Hi Greg,

I use the explorer, but don't use the pre-packaged explorations.
Unfortunately, I don't know how to run more than one at a time.
Equis may have a tool to automate the process. I have tried to do it, but could not accomplish my goal with WinBatch (which is powerful for automating other Windows programs).

Here is a simple MSWin 6.5 exploration which will find stocks with DNS=8 after rebounding from 5 or above. It's meant as a start. It will find some good stocks. (You'll find the formula for DNS in the SI threads too. Thanks to Dave Evans for DNS, and Jerry Gatto for the "DNS rebound" idea.)
