To perform the scan, click on the SEARCH button at the bottom of the Query folder. The results will be displayed in a new window. The first 100 results will be displayed ranked by market capitalization. To change how the stocks are ranked, click on the drop- down menu and select "Alphabeta" "Trading Volume" "Trading Price" or "Relative Strength Ranking" and click SEARCH at the bottom of the results window.

If there are more than 100 results, click NEXT to view the next 100. Click PRINT to have the results printed. Only 100 results can be printed at a time.

To save a scan, click on SAVE AS TEMPLATE at the bottom of the window. A new window will pop up, asking you to name the template. The items and parameters you have checked will be saved under that name. To access that scan in the future, click on the TEMPLATE folder across the top of the scan window.
