How a stock screener can help you
What makes the online stock screeners nicer from the manual screeners is the fact that they are incredibly fast. These online screeners can provide you with information in an instant and you can click on the stocks that you want to invest in. Compare this to a manual screener where you will go through a ton of documents to learn about the potential stocks to invest in along with information that may be out of date. You need the newest and most accurate information possible when it comes to choosing stock and ensuring you are making solid investments. Depending upon what company you are signed up with, stock screeners are free to use. There are some that can charge if you don't have a company that helps you with your stock market investing but for most stock market traders, the screener is given to you right away just by downloading it from the company site. It does take a little getting used to when you are new to stock market investing and using the stock screener. However you can start to find your way around stock market investing with a good screener and by using a good broker to help you as well. Some companies like ETrade.com will provide you with additional package options that help you to make the most out of your investments. It is a good idea to look into these packages and to understand the information and possibly download the tutorials so you can watch them on your smartphone when you are on the bus or subway. Here is the problem that new stock market investors tend to have, they go for the popular or well-known stock. Buying stock that is popular at the time doesn't mean this stock is performing well and it's not a good investment for your portfolio. You need to look at the performance of the stock over a specific time period and you also need to look at investing if you find out the company is creating new products or services that look like they will be successful. Just look at the Apple investors that picked up the stock before their line of "I" products was released. They have made a fortune of the stock of this company but many of them purchased when the stock was not performing as high. Some people look at trending stock and see that the stock has crossed a resistance line. You want to use your stock screener to help you as you will input the stock's code and then see a list of companies that can pertain to this type of resistance line. Seeing when the stock might climb again is something that a good stock screener will assist in doing. After you have the list, use your stock screener to gather financial and historical information about the company. This allows you to focus on specific stocks and helps you to avoid choosing stocks that are good today and sour in a week. |
