A strategy that looks at multiple instruments

[parador42]

How would I use the Wizard to create a strategy that looks across several instruments (say 20) and based on some criteria I define select 3 or 4 to then apply individual strategies to?

Hello,

In the Wizard you can only look at and place orders on individual instruments. You can then place that strategy on multiple instruments, but they do not interact or involve more than one instrument at a time.

OK thanks. I assume I can do it via the Script editor? Can you get me started? If I wanted to retrieve currrent info of 20 different instruments (various stocks) and then perform some calculations to determine which 3 or 4 I wanted to use a strategy on how do I query the 20 instruments in one script?
