How to Use AI-Powered Rankings

Combine with volume surge (Factor 2) - confirms momentum
Check multiple times daily - rankings update every minute
For Swing Traders
Focus on scores 80+ with strong momentum (Factor 1) and relative strength (Factor 3)
Less concerned with volatility - multi-day holds smooth out intraday noise
Check once daily (morning) - identify multi-day momentum leaders
Hold 3-7 days - let trends develop
Understanding Score Changes
Score rising quickly: Momentum building, consider entry
Score dropping: Momentum fading, consider exit or avoid
Score stable at high level: Sustained strength, good for swing trades
Score stable at low level: Weakness persisting, stay away
