I actually screen at several places, for several different reasons.
Quick swing, Very bad charts, but you can show a group of charts together and scan for over all 6 month trend, before moving it to stock charts look, link below. I like the week & month "Continuing Trends : Bullish" at the bottom. Will look at year for more stable swing plays. Over all this link offers an excelant range from; the "type of TA movement" desired, to the "company size" of stock, by picking exchanges. http://clearstation.etrade.com/cgi-bin/events?Cmd=techev
But don't forget the leads that come to this board! Finding possible plays from posters asking for a stock look, is about the only benifit I recieve for my work. You guys find me some good stocks sometimes. And all the effort I put in is looking at it for you. No hours of searching a DDing stock after stock.
As for what I use to look at the stock, after I pick it, the link is this link; http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?symbol=GTE&period=DAILY&years=0&months=3&days=0&i... It's set up for my first quick look. The next thing I do is change the Time frame from 3 month to 1 year and change the aroon from 3 day to 14. To get a longer understanding of the history.
Then I pop right over to Yahoo finance for checking the PR story then financials the SEC reports and last a quicky with the key statistics. http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=unvc.ob&d=v1
