If you\u2019re someone who has a day job or is still a student, then using a stock screener is just for you. Using a screener that can scan through various parameters from the PSE stocks, from blue chips to your favorite “basura” stocks (3rd liners\/small caps), screening stocks won\u2019t have to be too tedious nor time consuming.<\/p>\n
A common question non-market participant asks investors\/traders is how they can find stocks to buy. Both investors and traders have their own strategies in screening for their stocks. They\u2019ll be explained as follows.<\/p>\n
How to Use a Screener?<\/strong><\/h2>\nInvestors who use fundamental analysis need their ratios. They need to invest in financially sound companies that will do well in the long run. They want to buy stocks that are undervalued and sell when it\u2019s overvalued.<\/p>\n
Here are the ratios available for fundamentalists:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n- Earnings per Share % (EPS %)<\/li>\n
- Return on Equity (ROE)<\/li>\n
- P\/E Ratio (Price to Earnings Ratio)<\/li>\n
- P\/BV (Price to Book Value Ratio)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
They could also use descriptive parameters such as:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n- Sector \u2013 Financial, Property, Mining, and Oil, etc.<\/li>\n
- Price \u2013 Prices relative to stocks in the PSE<\/li>\n
- Change Percentage \u2013 Price changes from its previous day\u2019s close<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The following examples highlight how a fundamental investor can utilize InvestaScreener:<\/strong><\/h3>\nLooking for undervalued companies? Here we\u2019ve easily found 42 companies that are deemed undervalued using the P\/E Ratio as a parameter.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nInvestors can also mix it with other fundamental parameters accordingly with their strategy.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nThey could also filter the screener to only display a specific sector given other fundamental parameter they have entered. In the below example, we used P\/E <10 in the financial sector.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/dailymedia.investagrams.com\/investadaily\/2019\/04\/6.jpg\")
<\/a><\/p>\nThey could also filter stock picks with a technical filter. In the below example, we filtered stocks that are in their long-term uptrend while trading below 15 times their earnings.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nFor traders, screening stocks have never been easier. Here are some filters that you\u2019ll probably need the most:<\/strong><\/h3>\nTrends \u2013 Short-term, Medium-Term, Long-term
\nBasic \u2013 52 Week High (Low), Volume and Value Averages, Date % (Yearly, Monthly, Weekly)
\nIndicators \u2013 Moving Averages (simple and exponential), RSI, DMI, Bollinger Band, and many more<\/p>\n
And arguably one of its coolest filters:<\/strong><\/h3>\nCandlestick Patterns \u2013 Shooting Star, Hanging Man, Inverted Hammer, etc.
\nCandle Types \u2013 Green, Red, or Doji closes
\n…and many others! (Once you are subscribed to InvestaScreener+)<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s say that you want to trade stocks that are on a short-term, medium-term, and long-term uptrend, you could easily find them using the screener. See sample below:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nLet\u2019s try screening stocks that closed with a doji (a candlestick pattern that opened and closed at the same price in a specific timeframe) candle.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nHighlighted by the eclipse in the charts below are the doji candles. Using 4 multiple charts, we displayed the first four stocks based on the above results of InvestaScreener. We can see how accurate and easy it is to screen through all stocks in the PSE with just a few clicks of a button.<\/p>\n
