For TradeStation users

I have created of few custom symbol lists that are useful. I have one list I call Liquid_Nasdaq, it has 28 of the most Liquid stocks on the Nasdaq. I created 4 workspace's and have added by sector breakdown all of the Russell 1000 and Russell 2000 stocks. When I created the sectors using both Russell's I added the sectors together from both of the Russell's. In other words, the Russell 1000 may have had 10 stocks in the Internet sector and the Russell 2000 may have had 20, I created on sector called Internet and it contained 30 stocks. To me it didn't matter if it was in the Russell 1000 or Russell 2000.

I then made an Indicator called morning pop. I apply this Indicator to each of the workspaces I created that have the Russell stock's mentioned above. Each work space has around 800 stocks each. The last one has less than 800. I open each workspace ever evening and look for ScanDay results based on D.R.'s requirements. The ones that have a hit, I then open each chart and look to see if they qualify.

The only caveat is you need RadarScreen to apply an Indicator to all the stocks. The reason why each workspace has 800+ stocks except for the last workspace is that RadarScreen seems to have a limit of about 888 stocks that can have historical data applied.

I do not remember how many sectors the Russell was divided into, some where around 30, I am at work and do not have the exact amount.

If anyone is interested in the custom symbol lists, the workspaces and the easylanguage pop me a note letting me know what you want and I will send it. For those who have TS and RadarScreen and are not familar with setting up worksaces let me know and I will give some instructions.
