Sean: You can break the line at the comma, and avoid the long lines, as in:

println Symbol , "," , " Close:", Close(0) , "," ,
" Vol:", vol(0) , " , " , "PE:", PE , " , " ,
"QRS:", QRS(0) , "," , description

It was you who taught me this trick, too, after I posted some absurdly long output lines.

Anyway, all this is neither here nor there, since I've given up technical analysis (and air-traffic control) in favor of sheep herding. I've found that it's easier to keep track of my sheep than my investments (or airplanes, for that matter). Also, I have to download my sheep only once a year, when I bring them down from the high pastures.

Ya, It works now. The reason is not
because of breaking the line as
in Brookelise's response. But
rather because the line was broken
before the quote was closed.

Thanks Sean.

Jerry

P.S. Happy sheep herding and downloading,
Brookelise. :)

Sean, or if anyone....forgive me for asking this before...does this scan look for stocks that have made a new closing price high 2,3,4 days ago?

Loop(-2,-4) // go back 2-4 days
AllGroup // All Conditions Must Be Met
Exchange=NASDAQ
Exchange=NYSE
Close(0) > Max(-1 , -60 , cl) // new 2 month high
AvgVol(0,-5) >1000 // 5 day average vol<100,000
Close(0)>20

Thanks! I am fine tuning a scan for Cooper's 1,2,3,4's setup, any suggestions/comments welcome!
