Duh...

So TOS only allows scans based on End of Day data or current day's data.

So I think one way to circumvent this if you need to follow hourly signals is to break things down by how many days your signal is.

For example, a 30 bar %R period on an hourly chart is basically 30/7(bars per day)...or 4 days...

For CCI...60 bar setting...8 days

80 bar setting (bollingers)..11 days...this is rounded down (to compensate)

This could be a crude way of dealing with TOS's shortcomings with respect to scanning for hourly signals.
