Four screening stages, from 1,200 stocks to a few candidates
Every stock must pass every stage. A high score elsewhere cannot override a failed gate. The final reward-to-risk ratio must reach 3:1.
Select a stage
Select an indicator to see its definition, formula, scoring scale and source.
Each score is 0–100. Gates are independent of ranking weights.
A stock through the screening process
Eight invented companies with simulated metrics. Select one and run the screening.

Trade setup
Ranking and position size
Only companies passing all four gates qualify. At most 1% of the portfolio is risked per trade.
Weights are normalized to 100%. Position size = portfolio × risk budget ÷ (entry − stop). Green: 1%; yellow: 0.5%; red: 0%.
Weights change ranking only; the gates determine eligibility.
| # | Company | Fundamentals | Technicals | Risk | CRV | Total | Shares (€10,000 portfolio) |
|---|
Model limitations
Passing all gates does not guarantee a price rise.
Research-based weights require historical validation without survivorship bias before real use.
Four signals cannot replace economic analysis; they help filter adverse markets.
A 3:1 ratio does not establish the actual probability of reaching the target.
