  • How can I add symbols to a quote window or portfolio window from EFS

    As title. I need to add some symbols to my watchlist (quote window) automatically everyday. Those symbols are generated by my external screener. I need to add them to a quote window so that it is easy to browse through them while linking that window to an advanced chart. Any help is appreciated.

    To steal an answer Jay provided earlier today, this might do the trick:

    You can dynamically import a list of symbols into a Quote Window by using the feature called "Dynamic Quote File". This can be found under Quote Options. This essentially sets the symbols in the Quote Window to match the symbols in a txt file. Just write your VB code to export it's results as a txt file, and point the eSignal Quote Window(s) to that file.
    Hope that helps.

          I don't believe that is possible. However you can make any row a comment row by just inserting text in the txt file (no need to precede it with the #sign)
