Hitman,
I meant compared to me that's what you are.
Also, I'm afraid you're doomed to the blue collar. It's the blue collar man that worries about 10 bucks. Don't worry about the label, you'll get used to it.
Magna,
No mentioning Hitman's lack of integrity. Leave that on the MSN boards.

Hi Hitman,
I can offer a couple of suggestions if your intent upon getting the Metastock program, which in my mind will give you the ability to seek the special occurrences your looking for, and more if you have a future need. I have used Omega's products for years and think that the EOD products (Supercharts/Metastock) are fairly similar in capabilities. The interfaces differ.
Pullbacks and breakouts have been my area of interest.
*ATR- average true range indicator
*BBW- bollinger band width indicator
*HVR- historic volatility ratio indicator
*SDI- standard deviation indicator
Using 1 or more of the above, you can hone in on those securities that are "poised" to move. I realize this is not exactly what you were asking for and I have no idea if you can sort in Metastock based on Exchange/Industry. http://www.QP2.com is a nice program for other reasons.
BTW - I enjoy reading about how your day went.
The above represent my opinions and experience.
I hope this helps.

Hmm, but the briefing milk costs $10. It's not free, is it? Now, why buy the cow if you can steal the milk is a whole different issue. Paying for things is blue colar, but stealing them is white colar. I don't get it.
Much more to learn ... much more
No one is going to scare him away! Hitman is a survivor! I enjoy that thread as well, and I'm sure it will be packaged as a book and will be published by a major publication house. That thread is pure gold
Keep it up hitman.

Hitman,
I know it's been a while since you used TC2000 but it will easily do the job. The formula is:
AVGH20 - AVGL20 > 1.5
Then, along with any other parameters you want (like only listed stocks, average vol > 200K, etc.) you can create an EasyScan and restrict it to a particular sector. Of course you would have to do this sector by sector (as there's no way to get it to provide an overall list, sorted by sector) but it would do the job. Don't know if it's better than QP2 as I've never used that program.
I subscribe but I can't even remember what the price is since I do it once a year, but I know it falls somewhere in between $27 - $30 per month.
