Good afternoon,
Just to join in for the discussion of this interesting topic...
The Relative Strength from IBD concept is to compare the whole
market's stocks to find out the best performers. Therefore, it
should not be just using some kind of weighted ROC or momentum
calculation based purely

I second that. There should be no limit on the number of watch lists.
One of the nice features of TC2000 is the ability to sort any watchlist on a set criteria ( although you are stuck with their boolean equation formulae), which is run once and flag symbols in any watch list including the m

to a watchlist. As far as finding the "top x
It's a fairly simple process to automatically build watchlists on

Yes you can reassign you own definitions to the Industry/Sectors. I have played with this for a modified Hemscott rating system.

The ways AMI and TC2000 implements WL are totally
different. AMI uses so called WL bits for each ticker. TC2000 just uses a list
for each WL.
AMI way is much faster to determine if a ticker

I would think this would be a huge resource hog -- to calculate and then rank a value against 8000+ stocks for each period shown on a chart? Even with a very shaky assumption that all of the data used in the computation had already been downloaded for each of those 8000+ stocks!
