About DayTrader Scout

DayTrader Scout is an automated stock scanning service that identifies day-trading candidates every morning using quantitative analysis — no human bias, no hype, just data.

Our Methodology

Every weekday at 9:25 AM ET, our scanner analyzes 366+ liquid, Robinhood-tradeable stocks across tech, finance, health, energy, consumer, and ETF sectors. Each stock is scored using multiple factors:

📊 Momentum

5-day price momentum vs. prior 5 days. Stocks with positive recent trends score higher.

📈 Volume Surge

Today's volume vs. 30-day average. Above-average volume confirms institutional interest.

⚡ ATR-Based Upside

Average True Range estimates realistic daily swing room. We target a 2-7% trading range rather than presenting it as a guaranteed forecast.

🛡️ RSI Filter

14-period RSI keeps us away from overbought (>75) and oversold (<30) extremes.

📉 Beta Filter

Maximum beta of 2.0 filters out excessively volatile stocks that carry too much risk.

🔔 Exit Signals

Sell alerts fire when price hits +3% target, -1.5% stop loss, RSI >72, or price drops below 9 EMA.

Who Is This For?

DayTrader Scout is built for active retail traders who want a systematic, data-driven starting point for their daily watchlist. It's not a get-rich-quick scheme — it's a tool to help you find setups faster.

You still make your own trading decisions using your own broker (Robinhood, Schwab, TD Ameritrade, etc.). We surface the candidates, you pull the trigger.
