Summary

The Performance Screen is a market discovery tool designed to help traders quickly identify strength, weakness, and emerging opportunities.

Use:

  • Gainers for leadership and momentum
  • Losers for weakness and bearish opportunities
  • Multi-timeframe analysis for confirmation
  • Settings for focused screening
  • Mini charts for visual validation

When used consistently, the Performance Screen becomes an effective starting point for finding high-probability momentum, continuation, breakout, and reversal opportunities.
