If you have begun to dabble in BullScript, you may find that BullScancan be a useful tool in learning how to extend your BullScript skills.The general process is to create a BullScan using the item you want tostudy, then use the Generate Script button on the Advanced tab.

This method can be used to learn how to use BullScript to:

• Access various price and fundamentals
• Call indicators and markers with various parameters
  
• Learn how to write script for comparisons suchs as crossovers
• Increase a number by a certain percentage
• anything else you can achieve with the BullScan criteria editor

Example

If you wanted to know how to access the Market Cap data from withinBullScript, you could observe how BullScan does it by following thesesteps:

1. Create a new BullScan
2. Add a new criteria for:
• Is a fundamental : Market Cap
• Is greater than
• 0
3. Click on the advanced tab
4. Click "Generate BullScript"

You will see that the generated BullScript for the filter includes: Security.MarketCap > 0;
From this you could infer that Security.MarketCap is the way to access market cap information.
(Of course, this can also be found in the BullScript help.. but thistechnique can be used to learn about many other things as well).
