Suggest getting away from ValueLine (and perhaps SIPro) for modern screening. There are several much better cloud screening services out there with well paid staff that provide consistently reliable and robust screening functions.

Such as Stockcharts; for a few hundred a year, one can build screens starting from basic criteria and add in formulas such as this snippet from their "workbench":

[ [group is SP400] or [group is SP600] or [group is SP500] ]
and [high > yesterday's max(252,high)]

(instantly returns 100 stocks as of today)
They have over 100 technical signals to choose from, many fundamental statistics and the ability to calculate custom fields.

Or Zacks...

Or Barcharts...

or Portfolio123...

VL's schtick was the Timeliness Rank and the Safety Rank, but there's no milk left in that cow and they're not feeding the cow very well (aka Mungo's posts on constant data problems up thread).
