Since everyone is being so nice to DaMaDo, I am emboldened to make my first post here, as another newbie and recent student (3 months) of the stock market who appreciates the good informatin to be had on this site. I have been mostly reading about the market to educate myself so far, and I have to agree with the posters who recommend Tony Oz, he makes a lot of sense to me and I am glad that he holds up well with you more experienced posters. I hope my question is not too much off-subect, but is there any way to approximate the scanning capabilities of the Oz Scanner without going through the Realtick platform? Thanks.
