Strategy Ticker®

The Strategy Ticker tool can continuously scans the entire market for securities and indexes that meet pre-defined technical analysis parameters.

Instead of watching only a few charts with a few studies, the Strategy Ticker tool can monitor large quantities of data for all NASDAQ and NYSE stocks, indexes, and/or a user defined symbol list.

To open the Strategy Ticker, click Tools > Start Tool in the main menu and select Strategy Ticker.

You select the strategy and time period the Strategy Ticker tool bases its scans on, and it returns a real-time, streaming list of securities and indexes as predefined strategy signals are generated.

The technical strategies available are similar to studies or combinations of studies in Charts but are programmed to display a notification in the Strategy Ticker window of a possible upward trend or downward trend based on selected strategies.

Stock symbols and price and volume data shown here and in the software are for illustrative purposes only. Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., its parent or affiliates, and/or its employees and/or directors may have positions in securities referenced herein, and may, as principal or agent, buy from or sell to clients.

There are several ways you can customize the window to monitor for what best fits your trading strategy:

You select whether to monitor some or all of NASDAQ, NYSE, and/or Index symbols
You can define your own or select from the 30+ pre-built strategies that you wish to monitor.
You can choose what bar sizes you want considered.
You can filter out securities and indexes above or below a certain price, as well as securities and indexes whose five day average volume is below a certain amount.
Finally, you can select from up to 15 columns of data to display in your Strategy Ticker window.
