I have a watchlist created. I want to fine tune it using a different rule. So I load my watchlist and filter it using the other rule. My problem is this. Whenever I do any of the following the newly filtered list goes back to its original state. For example if my watchlist has 100 stocks and after filtering using the new rule it goes down to 30. So while viewing the 30 stocks if do any of the following the new list of 30 goes become 100 again. So if I want to get the 30 stocks I have to scan the 100 all over again.
1. Changing the time frame while watching the filtered 30.
2. Removing a stock from the filtered 30.
3. Unticking the filter in the new 30. ( I thought this would not refilter)
So how can I keep the filtered 30 while doing any of the above.
Thanks

I do not know of a way to force the WatchList to not re-filter. One option might be to copy the contents of the filtered Watchlist to a Personal WatchList.

I faced a similar situation and developed the following workaround:
(A) Build scanning charts: -- Build one (or a few) chart(s) in order to scan on a desired timeframe. (For example, I might want to scan based on ADX, or MACD, etc., on a weekly basis.)
(B) Clone the above charts not for scanning but for viewing the scanned results from A in another timeframe, or to see other indicators impacting the scanned results from A.
(C) Build other charts -- not for scanning but for viewing the scanned results from A.
(During trading hours, I try to minimize stockfinder's scanning because it freezes sometimes. Not yet sure the cause; my goal is to create more effective scans. I found Elder's book re the Triple Screen very helpful.)
Hope this might help. Marvel
