Hello Pete , it it possible to create a scan condition with a time based trigger.

For example, if a simple scanner searches for stocks with 10,000 volume+on the day .

By 9:45 am market time , it applies a scan condition that only shows stocks with 10,000+ volume on the day but up %5.

The change +5% filter only applies at and after 9:45am.

Best

Essentially the % condition will only kick in once the market opens

Simply adjust the start and end times to cover the period of time you want the scan to return results.

I will update the title of this question to: "Scan with time based trigger"

So now I am kind of stuck… this is what i have so far when I run the scan during extended hours, nothing shows up. This scan needs to pick up volume extended hours and premarket, and only apply the 5% condition after 9:45am. I have using the default volume slider declare lower; input startTime = 0945; input endTime = 1630; input percentChg = yes; def startOfScan = SecondsFromTime(startTime) > 0; def endOfScan = SecondsTillTime(endTime) > 0; def percentChgover5 = percentChg > .05; plot scanPeriod = startOfScan or endOfScan and percentChgover5;
