The Scanner is a data grid that can display quotes, market data, and indicator data in spreadsheet format. Each row always includes the following columns: | |||
'''Symbol''' (first column) | |||
<br>'''Resolution''' (second column) | |||
<br>'''Trend''' (third column) | |||
The positions of the columns above are fixed and cannot be moved. | |||
Ten additional data columns can be added. Each data column can have ten sub-columns. | |||
For example, the '''Data''' column counts as one data column with seven sub-columns. | |||
