[ Fast Scan ] Richard,

>> I run this scan on my DX486/33 and takes 1 hour and 15 minutes on the QUOTE+ 11,000 stock database. I'm now looking for a P200 computer. >>

I've been changing and running a lot of different scans and then saving them in weekly directories to track the results.
I ran your scan in no time......... FAST !!!

I use a little selector scan first and then I run ALL my other scans from the first scan. It fits most all of my scans except for Puts or down closes.

I call it 111FAST.scn.[ so it lands at the top of your scan lists]....... All it does is reduce the # of stocks scanned an finds them in your immediate need for price range to maximize your idle dollars. Output on this one was less than 600.
At any given point there are a lot of stocks that fit my need so I modify the price range often in order to max out my returns.

*********************************
// List Reducer FAST By Ray C
// Save it as 111Fast.scn

/// Between a 10 & 17 dollar stock
Close(0) >=10
Close(0) <=17

// Closed up or Doji today
//Change for scans that look for down close
close (0) >= open(0)

// And 30,000 shares average volume
AvgVol(0,-29) >= 300
//end
*************************************
// now add this line to the top line of all your other scans

Input = "111FAST.lst"

************************************

It still takes a little while to run the 111fast.scn but with a list of 600 or so my computer will save almost the entire 600 in RAM memory and Zip through 30 different scans every night and access my hard drive very very seldom. The more the merrier Right ??

Thanks for your scan after I added 111FAST to it....
IT TOOK 10 SECONDS TO RUN ON MY COMPUTER !!!!!!!.....:-))))

Ray

Maybe I should call it 10SEC.scn. :-))
