I made a slight adjustment to the scan code line -
Close(0)>=0.5*Range(0) // strong day
changing it to -
Close(0)-Low(0)>=0.5*Range(0) // strong day
(my interpretation of his intent)

Not that this would cause a zero hit. In fact here's what it pulled up:

ACP 01/02/1998 45.00 3.5 AMERICAN REAL ESTATE PRTNRS COM LP DEP UNIT
CRY 01/02/1998 53.00 33.3 CRYOLIFE INC COM
FYII 01/02/1998 45.00 29.2 F Y I INC COM
HFNC 01/02/1998 30.00 22.9 HFNC FINL CORP COM
JSTN 01/02/1998 63.00 15.4 JUSTIN INDS INC COM
WTHG 01/02/1998 33.00 18.8 WORTHINGTON INDS INC COM

The file will be called whatever you chose to name the scan before running it with a ".lst" extension unless you direct the output with an output="*.lst" statement. It should be located in the QPLUSDAT\LISTS directory.

NESTEGG: I ran the scan and 5 stocks were logged on 1/2/98. The stock selections will be under the list file option. If you name the program xyz then the list name is xyz.lst. You can add a line to tell the program to log the hits under a name you define. The Close(0)>=0.5*Range(0) should be Close(0)-Low(0)>=0.5*Range(0). I think another poster caught this error. Sorry for the confusion
