Loop through companies

[jsanders]

Is there a way to loop through all companies looking for patterns, such as moving average crossovers?

That is the purpose of the Market Analyzer in NT.

I would like to do it programmatically. Is there a way to do so?

You would have to use a multi-timeframe script, loading all the instruments that you want to test. After that, it is just a for loop to test every BarSeries.

Thank you. I'm somewhat new to NT. Could you provide more info or a link? Would I have to have all companies loaded?
