Screen categories

The hardest part of deciding what to invest is actually deciding what criteria that traders want to consider in a company. The set of criteria can be customized based on the type of trading or investment that we perform. Longer-term investors which focus primarily on fundamental analysis can be divided into a few categories:

What to filter?

Different trading approaches possess risks at various levels, so it is very important for traders to understand in depth on the risk management and the rate of return of the investment approach that we are using.

There are several considerations which have to be taken before deciding what kind of screening that traders want to obey:

• The time taken for the profits to be earned
• The risk tolerance and needs of traders
• The suitability of the investing styles to the current stock market condition (bullish, sideways or bearish)
• The frequency of the list qualified stocks to change
• The amount of investing capital required

Conclusion

Stocks screening is an initial step of investment to help traders to narrow down the stocks that meet your expectations and requirement efficiently on making a wise decision in stock investment. However, it is neither a substitute for independent research on the stocks nor buy list of the stocks. Further study on the financial background stocks has to be done before we start our investment.  For knowing more on how to use MQ Trader Fundamental Analysis System, you can read Introduction to MQ Trader Trading Strategies.
