Technical Analysis Scanner guide
What the technical analysis scan finds
It finds stocks where a technical signal just happened: an indicator cross, a break of a level, a pattern completing.
Doing that by hand means flipping through one chart after another. The Trade Ideas engine does the analysis on every US stock at the same time and streams each hit as it happens.
A real chart exampleReal Trade Ideas chart: a Crossed Above Open alert marked on the bar.
The arrow marks the bar where price moved back above the day’s open, and Crossed Above Open fired right there. Price level alerts like this one and Crossed Above Resistance work the same way: the level is set, and the alert fires on the trade that crosses it.
Risks and common mistakes
Indicators lag price. A MACD cross often comes after a good part of the move.
Short bar lengths fire often and give a lot of false starts. Start with longer bars, or add Relative Volume.
No signal works every time. Test your rules in a simulated account first.
