Hi All, I want to chart the ^DJX with a custom filter to show specific indicators as follows: but I get all the stocks in the index in return. Is there a way to avoid this? thanks in advance, and sorry if this is too basic...

I found out a little about this in SF itself.
"No. Because StockFetcher does not carry volume details for indices they will not appear in filter results. Additionally, due to the the lack of volume information, charts for an index will not include details beyond basic pricing information.
Please note that this applies to any "apply to symlist" or "apply to watchlist" phrases that contain index(es).
A list of indexes supported on StockFetcher can be found here: Indexes on StockFetcher."
The only way to then visualize movement and other indicator details is by using stock charts..

Closest thing to this that SF can do would be to use DIA as a surrogate for ^DJX.
Stockcharts.com is useful for viewing charts for indices such as ^DJX
