For instance, is there a way to use the market cap for Apple and Facebook and build a filter around that?
I'm not finding a way in the documentation and can't think of a work around. Any ideas?

Here is a simple market cap filter. Not sure what you're asking for specifically.

xarlor, Thanks for your reply and yes, I guess I should have been more detailed. What I'm looking to do is create an indicator that is the composition of the market cap weighting of the FAANG stocks. Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix and Google(Alphabet). Maybe include Tesla too. What I'm thinking is at some point there is going to be a rug pull and the house of cards is going to come crashing down. By using the FAANG stocks there should be some sort of precursor move which should alert to start looking at a short move. I'm thinking that just as the S&P 500 is weighted if I could create an indicator where the value of the indicator is based on the market cap weighting of the FAANG stocks it may provide a window into where the overall market is headed. I know I can do it in EXCEL but since I'm here and pay for Stockfetcher I was hoping others could help me figure out if it is at all possible in SF. My thought is that I would need the market cap of each of the FAANG stocks, weight them, add them together to create a custom indicator or value then use that and moving averages or some other custom version of an existing indicator. Just a thought and looking for ideas

Ah, okay that makes more sense. Maybe something along these lines?
Exit the market when the Weighted FAANGT market cap RSI(14) crosses below 50. Reenter the market when it crosses back above 60.

Sorry, I didn't post this earlier, but SF has a built in fundamental indicator "Market Cap" which is useful as long as you only need the most recent Market Cap value for any stock SF covers.

Thank you all (miketranz, xarlor, nibor) for your help with this filter. The IND command was the thing I was looking for. I haven't had a lot of time to parse the filters, we had a death in the family this weekend. I'll be out of town for a week or so traveling for the funeral so I'll have plenty of time in airports to dive into these and tweak them. I really do appreciate you guys jumping in to help, it's the thing I like most about Stockfetcher!
Coincidentally, Zero Hedge ran an article yesterday addressing the influence of the FAANG stocks on the market and reinforces my thinking behind this scan. It is in my opinion required reading. The link follows. Thanks again for your help !!

I don't think this is the bubble popping just yet, just a bit of a correction / pull back. But based on today's action, when the rug pull does happen it's going to be fast and furious
