Real-Time Market Scanner
Our Real-Time Market Scanner is also known as a "screener", "radar screen", or “quote board” in other trading software. It’s an Excel-like sheet that is capable of showing thousands of streaming quotes and other important information. You can also add technical analysis indicators to quotes to get additional insight into the market.
What is the Scanner?Real-Time Scanner is used for monitoring, researching, and organizing the symbols you are interested in. While a single chart gives you details about one symbol, the scanner allows you to spot opportunities among many symbols. |
 |
|
For example, you want to find all symbols that have oversold recently. The logic is that these instruments will be below their normal value and they present a potentially profitable opportunity. To do this, simply add symbols that interest you into the scanner, insert a pre-built stochastic indicator, and sort from smallest to largest indicator values. Top of the list will show you symbols that represent the best buying opportunities. |
 |
See the big pictureYou can use different resolutions in different rows. For example, you could have the same symbol in tick, minute and day resolutions to monitor different trends. For even more flexibility each row can have its own session template and a unique number of bars a study will reference. |

20+ Important Data Fields |
|
View a chart with one clickIn addition to symbol linking, which allows you to change chart contents with a single click, MultiCharts has a unique feature called Market Trend Histogram. This allows you to see market dynamics without building a chart, but if you can still make a full-sized chart with one click if needed. |

Scan and sort with easeScanner can automatically re-sort symbols either on a per-second basis or by a user-defined timer. Since you can sort according to any criteria available, this will help find trading opportunities in a timely fashion. |
Apply hundreds of indicatorsIn addition to hundreds of studies that come with the trading platform, you can create your own, change existing ones and import from a variety of sources. Scanner’s distinctive feature is that you can change cell background and text coloring based on your personal criteria, and even have script-driven text generation in the Scanner cells. |
 |
 |
Alerts that keep you informedYou can create custom visual, sound, and email alert for one or all symbols. Scanner alerts work the same as they do on regular charts. |
Group symbols for easy viewingYou can visually group symbols according to any criteria. An important distinction of having a group is that sorting is realized within each individual group. This means you can select important sectors of the industry, or interesting stock groups, and see which one tops the others. Groups can also be minimized and restored at will. |
 |
 |
Lots of data all in one placeMonitor up to 5,000 real-time or end-of-day symbols per each Scanner window. You can even mix instruments with different resolutions and from different data feeds. |
