>>Greg: With searching and scanning tools on TradeStation, you can see the entire market
in a single glance.
>>Andy: You can scan through every symbol on our data network in a matter of seconds.
>>Greg: It’s like keeping your finger on the pulse of the market.
We have lots of filters to help you find opportunities based on changes in price, time, volume, gaps
up or down, and sudden spikes or dips – so you can see all the symbols in play today.
>>Andy: A lot of our users scan for gainers and losers by percentage, put/call volumes
for options, and unusually high or low volatility. And Hot Lists update throughout the day, every
30 seconds.
>>Greg: When you need more customized scanning, that’s where the Scanner comes in. You can
access any of these pre-built scans with a simple drag-and-drop. Let’s say you want
to use the trading strategy known as Dogs of the Dow, where you invest in the ten Dow
Jones stocks with the highest dividend yields. Just drag that icon into the Scanner, and
there you go – the ten stocks with the highest dividend yields.
>>Greg: Different “Dow”, buddy. That’s D-O-W, not T-A-O.
>>Andy: Right.
>>Greg: Every scan you do is automatically saved, so you can keep going back to see which
symbols were added or dropped.
>>Andy: And it’s the only scanning tool that lets you use your own technical historical
indicators in your global scans. A lot of our traders use the Scanner to narrow
down their search criteria and build their Watch Lists for RadarScreen, which is really
cool if we can just take a minute to….
>>Greg: That’s a whole other video. This one’s about scanning and Hot Lists.
>>Andy: So with Hot Lists, Scanner and RadarScreen, we have three different – but all very powerful
– searching and scanning tools to fulfill your voracious, freakish, borderline psychotic
hunger for trading opportunities. Which we can completely relate to.
>>Greg: When you’re ready to open an account, give us a call.
