Controlling ProScreener refresh?

  Is there any way to control how often PS refreshes to show new instruments which fit the screening criteria? Or to stop automatic refresh altogether and just do it manually?

  It’s impractical when you are screening a list of candidates one by one then all of a sudden the screen is refreshed and new items appear and the list order is changed. You can’t do any systematic screening like that.

  Thanks

  The best way to do would be to export the list in csv format and import it into your preferred worksheet editor and work from there.

  Actually I’ve found a solution of sorts. Using the wrench that configures what columns to display, add time added. Then sort by that column and all new results will appear at the bottom. It’s not perfect because previous matches that no longer match the screen criteria (but still might be of interest) will be deleted, but good enough.

  You could also make a conditions that look for past results of the last X bars, example to include the last X bars result of a RSI crosses the mid level.

  mycondition = rsi[14] crosses over 50 result = summation[5](mycondition)>0 screener[result]

  1 2 3 4 5

  mycondition = rsi[14] crosses over 50   result = summation[5](mycondition)>0   screener[result]
