Re: [amibroker] Why aren't Scan & Explore combined?

IMHO a huge benefit of  having one feature of  SCAN  made available in 
EXPLORE  is described below.
======================================
 I would love to be able to run an EXPLORATION and then be able to SELECT 
 >SHOW CURRENT TRADING TRADING ARROWS, or SHOW ARROWS FOR RAW SIGNALS, or 
SHOW ARROWS FOR ACTUAL TRADES, in exactly the same way that you can when you 
run a simple SCAN.

This would be a real benefit for those of us who look at the last week or so 
of price action before making a buy decision.

When this SCAN feature becomes  also available in an EXPLORATION,  you will 
then be able use something like Dingo's slide show  to quickly view the 
chart patterns, and then look at ONLY the exploration results of the chart 
patterns that look promising.

I suspect that it is   PROGRAMATICALLY  IMPOSSIBLE  to accomplish this.  Ron
