I maintain a few core lists.

1. What's in my portfolio.
2. What I want to buy when the set up is right
3. What I want to sell when the set up is right.

There is an overlap between the above lists. For example something may be in my portfolio but it is looking toppy. So it gets flagged into the last list. Then when I need money, I pick from the sell list. And when I have too much cash, I choose from the second list.

I also maintain secondary lists. These things that I don't know if I want to buy or sell, but they are worth watching closely. For example they may be near the green rail and ready to bounce. But I will want to know how the earnings goes. Just because something bounces off the green rail doesn't make it an automatic buy. You want to make sure that the bounce was justified by some news. And even that news is an earnings beat, it is still not necessarily enough to make me buy it. They may have beaten the earnings and revenue because revenue fell 29% instead of the expectation of 30% drop. So fundamentals do matter.
