DIS: Do you want to learn how to build your own stock screener?

FRI jogged my memory about a website that allows its users to develop their own stock scanners.

I have not used this website for almost a decade. The reason is because they only have a database for Americian stocks. They used to also do Canadian stocks on the TSX and Venture exchanges but sadly stopped maintaining the database and dropped these exchanges totally.

In real life I have an extremely small American dollar portfolio and with over a 25% deficit in the exchange rate I am loathe to add money to this portfolio. Exchange rates kill any potential gains on $transfers in and out. The only solution is to have a good American dollar account and transfer monies in when the Canadian dollar has the advantage and transfer monies out when the US dollar is high wrt the Canadian dollar.

But I digress.... this is the website I am talking about

stockfetcher

There is absolutely a ton of free stuff on this site. There are discussions and examples on how to construct queries that can save hours of combing through stock charts, looking for opportunities.

There are limitations of using the site for free.... the main one is that it will only return 5 prospects per query and to participate in the discussions requires a subscription.

As I said, I don't subscribe and that is only because I am a Canadian trader and unless the stock is listed on Canadian and USA exchanges this site is of little value to me.

However!!! Since I am running an American Fantasy portfolio here I thought I would introduce this website and explain its many features.... some tricks and traps that I have learned and finally to develop a screener of my own using what we have learned.

I AM GOING TO DO THIS IN MY PRIVATE STUDY.... but I am willing to use this thread to explain what I am doing to you.

The condition is that you have to want me to continue this discussion. How do I know if there is enough interest????

Simple....Just "recommend" this post!!!

When I get 10 recommendations then I will continue this thread publicly

************************************************************************************************************

To give you an idea of what I am doing on this site, this is a query I wrote about 10 years ago



This returns 108 results between $5 - $20 but we can only see 5 of them. Here they are





Not bad for 10 seconds of work.... I think I can do better though... I would like to put the rules of my "Trigger Chart" into such a query.

************************************************************************************************************


Remember.... a least 10 recommendations and I will work through this publicly.

It may look confusing at first but this is really simplified query language which reads almost like English sentences

Looking forward to see your response.
