In Version 17, when I click on an Easy Scan and then click the Gold Funnel (Filter), it shows me a popup that has "List to scan" in the upper left corner.  When I put in the list it allows me to save the scan with the list so that the next time I can just click the Easy Scan set without having to select what symbols I want to scan.  Does Version 18 have this?

You can set what is essentially a list ot scan as part of a Combo List (this is probably the closest thing to previous versions of EasyScans in TC2000 v18). You can bring up a Combo List pretty much the same way as you can currently bring up an EasyScan (without selecting a WatchList each time).

The way scanning works in TC2000 v18 is that you just select the Scan option for a WatchList and then choose the desired scan. Those scans don't have a "List to Scan" because they can be applied to any WatchList (including a Combo List which might contain multiple WatchLists and already have pre-conditions which must be met as well).

More information on what has changed in TC2000 v18 can be found on the following webpages.

Today my computer just stopped offering the option to open version 17 and opened 18 and I discovered the same scan issue rcbenjamin1220 was talking about. That is an unfortunate change in my opinion. More steps to go through. Every evening I ran 4 scans and now it takes longer to do it. Frustrating to see things get more tedious.

Easyscans are no longer easy. I read the instructions on setting up ComboList with scan conditions. But how do you run your Easyscan without having to drill down through the menus? Used to be real easy, not any more! What genius at Worden designed this? This is very disappointing and a big step backwards.

You can completely ignore the Scan checkbox and the new EasyScan system if you want and have all of the same functionality you had before by setting up Combo Lists instead of EasyScans (including the same number of mouse clicks).

A Combo List with Pre-Scan Conditions in it works exactly the same as the old EasyScan with EasyScan Conditions in it with the exception of being able to have multiple Source Lists instead of a single List to Scan.

Go to the WatchLists tab and select the Combo List (where you previously would have selected EasyScan) or click on the name of the current WatchList and choosing Combo List (where you previously would have selected EasyScan) and then the desired Combo List (where you would have previously selected an EasyScan).

You can add Combo Lists to the chart just like you would have added EasyScans previously.

I have the same question. I click on the EasyScan orange arrow icon to get to my saved scan. I then click on the orange arrow icon in the new window that pooped up to run the scan. But thescan has defaulted to the S&P500 List. I change the list to my list and it runs okay. But then it would save thescan with my list and the next time I run the scan, it has defaulted back to the S&P500 list. This should not be like this. Is there a fix? Also, how can I save my Easyscans to run on the Iphone Tc2000 app?
