Screen
Available only with a Barchart Plus or Premier Membership, you can base a Stock Screener off the symbols currently on the page. This lets you add additional filters to further narrow down the list of candidates.
Example:
- Click "Screen" on the page and the Stock Screener opens, pulling in the symbols from the Opinions page.
- Add additional criteria in the Screener, such as "20-Day Moving Average is greater than the Last Price".
- View the results and save them to a Watchlist, or save the Screener to run again at a later date.
- Running a Saved Screener at a later date will always present a new list of results. Your Saved Screener will always start with the most current set of symbols found on the Opinions page before applying your custom filters and displaying new results.
