the key to generating the list is to know one stock in each of the 197
subgroups. enter that stock in randy's template to find the top 5 for a
variety of ratings, such as composite rating. it took me about a year
to find a stock for each subgroup, because i'm too cheap to buy the $40
book they publish in paper only. attached is a pdf and a xlsm file for
those who may have an interest.

I am having great trouble retreaving weekly information for Puts. I can get Call info. from OX or anybody but not Put prices for weeklys. Is there a problem with getting Put info. It keeps giving me a msg. telling me to use Calls. I am using smfGetOptionQuotes() and tried "w" - Weekly" and 4/5 as expiration dates, none of them work withPuts but all work with Calls. Any suggestions?
Stan

As noted in the documentation, the "OX" data source is only for the Greeks
of calls. OptionsXpress doesn't have a bookmarkable URL that has Greeks for
the puts, at least not one I've been able to figure out.
