Is there software that scans custom stock lists for certain chart patterns?

Hi all, I have downloaded a .csv excel file of stocks that have an EPS Rating of 85 or higher and an RS rating of 85 or higher. I use Investor's Business Daily's data tables to find this info.

Is there a scanner that will scan this list of stocks to look for certain chart patterns like the bullish engulfing pattern?

Thanks
 
@trendisyourfriend,
Since you mention Excel, here is one good source from Stocks and Commodities Magazine.

Excel is jack of all trade master of none. A proper tool for scanning stock pattern are stock charting software e.g. Amibroker, NinjaTrader, etc. You can program pattern scanning and scan more efficiently - more stocks and indepth analysis.

1. How many symbols?
2. Do you want a scan on daily OHLC candles or intraday 1- or 5-min candles?
3. Would the scan be real time during market hours or something at EOD?
