While
most market scanning software packages simply display
a few canned quote and analysis columns, RadarScreen
takes market scanning to a new level. It allows you
to scan hundreds of symbols
in real-time-based on over 180 technical and fundamental indicators as well as your own custom criteria.
Just imagine being able to watch-tick by tick-as
a multitude of symbols and/or intervals are sorted and
ranked in any order you choose. Imagine the ability
to customize your windows to dynamically change color
to show almost countless market activities.
All this and more is possible with RadarScreen. RadarScreen
is an advanced multi-symbol analysis and scanning tool
that gives you the ability to use the full power and
flexibility of TradeStation's EasyLanguage to define
anything from the simplest to the most complex criteria
for real-time market scanning, ranking and custom indicator
column calculation. It enables you to create custom
scanning formulas that not only reference the current
bar’s data, but also historical data for prior
bars—and even your own custom filters and indicators.
Below are just some of the scanning features RadarScreen
offers you: |

|
|
Over
180 Indicator Columns Included, All Written in EasyLanguage — With RadarScreen, you'll be able to choose
from a library of over 160 built-in indicators, all written
in EasyLanguage, to apply to your symbols, and monitor
them in real-time. This library of technical indicators
includes some of the most popular trading concepts—Moving
Averages, Stochastics, RSIs and many more so you can start
tracking a host of criteria from day one. Simply apply
the indicators to the page of symbols you're following
using a drag and drop interface, and watch as they update
with each tick of the market. |

|
|
Custom Indicator Columns —
But RadarScreen doesn't limit you to just built-in indicator
columns. That's because you can create your own custom
indicators with the power and flexibility of EasyLanguage®.
With EasyLanguage, can describe the trading concepts or
criteria you want to see using English-like statements
and everyday trading terms. So, you can design your own
scanning criteria, define your own indicators and analysis
techniques and combine over 100 built-in math functions
and technical indicators. |
| |
|
|
Unlimited Scanning Criteria — The actual criteria you can scan for are almost
countless. For example, you could have one column list
the top symbols stocks and/or futures contracts that have
been trending in the last 5 days. And you could have another
column track the stocks and/or futures contracts with
the biggest volume increases over their normal volume
for the day. And these are just two simple examples of
the analysis possibilities you have, thanks to the power
and flexibility of EasyLanguage. |
| |
|
|
Custom Filters —
You can easily insert custom filter columns, again written
in EasyLanguage, with full ability to color-code background
and foreground of cell indicators as columns in RadarScreen.
Choose from TradeStation’s library of built-in
indicators or create your own indicators using EasyLanguage
and then enable them for use in RadarScreen. |

Dynamic Ranking and Sorting — RadarScreen dynamically
ranks and sorts up to 1000 symbols in real-time based
on your own custom sort criteria. Symbols are ranked
relative to others based on all column headings at once,
and on numerous criteria. You can even break up symbol
categories into different pages or sub-sort the symbols
on a page by including a blank row between categories.
By placing a blank row between groups of stocks, you
can sort and rank within different groups all on the
same page. Then, watch as the symbols change ranking
positions according to the conditions you have set. |
| |
|
|
Color Code with SmartStyling™ — With SmartStyling, you can color-code
each cell to change dynamically as the market shifts.
For example, if you'd like to see a group of symbols
ranked by volume, but you'd also like to quickly identify
which stocks and/or futures contracts are trading above
the 10-day moving average, you can ask RadarScreen to
color code cells for symbols with that criteria. |
| |
|
|
Custom Alerts —
Wherever you are, RadarScreen tracks the markets for
you and sends you alerts in a host of different ways.
On your screen, if you're at your computer. By e-mail,
if you're at the office. You can even set up RadarScreen
to deliver quotes at timed intervals to your computer
via e-mail. Simply ask RadarScreen to send you updates
on a list of symbols you're tracking, and specify any
time interval in 5 minute increments. RadarScreen even
knows not to send you updates if there has been no change
in the specified time, assuring that you don't get pages
after market hours. And, you can set alerts on every
single symbol within the list you're tracking, every
single column and every single indicator, whether custom
or built-in, which means that you can know instantly
when a trading opportunity arises based on your criteria. |

Different Bar Interval for
Each Row — You can set bar intervals
independently for each row in RadarScreen, allowing
you to see and compare chart values and data in a tabular
format. For example, you can choose to have one row
display MSFT daily data and another display MSFT 5 minute
data or have one row display E-mini 50-minute data and
another display 1 minute data. The column calculations
for each row will be based on the interval specified
for that row, providing the ability to see and easily
compare chart values in a tabular format. |
| |
|
|
Support for Symbol Lists —
Add symbols easily with customizable lists, and rank and
sort them as you choose. RadarScreen includes the ability
to add symbols easily and quickly by simply typing them
directly in a cell. Plus, RadarScreen includes pre-built
symbol lists of industry sectors, exchanges, etc. for
even more ease of use. You can actually create and save
your own custom symbol lists, as well. So, adding lists
like "My Favorite Trade Candidates" is a breeze. |
| |
|
|
Pre-Built and Custom Templates — Allows you to quickly change columns/sorting/ranking
criteria by applying your favorite RadarScreen template
with just a few mouse clicks... |
| |
|
|
Support for Custom Time Sessions
(e.g. Pre/Post Market Data) — Allows you
to create your own custom sessions in RadarScreen to customize
what data you want to see. For example, you can choose
to see pre-market data, regular session data and post-market
data reflected in all indicator columns on a symbol-by-symbol
basis or choose to see a custom session that only displays
the E-mini trading between 9:30 and 4:00. |
| |
|
|
Multiple Processor Support —
We've also designed it to include support for Multiple
Processors and multi-threaded applications. This means
that you can unleash the full potential of the latest
state-of-the-art operating systems by working with up
to eight CPUs on the same machine. How does this help
your trading? It will insure that you get maximum power
and speed, and that your computer will work more smoothly. |

Replaces the Quotes Window in TradeStation — The RadarScreen window includes the full functionality of the Quotes window in TradeStation. So, you can use it as a regular quote window and then apply custom indicator columns and filters when needed. |

|
|
3rd Party Data — RadarScreen® now supports data that enables you to plot proprietary data or data for exotic markets. |
