About Ticker Profiles
Learn how and when to use each ticker profile to scan real-time AI setups, momentum breakouts, earnings reactions, and institutional flow across thousands of active stocks.
Default
Unfiltered profiles that track broad market activity across all sessions. These are designed for general exploration and include context-specific views for the Pre Market, Regular Market, Post Market, and Market Closed periods.
AI Setups
Profiles that feature only tickers with an active AI - Alpha Strategy, along with real-time Risk/Reward and Path to Target overlays. These setups are generated by MarketAlpha’s AI engine in response to evolving price structure, momentum, and support/resistance clarity — highlighting high-conviction, trade-ready opportunities.
Custom Strategies
Profiles for evaluating risk/reward and structural clarity outside AI strategy preferences. Includes profiles for Long Risk/Reward and Short Risk/Reward filtering, designed for strategy-specific workflows.
Liquid & Active
Profiles focused on extended hours activity and highly liquid stocks with acceptable volatility. Includes setups forming in the Active Pre Market and Active Post Market, as well as intraday scans for volume, price movement, and structural clarity.
Earnings
Profiles focused on earnings-driven behavior. Includes upcoming reports, post-earnings reactions, and combined momentum from earnings and sales data. Ideal for scanning around earnings windows or detecting fresh leadership after surprise reports.
Momentum
Surfaces tickers with strong trending behavior using relative strength, volume shifts, or rating acceleration. Includes daily and yearly scans for Leaders, Losers, Unusual Volume, and theme-aligned breakout candidates.
