Filter Window Local Tab
Near the bottom of Neovest's Filter window are tabs upon which you may click to access different types of information. The "Filter" and "Log" tabs are always displayed near the bottom of Neovest's Filter window and are designed respectively to (1) display price, net, trend, bid, ask, volume and other essential information on symbols that have been located by a filter or filters that you have selected and (2) record the time when a symbol is added to the "Filter" tab during a particular trading day. The "Local" tab will only appear in a Neovest Filter window after you have added one or more Action Buttons to the Filter window.
Once you select and execute one or more filters in a Neovest Filter window, and symbols that meet the criteria of the filter(s) appear in the "Filter" tab, you may then refer to the "Log" tab to view when each symbol was added to the "Filter" tab. Since Neovest's filters are designed to execute multiple times a day (every 60 seconds, for example), it's likely that new symbols will continue to meet the filtering criteria of the filter or filters that you have selected in a Filter window with each new execution.
In addition, a Neovest Filter "Log" tab may be used to record the time when a symbol is added to the "Local" tab during a particular trading day.
The "Local" tab in a Neovest Filter window is designed to display symbols that have met custom filtering criteria that you have specified.
Using Action Buttons, you may utilize custom filtering criteria to further filter the symbols in the "Filter" tab in a Neovest Filter window. Once you select and execute one or more filters in a Neovest Filter window, and symbols that meet the criteria of the filter(s) appear in the "Filter" tab, you may then click on a Filter window Action Button to which you have assigned custom filtering criteria to further filter the located symbols. The symbols that meet your custom filtering criteria will then appear in the "Local" tab. Once symbols appear in the "Local" tab, you may then refer to a Neovest Filter "Log" tab to view when each symbol that met your custom filtering criteria was added to the "Local" tab.
If you click on an Action Button to turn off your custom filtering criteria, the "Local" tab will be cleared of all symbols and will remain blank until you click on an Action Button again. The "Log" tab will also be cleared of all symbols simultaneously and will begin to log symbols for the "Filter" tab once again. Thus, the "Log" tab in a Neovest Filter window may be used to log symbols for either the "Filter" tab or the "Local" tab during a particular trading day.
The following instructions explain how you may access the "Local" tab in a Neovest Filter window:

Once the "Filter Preferences" box appears, select the "Actions" tab.
