spread

Is there anyway to ad the spread into a scan? I get so many stocks that have a .10-.15 spread in my scans and I'm playing a stock that has me down $150. the minute I buy????

    Bid and Ask are not available in the drop downs on the scan workbench, so I guess not.

    You could add Full Quote to your chart style, but I think the bid/ask data only displays during market hours, so you can't really review before the market open.

    In general, the most actively traded stocks - high volume institutional quality stocks - will give you better spreads, but even that is not always so.
