Hi Everybody,
I am trying to set up an efficient symbol screening & filtering process, and I am currently faced with two challenges.
First challenge - How can I load each symbol from a large list of symbols in a chart without clicking on the symbol drop-down list hundreds of times? (For example, viewing each symbol from the Russell Top 200)
I’m basically looking for a way to automate the loading of symbols in a chart, one at a time (It seems like there’s no way to create a “customize keyboard” hotkey to help move through the symbol-list. I thought about creating one Page for each of my symbols and then setting up a hotkey for the “Next Page” function, but I don’t know if I will be allowed to create hundreds of Pages.)
Second challenge – I need to find out if there is an efficient way to modify a list of symbols in eSignal. After “filtering” the 200 symbols, there may be around 50 remaining that require another round of visual screening/filtering using other indicators and timeframes. If I simply deleted symbols from the “Edit Symbols List” dialog in order to create my subset of symbols, I would have to re-enter my “master list” of 200 symbols the next time I want to do a complete screening.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to minimize clicks and the typing of symbols for this kind of process?
Thanks in advance!
Scotty
