Feature Request: Add Advanced Scan Options and Pre-built Screeners (CANSLIM, VCP, Chart Patterns

Product Feedback 🗣️
1

I am a regular user of the ScanX platform and truly appreciate the clean interface and real-time scanning capabilities you offer. However, I would like to suggest some important feature enhancements that could significantly improve the platform’s value for active traders and investors.

:pushpin: Feature Request:

  1. Advanced Scanning Options (Like MarketSmith India):
    Please add more advanced fundamental and technical filters to the scanning tool, such as:

Sales and EPS growth (quarterly and annual)
ROE, ROCE, and Profit Margins
Institutional Holding % change
Relative Strength (RS) rating
Price above/below moving averages (50/150/200 DMA)
Volatility-based filters

  1. Pre-built Screeners (One-Click Access):
    It would be incredibly helpful to include a few popular, ready-to-use screening templates, such as:
  • CANSLIM Screener (based on William O’Neil’s methodology)
  • VCP Screener (based on Mark Minervini’s Volatility Contraction Pattern)
  • Breakout/Chart Pattern Screeners – for Cup-with-Handle, Flat Base, Triangle Breakouts, etc.

  1. Technical Pattern Recognition:
    Adding AI-based or algorithmic pattern recognition for common bullish/bearish chart patterns would help users spot opportunities more efficiently.

  2. Save Custom Scans:
    Allow users to save custom scans and receive alerts based on them—either through email or in-app notifications.

:white_check_mark: Benefits for Users:

  • Saves time for retail and professional traders.
  • Encourages systematic investing strategies.
  • Bridges the gap between ScanX and more premium platforms like MarketSmith India, at a competitive price point.

Thank you for your continued effort to improve the platform. I hope these suggestions will be considered in a future release.

Hello @Himangshu,

Volatility-based filters were on your list of advanced scan options.

IV Movers is now live on Options Trader Web. It is a full IV screener listing all F&O stocks, sortable by highest or lowest IV, IVP and IVR, with a lookback period you pick from 1 Week to 1 Year.

To be clear, this sits on Options Trader Web rather than inside ScanX, so it covers F&O stocks on volatility criteria rather than the broader equity screening you were describing. The pre-built screener request is separate and still noted.

Insights tab at options-trader.dhan.co.

Would sorting by IVR give you a usable shortlist on its own, or do you need it combined with price and volume filters?
