Hi Roy, This looks like a nice scan. I no longer use R1 so may not be on target here, (testing Beta R2.) Perhaps you could upload a file of your results to compare with the scan. Do you input a value other than zero, (A:=0 //A= Day to start search loop,) in this part of the function. This is the only place I can see as to why your scan results may not agree with previous results. Arctic Mike

Hi Roy, This may not be quite what you hoped for, but I've played this game, by running a batch program (WinBatch) outside QP scan and stepping through values for A (the day to start the search loop) - modifying the scan file before each run. You're right when you note that you will only get 1 occurrence for each symbol. But if you run the scan multiple times with A=-400,-390,-380,-370,... and concatenate the output, you can import the final output file into excel and sort/process, etc. all the hits together. It will be easier with QP2 (sure... everyone says this) because you can control the looping and use an if condition to print a line. Good luck, Paul
