MATCHFUNFIELD() Function
The MATCHFUNFIELD()
scripting function allows you to reference any fundamental / data value available, including text such as Sectors or Asset Class.
Examples
If you wanted to run a scan across an entire exchange, but limit the results to just symbols that are Stocks (excluding ETFs, etc), you can add the following criteria to your script:
MATCHFUNFIELD(FEED=MA, FIELD=Asset Class, FIELDVALUE=Stock)
Click on the Field option to select the required data from the data lilst, and enter Field Value:
Only codes with an Asset Class of Stock would be displayed in the scans results.
Using the example script above, only codes in the Watchlist with an Asset Class of STOCK passes the criteria.
Nasdaq-only scan
To scan for only Nasdaq stocks from the US Equities exchange use the following with the market identifier MIC field:
MATCHFUNFIELD(FEED=MA, FIELD=MIC, FIELDVALUE=XNAS)
