What are screeners in FYERS and how can I use them?

Screeners are tools that help you quickly identify stocks or contracts that match specific market conditions, without manually analysing every chart or data point.

Instead of checking hundreds of symbols one by one, screeners automatically scan the market for you and show only those instruments that meet predefined conditions based on price, volume, or technical behaviour.

How screeners work

Screeners continuously monitor live market data during trading hours. Each screener is built on a fixed set of rules. When a stock satisfies those rules, it appears in the screener list. If the conditions are no longer met, the stock is automatically removed.

This means screener results are dynamic. The list can change frequently as prices move, volumes increase or decrease, and indicators update.

What screeners help you do

Screeners are designed to reduce noise and save time. They help you focus only on stocks that show specific market behaviour instead of tracking the entire market.

Using screeners, you can:

  • Spot stocks showing strong or unusual price movement
  • Identify sudden increases or drops in trading activity
  • Notice early technical signals without manual calculations
  • Narrow down the market to a manageable shortlist

How to read screener results

A screener result is not a recommendation. It is simply a list of stocks that currently meet certain conditions.

Once a stock appears in a screener, you should:

  • Open the stock chart to understand the price structure
  • Check technical signals and trends
  • Review fundamentals or news if relevant
  • Apply your own risk management before taking any decision

Why screener results keep changing

It is normal for stocks to appear and disappear from screeners.

This happens because screeners respond to live market data. Even small price or volume changes can cause a stock to stop meeting the screener’s conditions. This behaviour indicates that the screener is working correctly and reflecting real-time conditions.

What if...

SituationSolution
No stocks appear in a screenerThis means no stocks currently meet the screener’s conditions. Try checking again during active market hours.
Stocks keep appearing and disappearingScreener results update in real time. Changes indicate shifting prices, volume, or indicators.
A stock disappears after you open itThe stock no longer meets the screener rules. This is expected behaviour in fast-moving markets.
Unsure what to do after finding a stockUse the screener as a starting point. Always analyse the stock further before making any decision.
Note: Screeners only highlight stocks that meet certain conditions at a given moment. They do not predict future performance and should always be combined with proper analysis and risk management.
