Can anyone recommend a reliable website and/or service where I can make customized scans, using end of day data. Ex. Find stocks on NYSE that have had 4 down days in a row. Ex. Stocks that have moved above their upper Bollinger Band. Thanks
TC2000 is the undisputed champ, as I've been told anyway. Maybe in a few days I will be able to offer a personal opinion. There is also Quotes Plus.
Have you tried wealthlab, or TC2000, or pcquote.com? I believe all of these offer free end of day scans, some quite sophisticated, and if you know how to program, you can create your own. nitro
Something like that: http://www.marketscreen.com/report/...index_25.xml&archive=2002_02_14&usettt=&desc= http://www.marketscreen.com/report/...index_15.xml&archive=2002_02_14&usettt=&desc=
Whooops! Almost forgot.......the scans are delayed a couple of days. The service is around $50/mo with a one-month free trial.
SiliconInvestor.com has some great end of day scanning with lots of criteria using technical indicators. I have also started using TC-2000 within the past few weeks and I really like it. Although the scans are a little more canned than SI. Or, if you want a stock that is down 4 days in a row, you could just throw a dart at the WSJ. Regards,
I've been using TC2000 for years. I've been able translate all types of ideas (i.e. Jeff Cooper, Hit & Run Trading, Tony Oz) as well as my own like, stocks down hard on volume (looking for the bounce) 3 day pull backs, most active with increasing volume, contracting range and volume etc....I have Metastock for more detailed scans (like referencing another symbol), but TC2000 is without a doubt the best tool I use for finding trades and keeping watch lists. If you want, e-mail me and I can send you some examples. jfb88@rcn.com
