Screener Overview

The Vaanam Screener allows you to scan markets in real-time (1 Minute Resolution) to identify stocks that meet your specific criteria, with automated alerts delivered via email.

What is a Market Screener?​

A market screener is a tool that filters stocks based on technical indicators, fundamental data, or custom conditions. It helps you:

  • Find opportunities — Discover stocks matching your criteria instantly
  • Save time — Automate market scanning instead of manual chart review
  • Stay informed — Get real-time alerts when conditions are met
  • Track multiple strategies — Run multiple screeners simultaneously

  2. Select Universe — Choose stocks from S&P 500, NASDAQ 100, Dow Jones, All stocks, a specific sector, or custom baskets
  3. Configure Alerts — Set up email or webhook notifications
  4. Set Schedule — Choose when to run (interval, daily, or EOD)
  5. Monitor Results — View matched stocks and alert history
