| - | StockCharts Extra and Pro members can create and run their own custom technical scans with whatever technical criteria they want. We provide two different workbenches for creating custom technical scans - our Standard Scan Workbench and our Advanced Scan Workbench.

| With the Advanced Scan Workbench, you can insert pre-created scan criteria into your scan from dropdown menus, then customize the criteria to suit your specific requirements. This provides a great deal of power and flexibility to create scans that are specially tailored for you, but does require a little bit of time and effort to master. For more information on using the Advanced Scan Workbench to create custom scans, please see our [[:scans:advanced_scan_workbench|Advanced Scan Workbench]] article in the Support Center. | With the Advanced Scan Workbench, you can insert pre-created scan criteria into your scan from dropdown menus, then customize the criteria to suit your specific requirements.

| While our original scanning tool, the Standard Scan Workbench, can be learned more quickly, it has some significant limitations when creating all but the simplest of scans and isn't recommended for everyday use. However, it can still be a good educational resource for users learning how to write scans. For more info on the Standard Scan Workbench and how to convert standard scans to advanced ones, please see our [[:scans:standard_scan_workbench|Standard Scan Workbench]] page in the Support Center. | While our original scanning tool, the Standard Scan Workbench, can be learned more quickly, it has some significant limitations when creating all but the simplest of scans and isn't recommended for everyday use.
