Important Considerations

Using ChartWatch scans effectively requires an understanding that stock trends can evolve rapidly. Here are a few crucial points:

  1. Volatility: The market is unpredictable; trends can change at any time.
  2. Curated Lists: These are not exhaustive; stocks might not appear daily but could return based on performance criteria.
  3. Research Necessity: Individual investors are encouraged to conduct thorough research before making decisions based on these lists.
