Is there any location for the canned sort criteria formulas?
For example if I want to sort by Relative Strength, instead of 1 year, can I do 3 months or any other time frame. And instead of the Relative Strength vs SP500, can I change to RS vs Industry Group where that particular stock resides.
Thanks.

You can't change the formulas behind any of the pre-loaded sort criteria.

However, in the case of Relative Strength, you have an option. The pre-loaded RS criterion sorts vs. the S&P 500 over a 1 year period. Instead of using that, you could actually plot a Relative Strength line on the chart, and then sort by it. When you plot the Relative Strength indicator, you can specify what the benchmark is...the S&P, another stock, or even an Industry Group.

Thanks for your help.
I would not mess with any of the pre-loaded formula.
But if the formula was available, I could modify it to make a PCF.
Thanks.
