After viewing Jeff's startup vid for ATM RS I was unable to select the Run Scan(s) dynamically in the To Do List, required for proper run. Just an FYI. [Edited by ZedandMaynard on 4/4/2021 12:44 PM] | ||||

Update to Above Post: I noticed I tried the initial run with MY SYMBOLS when running the To Do List. Therefore the Scan(s) Dynamically check box grayed out. Selecting ATM RS Boost in Omniscan and then running the To Do List has the Run Scan(s) Dynamically check box available. Can't remember if I had ALL LISTS in this profile selected? As long as All LIST IN THIS PROFILE is selected in the TO DO, all works. Can't delete previous post so just an FYI if you do an intial run as I did withOUT all the proper boxes selected. :/ [Edited by ZedandMaynard on 4/4/2021 12:58 PM] | ||||

I"m on 2021 2E and downloaded ATM4 with RS Boost today through the Shopify site. The behavior I see is a bit different: 1) Enabled RS Boost Scan list 2) If running TO DO while in My Symbols, Run Scan(s) Dynamically is not an option - even if you go into the DSS tab and enable. If DSS in enabled, Process DSS is selectable and Current List is forced. ALL Lists is darkened. 3) If running TO DO while in RS BOOST scan list, you need to Enable DSS in the DSS Tab, then Run Scan(s) Dynamically is selectable, Process DSS is selectable, but Current List is forced. If DSS is turned off and All Lists in this Profile is selected, Run Scan(s) Dynamically is not available. Then turning on DSS forces current list only. On Jeff's youtube vid, he was able to select Run Scan(s) Dynamically without DSS being checked and was able to select All Lists in this Profile instead of Current List being forced. Was just wondering what behavior we should expect. Thank you. | ||||

Let me try to clear that up. Do not select DSS in any shape or form as that isn't involved in any of this. You need to open OmniScan, enable the ATM RS Boost scan, then close OmniScan. You did that in step one, great. The scan will be selected in the Focus List at that point. If it isn't you need to select it. Once the scan is the active list, right-click anywhere inside the Focus List area and select "Set as Dynamic Scan." That's a new setting & will allow the dynamic functionality to be available in the ToDo List when "All Lists in this Profile" is selected. Otherwise Run Scan(s) Dynamically will be grayed out due to not having an active dynamic scan in the profile. | ||||

It is not related to RocketTrade, no. | ||||

Thank you, Barry. That worked like a charm. *Update* - Sorry - the directions are in the Boost Manual (palm slaps forehead) [Edited by rob_i on 4/6/2021 8:38 AM] | ||||

Shouldn't dynamic scan work without ATM RS Boost with OT2021 2E? If I right click in the focus list in a selected OmniScan, I don't get the "Select as Dynamic scan" listed as an option. | ||||

edahib: Before ATM4 what you would have to do is make sure your Focus List was the OmniScan you wanted to use Dynamically and then in the To Do List check the box that says "Run Scan(s) Dynamically" and then "Perform Selected Tasks". The Focus List OmniScan you were running Dynamically would turn light blue in color to let you know it was in the "Dynamic" mode. Tom Helget | ||||

Yes.
If your Focus List's active list is set to an OmniScan & right-clicking the Focus List does not have the "Set as Dynamic Scan" setting, that probably means that the scan is using a Fundamental criteria that isn't supported historically, & therefore dynamic cannot be run on it. | ||||

Hi Barry, After installing ATM RS Boost and running it out of the box with no changes, except for selecting the ATM RS Boost scan and setting it to 'Dynamic', I am getting a Average Ann ROI of 48%. In the marketing and the video presentations I can see it is supposed to be 59%. I know it's not much to go on, but any idea why I am seeing these differences? I have reinstalled ATM4 RS Boost and Omnidata which has not helped. Thanks James ![]() ![]() | ||||

Shortlandj: Have you made sure you have enabled the ATM RS Boost OmniScan to ensure you were getting the benefit of those trades - check out Jeff's tutorial video in the Nirvana Systems Store. Tom Helget | ||||

James, that is what it looks like if the scan isn't incorporated. Make sure first that under Help/About that ATM4 & ATM RS Boost are both registered. If not run Get My CDKeys. Otherwise, check in that profile that ATM RS Boost is enabled & the list is blue (indication that it's set as a dynamic scan), then make sure the ToDo List is set to run dynamic scans, run analysis on all lists, & run portfolio simulation. Click Perform & it should work. | ||||

So I reinstalled RS Boost again, everything is registered and I did a run without enabling the Dynamic Scan and have attached the results. Then I enabled the Dynamic Scan and it increased the Avg Ann ROI by only about 1%. Everything looks like it is setup correctly, so I'm a bit confused about what is happening here. Any more ideas would be gratefully received. Thanks James ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||||

Shortlandj: The Focus List you should be looking at is All analyzed Symbols and not My Symbols. It should also be the Trade Source Focus List in your Portfolio Simulation Settings with the Strategy there All Strategy Voting. Tom Helget | ||||

Thanks for the screenshots, James. Ok try this: - Under Edit -> Data Settings -> Advanced -> Stocks tab, make sure for OmnData Stocks that Automatic Split Adjustment is the only setting enabled in the tab. - Under Tools -> Options -> Data, make sure Filter Data of Possible Bad Bars or Ticks is enabled. - Under Edit -> Exchange Information, make sure NASDAQ is the default exchange. If you had to change any of those settings, restart OT, then run the ToDo List again to download data, run dynamic scan, run analysis, & port sim. If the results are still off, look at the Port Sim trades report at the very end. The Open Positions should have some trades open for the HighFlyers market state showing there. Let me know if they show up or not. If you do see HighFlyers trades at the end of the Port Sim report, I would then recommend reinstalling OmniData. (Close OT, rename or delete the …/Nirvana/OmniData folder, then install from here. | ||||

James: Not to steal from Barry's excellent advice I thought I would put together a little pictorial presentation of the ATM RS Boost Configuration for others that might be struggling to get up and running. First in OmniScan make sure you have enabled ATM RS Boost. It does not come that way and must be done manually: Once the ATM RS Boost OmniScan is enabled return to the Focus List and select it and right-click on it. Choose Set as Dynamic Scan: Your ATM RS Boost Focus List Setting should now have turned teal in color confirming it is indeed set up to Scan Dynamically: Next choose Mode....Portfolio Simulation and make sure your Portfolio Simulation Settings Trade Source Tab looks like this: Now choose Mode.....Real and select All Analyzed Symbols as your current Focus List: I just ran my To Do List making sure Run scan(s) Dynamically was checked: and got the Focus List appearance immediately above. As it is Friday afternoon all my current trades will be closed - however no new trades have yet been selected so there are no in-trade signals. I hope this helps!

Diamondjag: You're most welcome! I know many who had some problems with ATM RS Boost since they hadn't enabled the ATM RS Boost OmniScan initially - unfortunately Nirvana can't do that in the installation. If you fail to do it you will never get the benefit of these "Rocket-like" trades. Also looking at the My Symbols list will never show the results of the ATM RS Boost OmniScan - only if you look at its Focus List or the All Analyzed Symbols Focus List can you see those trades. Again, unfortunately, Jeff indicated in the tutorial on the Nirvana Systems Store to look at the My Symbols List but, once again, the ATM RS Boost OmniScan results never ever show up there.

Barry, James Just did a couple of runs.1st was right out of the box and 2nd was with all of Barrys' recommendation My results match James almost to the tee I did not see a 'High Flyers' trades at the end of the report. I did not see a line in the report 'Open Positions' My default template has no resemblance to James I can attach files if wanted Thanks James (another one) | ||||
