I made a scan to find stocks with wide day ranges in my ThinkorSwim platform.
Suprisingly, it came up with many great wide day rangers Symbols that are not in the SF database.
I used a blank filter with "symlist ( BORK )" to test for this and other symbols:
BORK
GG/WS
ITMTF
ESYL
SCEI
OXGN
(and many others)
None of these were found. All have decent volume over of 200,000 and are currently trading according to TOS.
All could be good canidates for RFR.
I have emailed SF support to find out why these SYMBOLS are missing. I will follow up when I get a reply.

This pulls up all but ITMTF - do not use spaces in the symlist.

Thanks for your reply.
After trading about 3 emails with Stockfetcher support, it started working.
I am not sure what happened, perhaps SF support tweaked something in the background...just after the 3rd email, the stocks started showing up. On the other hand, it could have been something I had done.
This is a great forum....thanks for following up!
BTW, I can't get ITMTF to show up either. However it appears to be a Canadian stock.
I am currently programming RFR "Travel Guide" in a ThinkorSwim real time scan. The advantage of this other than real time is that TOS probably has some stocks that SF does not carry.
