period Simple Moving Averages crossing up through a 100-Period Simple Moving Average could be written as:

AVGC25 > AVGC100 AND AVGC25.1 <= AVGC100.1

And a Condition Formula for a 10-Period Simple Moving Average crossing down through a 30-Period Simple Moving Average can be written as:

AVGC10 < AVGC30 AND AVGC10.1 >= AVGC30.1

That said, it is generally better to just add the indicators to the chart and then click on them to Create Scan Condition than to create a Condition Formula. The resulting Condition is not only easier to create, but more efficient in that it wall calculate more quickly using less resources.
