TOM FROM THE HELP MENU:

Exchange ExchangeType[,ExchangeType...]
This function lets you limit your scans to just the exchange(s) you are interested in. For ExchangeType, you can use any of the following:

All - Scan all stocks in database except the S&P Weeklies. This is the default.
INDEXES - Scan the S&P indexes
NYSE - Scan the New York Stock Exchange
AMEX - Scan the American Stock Exchange
NASDAQ - Scan the NASDAQ
OpenEnd - Scan for open end issues
SPWEEKLY - Scan the S&P Weekly stocks. You will not get the S&P Weekly stocks if you specify no exchange type or the ALL exchange type. You must specify SPWEEKLY to obtain the S&P Weekly stocks.

To scan more than one exchange, enter several types, separated by commas.

Example:
Exchange Nyse,Nasdaq
If Close(0) > 30.0 then
println symbol, "," close(0)
endif

This scan selects all NYSE and NASDAQ stocks whose close is greater than 30.0

Hi, Tom--

I see Andy has already responded to your enquiry. I continue to drool with envy re the q+32 beta. Mine still hasn't shown up in the mail, so I am still limping along with the edition I received in October. However, I still download and do my regular scans with V1, so I continue to use my V1 scan library to filter and then update ms.

All the best.

Tom,
Any scan using issuetype or exchange will examine all indices and stocks along the way. You would need to run and occasionally update a prescan and use its output as input to your scan to avoid that.

I find it useful to add things like SIC, Close(0) and Beta so I can sort on those columns in Q+, but the limit on the # of symbols that QP32 can load is currently 5000, so you do need to split or weed the list in order to be able to display it.

Bob

Tom -

You can use exchange=nyse,nasdaq,amex

The scan will still run through the indexes though. The only way to eliminate the indexes is to input from a list that was created using the exchange= keyword.
