What You’ll Find Here
Ticker Metrics
Real-time data columns for individual stocks. Includes technical signals, risk/reward scoring, fundamentals, patterns, volume behavior, ownership, and more. Use this section to understand what each number on the screener means — and how to act on it.
Group Metrics
Metrics for industries, sectors, and market themes. Measure rotation, strength, volatility, fundamental performance, and group-wide setups. Useful for top-down workflows and identifying which groups are driving market movement.
Screener Profiles
Prebuilt scan templates designed to surface relevant setups without needing to apply filters manually. Profiles combine filters, metrics, and sorting logic that reflect specific strategies or behavioral patterns.
