Swing or Trend then Screen the Stocks

To get started in stock trading, you need to pick stock. How to effectively pick stocks?

MoneyGrowers shares how to screen stock

• need tool to scan stocks: RSI, CCI, Moving averages, Stochastic, etc
• Mark Minervini has a stock template
• screen 200 MA, price above average OR
• MACD, about to cross signal from below (but this option is not found on Tsupetot)

Money Growers has another suggestion

• check stocks with AOTS (see previous post about this) then do Darvas box and watch for those near breakout

Investagram has a screener. Need to be beta user. You be a beta user when you post to your Facebook account

You can also use Tsupetot to screen stock;

TrickTrades shares to do nightly scan or create watch list pre- market using Finviz

• he said to become prepared: study tonight's market for tomorrow's play
• he screens stocks based on price: $20 and under and he plays with small cap

Drake Traderbits uses Investagrams Screener and shares

• chose trend: uptrend + MA 20 above to cross EMA 13 below; but Investagram screener unfornately does not 
• once he gets the stock fitting the above criteria, he used trendlines  to verify the uptrend
• he also manually checks MA 20 and EMA 13 is they are really about to cross
• he adds MACD 

Stock Screen websites/ apps

• Finviz free to use
• Investing.com Stock Screener free to use; one click on the selected indicator
• StockLabs.ph has a stock screener for premium members
• PSE Watch android app
• Tsupetot for PSE

If you want to pick uptrend stocks, you can use COL's technical guide: Research >> Technical >> Technical guide

It will list per sector and in columns the following information: the price, % from 52 week high, trendmode (uptrend/downtrend) then recommendation (sell, buy or hold)

 I usually pick those issues that are on the Top Gainers/Losers. Then observe it in the coming days/weeks. If movement is 'good' to my tastes, I go for it.
