The List » Sorting Opportunities
The columns in the Opportunity List allow you to sort by different criteria. Click on the column name, and VisualTrader will sort on that criterion. For example, if you click on the Above column, the List will be sorted by the securities that are furthest above the Map floor. We will discuss the significance of this later, but for now we need to define each of the columns in the Opportunity List.
- Symbol—This refers to the symbol of a security. It is an alphabetical sort and applies to groups as well.
- Below—Clicking on this column will bring the cylinders that are furthest below the Map floor to the top of the Opportunity List.
- Above—Sorting on this column will bring the symbols that are furthest above the Map floor to the top of the Opportunity List.
- B (Body Color)—This column will sort the Opportunity List by the brightest body color.
- R (Roof Color)—This column will sort the Opportunity List by the brightest roof color.
- S (Signal)—This column contains the signal for the corresponding symbol. There are many different types of signals. Refer to the following table for a complete description.
VisualTrader Signals

- PN (Pattern Name)—This column contains the name of the most recent pattern (if one exists) for the corresponding symbol.
