Find Stock Trades That Have a Backtested Edge

Our stock scanner shows you the historical performance of every trade setup it finds.

Stock Scanner Service

Our stock scanner identifies trade opportunities that have a backtested edge. Here at Stock Market Guides, our specialty is bringing data and statistics to your trading decisions. With every stock trade setup that comes up in our stock scanner, you’ll be able to see exactly how that trade setup has performed historically in backtests. This allows traders to make fully informed trading decisions. There’s no longer a need to take a blind leap of faith when making a stock trade.

How Our Stock Scanner Works

Here’s an example of what the results look like from our stock scanner. You can see that each scan reflects a specific trading strategy, whether it's based on fundamental analysis (like earnings and sales) or technical analysis (like chart patterns and indicators). Each scan result shows not only the stock, but also how the stock performed historically for that trading strategy according to our backtest research.

Features of Our Stock Scanner

Shows Historical Performance

What makes our stock scanner one-of-a-kind is that each scan result shows how that stock performed in backtests when the same scan conditions were met in the past. Why waste time or money considering trades that don’t have a track record of success?

Gives Complete Trade Setups

Each scan result offers a full trade setup. It gives you a specific amount of time to hold the position. This takes the guesswork out of your trading decisions. You know exactly how long to hold the position.

Get Alerts for New Scan Results

If you pay for our service, then you can enable alerts for any stock scans you want. This means you will get alerted each time our screener picks up new scan results. Alerts can be sent by email or text. You can set your preference after you sign up for the service.

Lots of Ways to Filter Stocks

Subscribers can see all stock scan results at once and sort by the ones that have the best backtested performance. But we also cater to a variety of different ways to search and filter stocks.

Trading Strategy

For our Stock Investing Scanner, filter strategies based on fundamental analysis such as sales, earnings, and P/E ratios. For our Swing Trading Scanner, filter strategies based on technical analysis such as chart patterns, stock indicators. Both services include popular trading strategies as well as proprietary trading strategies we created that have a strong backtested edge.

Historical Performance

Filter trade setups by backtested performance, such as a minimum win percentage or annualized return.

Stock Share Price

You can use scan filters to ensure you only see trade setups for stocks in your preferred price range.

Market Cap or Industry

Use scan filters to limit your results to companies in particular sectors, or filter scan results by company size.

Get Real-Time Scan Results Before and During Market Hours

Our stock scanner looks for trade opportunities both before the market opens (pre-market) and during normal market hours. You'll see new scan results in real time as they occur. This ensures that our scanner caters to a wide audience. For those who have work during the day and can't manage stock trades when the stock market is open, they can use our pre-market scans to find trades that can be administered in pre-market hours before the market opens.
