USING THE VOLATILITY AND TREND SCREENERS

1. LAUNCH THE STOCK SCREENER

Let's launch, for example, the screener 'Volatility and Trend - US Stocks'. This screener automatically analyses 99 large US stocks. The screener displays the table below, which allows us to instantaneously find the most volatile stocks over the last 20 days.

Clicking on 'Volatility' displays the most volatile stocks at the top. These stocks are interesting to trade during the day or swing with trend following strategies such as the Black Candle strategy or the WL Vola Open strategy.

2. SORT THE RESULTS

Clicking on 'Short term slope' presents new opportunities by ranking the shares according to the slope of the 20-day moving average (MA20). Below we can see that Intel Corp stock has the 2nd steepest MA20. This stock can be traded in swing with a strategy based on the Three Line Break signal that is only activated on the upside.

In conclusion, the Volatility and Trend screeners are easy to use and high value-added tools as they help traders to detect stocks for their trending strategies such as Black Candle and Three Line Break.
