Cliff, Glad to hear of someone else trying the daytrading route. I am in the intermediate term (1-6 weeks) for now. Daytrading certainly has an appeal but I think one has to be really on top of the game. I'm pretty new too so I have decided to go the intermediate route and see if it can be shortened. Hope you have some early success. I think what you want for volatility, price ranges, and options is pretty straightforward. I would guess something like: ALLGROUP CLOSE(0)>=5 CLOSE(0)<=30 HASOPTIONS=TRUE STDEV(0,-21)>=X.YZ //YOU DEFINE THE PERIOD AND WHERE X.YZ IS THE STANDARD DEVIATION YOU PICK FOR VOLATILITY If you haven't read all the posts on this thread you should. There have been some scans posted to identify patterns and QP can be coded to scan for gaps. Also you might do a scan for the average true range of a stock to identify the type of volatility you are looking for. I'll give it some thought. The on-line database help that came with QP is a good source of ideas for unleashing the potential of the software. Just some ideas for you to think over..... I haven't been able to concentrate on the short term too much. Let us know how things go. Mark
