# LuxAlgo - Screener (S&O) The LuxAlgo Screener (S&O) monitors up to 10 tickers, each on its own timeframe. Every row reports live Signals & Overlays™ data: the most recent signal, exits count, and Smart Trail, Reversal Zones, Trend Catcher, Trend Tracer, and Neo Cloud status. Trend Strength, Lux Volatility, Squeeze Index, and Volume Sentiment complete the picture under a five-grade confluence Rating. Rows filter on per-element rules and sort ascending or descending. - Indicator in the LuxAlgo Library, by LuxAlgo, published Feb 20, 2024. - Access: included with ultra, premium, ultimate. - Concepts: [Confluence & Scoring Systems](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/concept/confluence-and-scoring-systems/) (primary), [Trailing Method Taxonomy](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/concept/trailing-method-taxonomy/), [Moving Average Crossovers](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/concept/moving-average-crossovers/) - Open Vela: https://vela.luxalgo.com/chart - Page: https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/luxalgo-screener-s-o/ The **LuxAlgo® - Screener (S&O)** puts the [Signals & Overlays™](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/luxalgo-signals-overlays/) toolkit's readings for an entire watchlist into one table: up to 10 tickers, each on its own timeframe, refreshed on your chart without switching symbols. It is built for traders who already run the toolkit and want to find which market is actually presenting a setup right now, rather than flipping through charts. Access rides along with the toolkit itself: having Signals & Overlays™ automatically grants the S&O screener. ## What's Inside the Screener (S&O)? - **Market columns**: Price, Volume, %Change, and Change give each row its market context before any toolkit data is read. - **Signal**: the most recent Confirmation or Contrarian signal returned on the ticker, backed by an Exits column counting exit signals since that signal fired, a quick read on how mature the move already is. - **Overlay status columns**: current Smart Trail, Reversal Zones, Trend Catcher, Trend Tracer, and Neo Cloud states reproduce the toolkit's overlay stack per ticker, so cross-ticker confluence is visible at a glance. - **Dashboard metrics**: current Trend Strength, Lux Volatility, Squeeze Index, and Volume Sentiment values mirror the toolkit dashboard for every row. - **Rating**: a per-ticker [confluence score](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/concept/confluence-and-scoring-systems/) computed from the percentage of bullish indications across the enabled elements: ▲ Strong Bullish above 80%, △ Bullish at 60–80%, ― Neutral at 40–60%, ▽ Bearish at 20–40%, ▼ Strong Bearish under 20%. - **Filtering**: every element carries its own filter dropdown; list-based elements filter to a precise option while value-based elements use Above/Below operators (Lux Volatility excepted), and conditions on multiple elements combine so only tickers matching all rules stay visible. - **Sorting**: rows order ascending or descending by Rating, Trend Strength, Lux Volatility, Squeeze Index, Volume Sentiment, or Exits, with None preserving the ticker-settings order. - **Placement**: the screener renders in its own pane by default with six position options (Top/Bottom Center, Right, Left) and can be dragged directly onto the price chart for a compact layout. ## How to Trade with the Screener (S&O)? - **Scan for confluence first**: sort by Rating descending and the tickers where most enabled S&O elements agree float to the top, the shortlist for a closer chart look. - **Filter down to your setup**: keep only rows rated △ Bullish or ▲ Strong Bullish, or stack rules such as Trend Strength Above 50 with a bullish Smart Trail, so the table only ever shows candidates matching your plan. - **Use Exits as a freshness check**: a signal with zero exits since firing is early; several accumulated exits mark a move that has already paid out repeatedly. - **Run multi-timeframe confirmation**: the same ticker can occupy several rows on different timeframes, turning the screener into an alignment matrix for one instrument. - **Execute on the chart, not the table**: once a row qualifies, open that symbol with the full toolkit applied. The screener finds the candidate, and if the rule set proves durable it can graduate to the [S&O Backtester](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/luxalgo-backtester-s-o/) for statistical validation. ## Key Settings & Modes - **Tickers**: 10 slots with per-ticker timeframe overrides; defaults span crypto (BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT, SOLUSDT, ADAUSDT), indices and stocks (SPX, AAPL, TSLA, NVDA), and forex (EURUSD, GBPUSD). Duplicate ticker/timeframe pairs are dropped. - **Screener Elements**: enable/disable toggles, color controls, and the per-element filter dropdowns. - **Signal settings group**: signal sensitivity and the choice between Confirmation and Contrarian algorithms for the Signal column. - **Overlays settings group**: a 1–5 setting per overlay, with higher values reading longer-term trends. - **Location**: pane position selection, plus drag-and-drop onto the chart. - **Sorting**: sorted element and ascending/descending order. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### How do I get access to the Screener (S&O)? The screener is a premium tool tied to a LuxAlgo subscription plan. It is not part of the free library flow and does not load into Quant from this page. Any plan that includes Signals & Overlays™ automatically grants the S&O screener, so there is nothing separate to purchase. ### How is the Rating column calculated? The Rating measures the percentage of bullish indications among the screener elements you have enabled for that ticker, then maps it to five grades from ▲ Strong Bullish (above 80% bullish) to ▼ Strong Bearish (below 20%). Because it only counts enabled elements, trimming the table to the features you trust makes the Rating reflect your own confluence definition. ### Can it watch one ticker across several timeframes? Yes. Each of the 10 slots takes any ticker plus its own timeframe, so the same symbol can appear on, say, 15-minute, 1-hour, and 4-hour rows simultaneously. Only exact duplicates (same ticker and same timeframe) are suppressed. ### How is it different from the Screener (PAC)? Both share the same 10-ticker engine, Rating scale, filtering, and sorting. The difference is the feature set screened. This screener reports Signals & Overlays™ signals, overlay states, and dashboard metrics, while the [PAC screener](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/luxalgo-screener-pac/) reports market structure, order blocks, imbalances, and other price action data from its own toolkit. ### Why can results occasionally differ or stall? Screening ten symbols is computation-intensive, so rare calculation timeouts can occur. Changing any setting or re-adding the screener forces a recalculation. Row data can also look inconsistent across markets because crypto trades 24/7 while stocks and forex keep exchange hours, which affects when each ticker's most recent bar updates. ## Related indicators - [Signals & Overlays](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/luxalgo-signals-overlays/) (Confluence & Scoring Systems): markdown at https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/luxalgo-signals-overlays.md - [Oscillator Matrix](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/luxalgo-oscillator-matrix/) (Confluence & Scoring Systems): markdown at https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/luxalgo-oscillator-matrix.md - [Signal Forge](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/signal-forge/) (Confluence & Scoring Systems): markdown at https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/signal-forge.md - [Market Sentiment Technicals](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/market-sentiment-technicals/) (Confluence & Scoring Systems): markdown at https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/market-sentiment-technicals.md - [Omni-Flow Consensus](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/omni-flow-consensus/) (Confluence & Scoring Systems): markdown at https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/omni-flow-consensus.md - [Fibonacci Trailing Stop](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/fibonacci-trailing-stop/) (Trailing Method Taxonomy): markdown at https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/fibonacci-trailing-stop.md - [Neighboring Trailing Stop](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/neighboring-trailing-stop/) (Trailing Method Taxonomy): markdown at https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/neighboring-trailing-stop.md - [Signal Moving Average](https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/signal-moving-average/) (Moving Average Crossovers): markdown at https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/signal-moving-average.md --- Source: https://www.luxalgo.com/library/indicator/luxalgo-screener-s-o/ (LuxAlgo Library).
