Every upload makes my heart sing! I come to your channel frequently for clear explanation when I don't understand something. Thanks for the plain, concise delivery! Wish I could hit the "like" repeatedly also :)
Sir this video is excellent. You articulate both your words and your video content very well. I have watched several videos on Premarket scanners in ToS that have MANY more views than yours...which is unfortunate because yours makes the most sense. It gets right to the nature of the search...premarket, before things really take off. That is the holy grail of trading from the best place in time. It's akin to getting to the place in the jungle to get the picture of a rare animal -that's the scanner! From there do you have the correct camera, the proper clothing and gear and the skill to position yourself in the vegetation to get that shot - that's the skill needed to enter and exit the trade. Cheers!!!
Excellent video! Subscribed. Another awesome TOS scanner feature is the ability to set alerts. Another asset gets added or dropped, get an instant text message or email. Great for scalping!
Great video. Two questions: 1) How do you show the stocks that moved up or down (instead of only up) more than 2%, and, 2) Will this work in Post-Market?
Thank you for the video and the RVOL script. Here is an improved version of the RVOL script #RVOL script for tos def rVol = volume / Average(volume, 20)[1]; plot Data = round(rVol,2); #AddLabel(yes, round(rVol,2)); Changing to 'plot' will make sorting the RVOL column better. (AddLabel turns the RVOL value into a string, hence the issue with sorting)
these should be the default scanner settings for real! just moved over from SSE and was surprised in TOS that I had manually search out add all these key tabs like mark and mark % change. Thanks man!
Thanks for the video. I don´t know why but i can´t add studies like 9MA cross 20MA at the premarket scan, only the one that you have in your video, but at the market the cross study works fine for me. Do you know if TD allows those type of scanners with other studies premarket or postmarket? Thanks in advance
I like this. I'm new to TOS and had no idea one could script in it. As a programmer, I'm going to have fun with this. The thing with this scan is it seems to to detect moves from yesterday's premarket close ( or yesterday's open) to today's current premarket. I doesn't detect the percentage change from yesterday's market close to the current aftermarket/premarket ( the gappers we're looking for). I'm hoping this can be scripted. I found the tutorials of TOS scripting. I just have to go through them. It seems like a straight forward API. Thanks for this and the revelation TOS has scripts!
I am trying to create a scanner that will tell me what stocks went up in the last 15 minutes in the premarket, and after the market opens, can you make a video on this or tell me what video you have that will explain this?
Very good, thank you. I have been using percentages change for awhile which also works in pre market; will dabble and make some changes see if it refines it bit more.
I cannot figure out how to make this a column at all in my watchlist. Find it so helpful that you shared that this can be done but I do not know how to actually create this column. Is there anyway you can explain? Thanks so much.
@@naples1161 Hi Martha. I had the same question but I was able to figure it out. Let's see if my description proves helpful to you. Either in the Saved Query Watchlist OR within the Scan itself, click on the Gear Icon in the far upper right. Click "Customize". In the upper right is a drop down. Within it, type the word Custom. You will see several "Custom 1" etc listed below. Note the Scroll Icon to the left of the descriptor. Click on the icon. A new window pops up with two tabs, "Condition Wizard" and "thinkScript Editor". Within the Condition Wizard delete anything in there then go to the thinkScript Editor. In the large window this is where you Paste the code that this author offers us. At the top be sure to name this code as you can use it elsewhere in the future. I put my first name in front of the custom scripts that I create. Be sure to follow this authors instructions on what Time to use as you can adjust that, as well. There is likely another approach to accomplishing the same thing but I have yet to master TOS. I hope this helps. Happy Trading Martha.
Do you have a script to create a study filter that looks for dollar-amount premarket increases (as opposed to percentage increases)? I'd like to see stocks that have gained at least a dollar over the previous close, to easily eliminate the penny stocks
I believe for rVol, instead of the script you can go to Add Filter > Study > Unusual Volume and then adjust the parameters to your liking, there is a small category to determine the time frame to the right beside the pencil
Thanks for the helpful tutorial... BUT.. when I copy your format EXACTLY, my scan results are minimal (1-2 stocks) Cant figure out what I am doing differently. and clues?
Quick question...in the study filter you used the CLOSE since there is no option for MARK. Later you add the mark % change in the columns. However, the Mark % Change you can see CNK with 1.10% and ASO with 1.25% as well as others below 2% which was the filter. So is the Study filter not really doing anything in that case?
Appreciate the video but this isn't really Relative Volume..this script is for % of Avg Volume. Relative Volume compares the volume for a particular period/time of day(first 30 min for example) against the typical volume for that exact same period on prior days..Anyone know the script for that?
The relative vol shows yesterdays up until the market opens at 9:30 … is there any way to show the relative vol with just the pre market vol in comparison to the daily average over (x) periods??
Hi. Thanks for video. Though I see this scan shows the increase from last price in regular hours to the price in premarket. I'd like to see the change from last price in after hours. Can anyone tell me please how to do that?
I'm noticing the same issue. Why does it seem like it's only scanning stocks alphabetically? All stocks start with the letter A.B.C. Is there a way to disregard the alphabetical name of the stock to how it is sorting?
Thank you for your video and script. I added the R VOl column. I have a general question about TOS scans. Why do scan results vary when the script is added to the watchlist? It doesn't matter whether it's your scan or any other scan, there is universal inconsistency. It drives me crazy.
how can add the script as column, when I created as study it was added to charts and I'm not seeing it as column when you select the gear icon on scanner. Appreciate your video they are as clear as crystal and digestible!, awesome videos ever!
It's a bid weird for custom columns. You need to open the customize window then scroll down until you see a list saying, custom 1, 2, 3, etc... From there you'll click on the script of one of those and paste in the script I posted then rename it RVOL or Relative volume
In the stock hacker on TOS, under the costom study tab, is there a way for me to scan for a Dollar amount move, in "3 to 5" one minute candles in premarket? Any advice you could give would be greatly appreciated!!
Sir ~ your videos are great! I am thinking of joining your community here in the next 2 months or so. Btw ~ the Relative Volume link says it is broken when I go to add it into TOS. I have successfully added scripts before but this one does not work...seemingly. Could you redo it here potentially? Regards~
This scan only seems to be getting stocks that are UP pre market and not down as well. Anyone else have this issue? Its looking for moves >x% so should scan both directions.
