Find trade ideas

High-quality ideas in your inbox.

A screener with historical setup win rates and returns, plus AI-analyzed price-action, market and peer context—so your watchlist goes beyond a filter match.

How we are better

  • Historical setup results across supported holding periods
  • Gap, trend, peer and relative-market context
  • Saved presets and user-controlled delivery timing

Build a watchlist you can actually review

  1. 1
    Open the Screener

    Press Screener in the bar at the top of any page. On a phone it is in the menu. Running a house screen is free.

    Show me →
  2. 2
    Pick a house screen

    Three house screens, each a fixed set of rules applied to every stock we cover. Nothing runs until you press a card.

    Show me →
  3. 3
    Read how the screen has done

    The filter overview shows the screen’s holding period and how its past daily lists turned out. Past results only; they say nothing about today’s list.

    Show me →
  4. 4
    Open a name’s evidence

    Each row opens to the rules the stock met, an AI reading of its price, peers and market, and conditions to watch.

    Keep it, and get it by e-mail

    “Keep this screen” saves it to your account. “Email me these” sends its names on the days and time you pick, only when the list changes unless you choose every time.

Find entry and exit points

Clear and reliable trade planning

Support, resistance and historical breakout zones, with past outcomes to help you weigh entry, stop and exit scenarios for the holding period you trade.

How we are better

  • Entry, invalidation and exit references
  • Historical outcomes across supported holding periods
  • Past failures shown alongside successful setups

Build your first level-based trade plan

  1. 1
    Find your stock

    Type a ticker or a company name in the search bar at the top of any page, then pick it from the list. SPY is free on every tab; Support / Resistance never spends a run.

  2. 2
    Read the summary at the top

    The stock page opens on a summary: a one-line market read, the options snapshot, and the nearest support below the last close and the nearest resistance above it, with the distance to each.

    Show me →
  3. 3
    Open Support / Resistance

    Weekly support and resistance levels come from 12 methods, called level families. The chips choose which one draws the chart, and VS Select combines all 12.

    Show me →
  4. 4
    Read the chart

    Daily candles with each week’s support and resistance lines. Focus a past week to see whether its levels held (Win) or broke (Loss). Win and Loss describe the level, not a trade.

    Show me →
  5. 5
    Press Historic performance

    How the nearest resistance and support have fared: hold rate and stickiness over their full history, then wins, losses and untested over the last 10 and the last 50 observations.

    Show me →
  6. 6
    Read the current levels

    On the chart’s right edge, the levels in force this week, marked close, mid or far from the last close, with how often past tests held and how many times each was retested.

    Show me →
  7. 7
    Open a level’s details

    The panel icon on a tag opens the level’s details: the exact level, its break threshold, the break distance, the mean move after held tests and the historical move endpoint. Each figure is marked direct (measured) or derived (calculated).

    Show me →
  8. 8
    Look back at past weeks

    Each line on the chart is a past week’s level. Press its end to see that week: the level as issued, the week’s low, high and close, its hold rate, retests and hard break, and whether it held (Win) or broke (Loss).

    Show me →
  9. 9
    Ask Alfred about the levels

    Alfred answers from this chart only and shows what it read. Start from a suggestion such as Nearest Levels or Price Boundaries. On SPY it is free.

    Show me →

Levels come from how price behaved in the past; they are not orders or targets.

Identify breakout zones

See signal win rates and mean net returns over a week, month and quarter — and how support and resistance held up before.

How we are better

  • 15 years of data · 12 families
  • Past failures shown alongside successful setups

Confidence starts with seeing the evidence.

  1. 1
    Find your stock

    Type a ticker or a company name in the search bar at the top of any page, then pick it from the list. Support / Resistance never spends a run, on any ticker.

  2. 2
    Check the levels in the summary

    The summary shows the nearest support below the last close and the nearest resistance above it, with the distance to each: how far price has to travel to test them.

    Show me →
  3. 3
    Open Support / Resistance and press a current level

    On the chart’s right edge, press the level price is nearest. Its tag shows the side, the price, how often past tests held and how many times it was retested.

    Show me →
  4. 4
    Find the break threshold

    In the level’s details, the break threshold is the price past which the level counts as broken: above a resistance, below a support. Beyond it, the level no longer applies. That makes it a reference point for stop losses and breakout trades.

    Show me →
  5. 5
    Measure the distance to the break

    Break distance is how far the break threshold sits beyond the level, as a share of the level: the smaller it is, the closer a break sits to the level.

    Show me →
  6. 6
    Check how the levels held before

    Historic performance shows the nearest levels’ hold rate and stickiness over their full history, then wins, losses and untested over the last 10 and the last 50 observations.

    See past breaks on the chart

    Each past week’s level ends in a marker. Press it to see whether that week’s level held (Win) or broke (Loss), with the week’s low, high and close and its hard break.

Make your first Options Intel reading useful

  1. 1
    Find your stock

    Type a ticker or a company name in the search bar at the top of any page, then pick it from the list. SPY is free; any other ticker spends one run a New York day on Options Indicators.

  2. 2
    Read the six groups in the summary

    The same indicators in six groups, such as directional positioning or dealer hedging pressure. Each bar is the group’s average score from −100 (bearish lean) to +100 (bullish lean); a bar near zero means its indicators are neutral or disagree.

    Show me →
  3. 3
    Open Options Indicators

    On any ticker but SPY, a card asks before anything is spent: one run opens the whole tab for that ticker for the rest of the New York day, and coming back later that day is free. SPY is always free.

  4. 4
    Six groups, one score each

    Every options indicator we compute for this ticker, in six groups. A group’s score runs from −100 to +100: under ±10 reads neutral, from ±10 a slight lean, from ±25 bullish or bearish.

    Check past results

    Pick Week, Month or Quarter to see the share of past signals that closed in the signalled direction and their average net move. They describe the past, not the odds for today.

  8. 8
    Open an indicator

    Press a row to open it: what the indicator shows and what it cannot tell you, then its past outcomes by calendar week, month and quarter, beside a matched baseline over the same dates. Switch the view (direction, history rank, peer rank or momentum) and the sample (full history, last 50 or last 10).

    Show me →
  9. 9
    Ask Alfred which readings disagree

    Alfred answers from this tab’s indicator rows and the notes behind them, and shows what it read. Start from a suggestion such as “Which readings disagree?” or “What does this rank actually measure?”, or ask your own question.

The ranks are relative, not odds and not a call on the share price.

Follow the narrative

Know the narrative, regain control.

Separate the supporting and challenging narratives in the headlines. Compare price reaction with daily snapshots of options positioning across expirations.

How we are better

  • Supporting and challenging narratives together
  • Near and further expiration groups kept separate
  • New developments distinguished from repeated coverage

Start with the case—and the countercase

  1. 1
    Find your stock

    Type a ticker or a company name in the search bar at the top of any page, then pick it from the list. SPY is free; any other ticker spends one run a New York day on News + Sentiment.

  2. 2
    Open News + Sentiment

    On any ticker but SPY, a card asks before a run is spent; one run opens the tab for that ticker for the rest of the day. Each day’s edition covers the stock’s stories from a two-day window.

    Today’s question and its two narratives

    Today’s contested question for this stock, written once a day by an AI analysis of the edition’s stories and the options chart. The leading narrative has the most support in today’s evidence; a challenger is shown only when it clears the same evidence bar.

    Read the 3D Sentiment chart

    Options activity by strike and expiry: each panel is one expiry, and its bars show where bullish (green) and bearish (red) exposure sits at each strike, with the last close as the dashed line. Total Exposure adds every expiry together. It shows which prices and which dates the options market is positioned around. It is market data, not an AI reading.

    Change what the chart compares

    Group the expiries weekly, monthly or quarterly, and pick the change period: 1, 5 or 30 days. Netflows, under the chart, marks each day’s flow bullish, bearish or mixed.

  7. 7
    Read the 1-day snapshot

    How the options market moved on the edition’s day: the change in open interest for each expiry, coloured bullish or bearish, with the average change across expiries. Near expiries tend to carry short-term, speculative bets and far expiries longer-term and hedging positions, so you can see which decision horizon the day’s money moved in.

    Why it matters, and what would change it

    Open a story for a note on why it matters, from the same daily analysis. Then ask Alfred “What would change the narrative?”: it answers from this edition and the chart only.

It summarises what is being argued; it is not a recommendation.

    Read the answer and what it used

    Each answer names the data behind it, with its date, keeps facts and calculations apart from interpretation, and lists the gaps: what it estimated and what it did not read. It says what the data shows; it does not say what a price will do or what to trade.
