Fundamental Screen.

Hey Everyone,

I tried to set up a simple Fundamental screen through the Wizard but it always comes up with no symbols.

I used the following rule(just to try things out):

var1 = GetData('sales_growth', 'sales growth', LastData) >= GetData('sales_growth', '5y sales grwth', LastData);
filter = (var1);

Nothing is returned. Is there any walkthrough for such a screen?

Hi,

Are you sure you have fundamental data in your "sales_growth" database? Probably not, and that is why you get nothing.

It looks like you have used the following downloader:

This downloader no longer works.

Please use this one instead: Fundamental Valuation Ratios for US Stocks

Ok, I downloaded it and put in PS<=1 to just see if it worked. Nothing was returned.

What exact formula did you use?
Did you run the downloader? You can see data by selecting "Data -> Edit Databases"

Sorry if I'm bugging everyone but I'm Demoing this to see if I want to buy it!

The formula is:,

var1 = GetData('fund_valuation', 'ps', LastData) <= 1;
filter = (var1);

I just run your screen and got many symbols.

Are you sure you downloaded data? Please see your database in "Data -> Edit Databases"
Did you select screen by "Date" or "Bar" in the screener? If you selected "Date", make sure you entered a correct date (Analyzed symbols must have data on that date)

If you still have problems, please send a screenshot of your screen to support [at] quantshare [dot] com

Got it! Thanks! But I'm only pulling up 800 or so(seems they only bring up the As) how do I add the rest?

In the "Screenner" control, click on "Select Symbols" button to select which stocks to use in your screen.
