Step-by-step

  1. Purpose

    Symbols that matched downside rules — broken support, distribution, stage deterioration. For hedging research or avoid lists. Not a short-sale recommendation list.

  2. Bearish score

    Downside score from trend weakness, RS, volume on down days, and pattern flags. Higher = more bearish structure in the model.

  3. Risk labels

    Severe, Elevated, and Moderate summarize the score band. Read the pattern tag for the specific trigger.

  4. Filter pills

    All shows the full list. Strongest keeps highest downside scores. F&O limits to derivative-eligible symbols.

  5. Not an exit signal

    Listing here does not mean you must sell holdings. One bearish filter for your process.

  6. Pair with bullish scans

    Cross-check names from Base Formation or Momentum Buildup for overlapping bearish flags.

  7. Stock page

    Open any card for historical appearances, stage, and RS — same layout as bullish scanners.

Detailed reference

Downside vs bullish scans

Breakout scanners tag strength. Downside Risk uses a separate bearish rule set on weak or breaking structure.

Fields on each card

  • Total score (0–100) — weighted mix of base quality, RS, volume participation, and failure-risk flags.
  • Signal — short label from the score band (Very Strong down to Weak). Describes the row, not an action.
  • RS rank — percentile vs other names in the same nightly scan (higher = stronger relative performance).
  • Vol Q — volume quality tag (dry-up in a base, surge on a break, low participation on a clear, etc.).
  • From pivot — distance (%) from the scan’s pivot level; extension context only.
  • Fail risk — flag when structure looks extended, late, or prone to false breaks in the model.
  • Vol ×50d — how the signal-day volume compared to the 50-day average on breakout-style scans.

Filter pills

Pills like All, Strongest, F&O, Vol Confirmed, and Leading RS only hide rows on your screen. They do not re-run the scan or change saved data.
