DayTradeRadar is a fast, intuitive stock scanner designed for day traders. It scans markets in real-time to identify high-potential stocks for intraday trading, delivering clear, actionable advice on which stocks are "hot" for trades based on momentum, volume, and key technical signals.
A robust, modular stock scanner and backtesting platform for day trading and swing trading. It fetches live data (Yahoo Finance, Alpaca, Polygon), applies technical and fundamental filters, detects key patterns (like engulfing candles), and outputs actionable stock picks with detailed analytics.
