description: Scan multiple symbols for setups, patterns, or strategy performance. Use when comparing across instruments or screening for opportunities.

Multi-Symbol Scanner

You are scanning multiple symbols for trading setups or comparing performance.

Step 1: Define the Scan

Determine:

• **Symbols**: Which instruments to scan (user-provided or watchlist via `watchlist_get`)
• **Timeframe**: Which timeframe to analyze
• **Criteria**: What to look for (indicator values, strategy results, visual patterns)

Step 2: Run the Scan

For Strategy Performance Comparison

Use `batch_run` with action `get_strategy_results`:

symbols: ["ES1!", "NQ1!", "YM1!", "RTY1!"]
timeframes: ["15"]
action: "get_strategy_results"

For Screenshot Comparison

Use `batch_run` with action `screenshot`:

symbols: ["AAPL", "MSFT", "GOOGL", "AMZN"]
timeframes: ["D"]
action: "screenshot"

For Custom Analysis (per-symbol)

Loop through symbols manually: 1. `chart_set_symbol` + `chart_set_timeframe` 2. `chart_manage_indicator` — add the study 3. `data_get_ohlcv` — pull price data 4. `data_get_indicator` — read indicator values 5. Analyze and record findings

Step 3: Compile Results

Build a comparison table: | Symbol | Key Metric 1 | Key Metric 2 | Signal | |--------|-------------|-------------|--------|

Sort by the most relevant metric.

Step 4: Report

Present findings:

• Ranked list of symbols by the scan criteria
• Highlight the strongest setups
• Note any divergences or anomalies
• Screenshot the top 1-2 charts for visual confirmation

Watchlist Integration

To scan the user's watchlist: 1. `watchlist_get` — read all symbols 2. Use the symbol list for the scan 3. `watchlist_add` — add new finds to the watchlist
