I just posted that working at the stock market is an individual thing. My trading style may differ from others. So one should use data which works for their trading style.
I trade chart patterns on a 2 week cycle, with gain targets based on pattern targets in the 10% to 20% gain areas.
I start with a sector Performance which is within the top 3 position on a monthly evaluation, of the FINVIZ group tab.
To find stocks that meet my requirements, on FINVIZ screener tab, I pick stocks under $5 with volumes over 200k and short under 5%. Day trading would require different parameters and position trading or long term investing different still.
But if your swing trading on patterns which should produce gains 10 to 20% gain, within 2 weeks. Picking the hottest monthly Performance sectors, under $5 with volume interest at least 200k a day, works well.
With luck on may find 3 to 5 with interesting chart patterns to take to Stock charts for strong Mindset, Phycology, and Sentiment evaluation, using Volume & TA indicators.
