3-gate low-float filter

Most low-float setups fail.
The ones that go big share the same criteria.

(24-second demo)

Watching weak names all day burns attention, patience, and judgment.

Nice Stock Scans filters for structure, participation, and momentum using a strict 3 gate requirement.

Rapid DD then checks what can quietly break the setup underneath the chart.

Here’s how it works →

Step 1 of 2

3-Gate Momentum Filter

The scanner qualifies setups using 3 gates.

01 Structure
Is it uptrending?
multi-timeframe trend alignment
02 Participation
Is there real demand behind the move?
real participation and float turnover
03 Ignition
Is momentum present right now?
visible follow-through

If any one of the criteria breaks, the stock is removed from scan view.

No exceptions.

That’s the protection.

Who is this for?

For traders who are tired of wasting time on names that were never serious to begin with.

For traders who want:

  • faster filtering
  • float turnover visibility
  • real-time stats
  • fewer weak setups reaching the watchlist
  • less screen fatigue

This is not:

  • a chat room
  • a signal service
  • a winner-only highlight reel

This is about efficiency, not dependency.

FAQ

Do I need a Trade Ideas subscription?

Yes, if you want to run the scanner inside Trade Ideas. The framework, examples, and review materials can be used without one.

Is this a signal service?

No. This is a filtering workflow and review process, not a chat room or alert service.

Why not alert stocks in real time?

Because the goal is independence. NSS is built to help traders filter and think for themselves, not wait on chatroom alerts.

Why only 221 qualified setups?

Because the goal was to confirm the pattern, not build a bigger spreadsheet. Stocks that meet the criteria show up. Most fail. Some go big. Once that behavior was clear, the point was to use the framework.

Why should I trust this?

Because the framework is built around what real runners looked like before the move. The goal is to show what a real strike looks like. Trend, participation, and momentum can all be there. Judgment still matters.

Do setups get removed?

Yes. If a setup fails any one of the 3 gates, it is removed from the scan view. That is the protection.

Why show both stronger examples and weaker ones?

Because the value is in seeing the pattern honestly. The framework is more credible when stronger outcomes, weaker follow-through, and failed continuation are all visible.

What if nothing is qualifying?

If nothing is aligning, forcing trades later is usually not the answer. Use the time for DD, or close up shop and come back tomorrow.

What if I’m not ready for Trade Ideas yet?

That is completely fine. You can still study the workflow, examples, and review materials first. If paying for a scanner makes you feel obligated to force trades, it may be better to start simple and build selectivity first.

Built for traders who want cleaner filtering, sharper review, and more selective decisions.
