I have an Easy Scan that finds finds the top performing MG insustry groups based on 26-week and 1-month price percent change. So I have a watchlist of MG groups and now I would like to create a watchlist that contains all of the stocks in those industry groups. How can I do this without doing it manually for each group ("Change watchlist to Sub-Industry components" for each group and copy to a watch list). Please tell me there is an easier way.

Thanks,

Mike

I wish I could, puckster, but it must be done manually. You can use flgging, though, so by manually, I certainly don't mean you must type each individual ticker. Start by unflagging everything. Then go to each top performing MG watchlist, and flag all symbols in each one. Then change your active watchlist to All Flagged Items. Then create a new watchlist, and click the button that says to start with all flagged stocks from the current watchlist. Some legwork, yes....but much better than a pure manual entering of all those tickers.

Thanks Doug. What you described is exactly what I am currently doing, so I guess I am as well off as I can expect.

Can't have it all, I guess.
