The Advanced Screener: Find Your Kind of Stock in 60 Seconds

2026-07-21 · 2 min read

A screener is a sieve for the stock market: you decide what "good" means, and it shows you every stock that passes. Here's how to get real value from ours.

The basics

Each filter is one condition: a metric, a direction (≥ at least / ≤ at most) and a number. Filters combine with AND — a stock must pass *all* of them. Pick a metric and a sensible default fills in automatically; the table updates as you type, and green chips above the results always show exactly which conditions produced them.

Three starter recipes

  • Quality compounders: ROE ≥ 18, Debt/Equity ≤ 0.5, Profit growth ≥ 12, P/E ≤ 40. Solid businesses growing steadily without leaning on debt.
  • Value with a pulse: P/E ≤ 15, Dividend yield ≥ 1, AlgoScore ≥ 55. Cheap stocks that the market hasn't left for dead.
  • Momentum leaders: Technical score ≥ 70, Momentum score ≥ 70, Market cap ≥ 1,000 cr. For traders — strength that's already proving itself, with enough liquidity to exit.

Features people miss

  • ⓘ icons on every filter explain the metric in plain language, with its formula.
  • Filter on something unusual — say Promoter holding — and that column appears in the results table so you can see the qualifying value.
  • Save your screeners (sign in first): name a recipe and re-run it any day with one click.
  • The full metric glossary lives at the bottom of the page.

The right mindset

A screener never tells you what to buy — it tells you where *not* to waste time. Screen down from 2,000 stocks to 15, then do the human work: open each page, read the financial summaries and the bear case, and only then decide.
