How can I get S&P500 stocks 5-15 min streaming quotes in order to use them in intraday scanner? Is it possible to get premarket quotes to scan for gappers?
Thank you,

Streaming quotes are not required for this task. Here's what the Wiki FAQ says: Is it necessary to have access to intra-bar tick data to daytrade with Wealth-Lab? Could you outline the difficulty you're having?

You can get the opening price. Check out GetSessionOpen in the QuickRef.

Thanks for response Eugene. Could you recommend provider to create 5-15 min Data set for 500 S&P stocks?

What's wrong with the Fidelity static provider?

Nothing wrong with Fidelity.

For the S&P 500, create a free account at www.standardandpoors.com, navigate to the S&P 500 list and find the up-to-date index constituents in the Download Index Data section.

I've wondered why for so long I cannot easily create a shortlist from my DataSets as I could in WLD4? Eugene, are you saying that WLP can do this while WLD cannot?

At the risk of moving too far from the original topic title which is "S&P500 intraday streaming quotes", but to close the question here: there's no scripting support for WatchList* methods as existed in WL3/4, use AronowSoftware's WatchList provider as the only alternative.
