Without naming names the market leaders are very badly designed and implemented, one lacks basic input validation in fields, etc.

It seems the only thing holding Sierra back from this functionality is the need for 7,000 or so simultaneous real time symbols.

It's frustrating to see many people paying $120/month for a SaaS which is so poorly implemented when Sierra have great engineers. Maybe the market is big enough to consider adding some equity scanner functionality. Maybe server side.

Keep in mind that if the number of symbols being scanned goes over the real-time symbol limit of the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed, then those symbols will not continue to update in real-time once the scan begins on them.

Everyone has different scanner requirements. I doubt you'll find a match across the entire spectrum of traders (Not everyone will be satisfied). But otherwise a very good idea.

Regarding the symbol limits, that is something that which will eventually be gone with the mentioned data feed but we cannot go into details now.
