These are the names our scanners flagged on this timeframe, and the reasons they were flagged. They are not recommendations, and ranking #1 is not a prediction that a stock will go up. Always do your own research before trading.

# is the position on this board; amber is live in the top three right now, green is live in the six. Δ is the move since the previous sample, where + means it climbed toward #1. At #1 is time spent leading, and Best · held is the highest slot reached and total time on the board — so a name that led for hours reads differently from one that grazed #6. Every column header sorts. This is a record of what was displayed, not a track record of trades.
