For a dynamic watchlist one of the criteria is to exclude the symbols in an internal list. However, it does not exclude all of the symbols contained in the internal list. The ones that do appear in the final list show n/a for all computations.
That is, it appears the data has been made inaccessible and that appears to allow that symbol to pass all other filters. (This happens for at least LGND and NUHC)

In order for these stocks to disappear, you have to run the dynamic watchlist list again.
Select it -> Update selected watchlist -> Next -> Finish.

I understand this is not practical and we will make the watchlist automatically updates itself in this case.

Thank you! That clears up the mystery of why only some symbols were not excluded: after some but not all symbol additions/exclusions I had made other changes and thus run through 'finish'.
(BTW, I like the new forum search capability.)

Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
