Swing Edge shows research scan results only. Nothing here is a buy, sell, or hold suggestion. Always check the chart and your own plan before any decision.

Step-by-step

  1. Universe picker

    Choose which saved list to scan within: All Stocks, Base Formation, Momentum Continuation, Momentum Buildup, Downside Risk, or pattern universes. You filter an existing snapshot, not live market data.

  2. Field groups

    Expand Score, Relative strength, Momentum & trend, Base / VCP, Volume, Risk, and other groups. Each field has min/max or dropdown operators.

  3. Common fields

    RS rank, RSI, ADX, 10d/20d gain %, Weinstein stage, base depth, pivot distance, Vol Q bins, Fail risk, and more — same columns as stock detail pages.

  4. Run scan

    Hit Run scan to apply filters client-side on the loaded snapshot. Results paginate in table or card view.

  5. Results table

    Symbol, score, RS, RSI, pivot %, signal, and link to stock page. Export is not a broker order — research only.

  6. Saved presets

    Signed-in users save named filter sets and reload them later. Presets store your rules, not auto-trades.

  7. Data freshness

    Results refresh when nightly Scan All completes — same timing as other scanners (~post market close IST).

Detailed reference

Operators

  • ≥ / ≤ — numeric min or max (e.g. RS rank ≥ 70).
  • Equals — enum picks like Stage 2 or RS trend Leading.
  • Is true — boolean flags like stage2 or rs_line_at_high.

Universe vs filter

Universe limits which symbols are loaded (e.g. only Base Formation names). Filters then cut that set by your field rules.
