Intraday (1 minute, 5 minute...) screener?

I'm looking for a live data, 1,5,15 etc minute screener. UK based.
I found Tradingview worked, but unreliably.
Tradingview seems to have changed.
If you start from say https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/NASDAQ-AAPL/
you can click on Supercharts.
From there, it WAS possible to go to a screener which could show intraday periods, down to 1 minute.
They appear to have stopped that now.

The new format screener is ok, though I found that with all fiters completely cleared, it only returned THREE names.
And only daily, free.
I had a paid account which was unreliable and bug-ridden


Does anyone know a paid screener which works well?
Esignal looks good, but $400 a month is too high for me.
There's Finviz elite at $24.95, which isn't very detailed on what you get
Seeking Alpha doesn't appear to include an intraday screener.


Am I missing anything?

I have just found Sharescope, while looking for Level 2 data.
They have a screener and obviously live data, so Sharepad/Sharescope may be an option.

I used to pay for Sharescope HLOC data on their lowest subscription until 3 years ago. The securities were easy to assemble, filter and sort into lists, and these large datasets were easy to download and update each evening. However, I noticed the closing data was more noisy than other sources, and that made differences to strategy profits/losses, because it tended to take out stops out more easily. I'm not sure exactly why the difference. another problem is that you had to pay extra for dividend adjusted prices. As that time it included ETFs, unit trusts, discontinued securities, but not cryptos. Presumably they are included now.

I'm a bit alarmed at what you say about Tradingview because I've just subscribed to it, in the hope the EOD data would be more stable, and consistent with most other sources. However, I think you can only download each single security at a time? If so it's more limited. Presumably closing prices will be based at 12 midnight BST if you have registered from the UK?

you can have access to live data on yahoo finance via software like R, Python - I use it for futures and it works very well. Free of charge
also, you can access equities, index and FX live prices in excel free of charge (included in excel itself, no need for additional macros or software - Go to "data" and click on the Stocks icon).
 
@DuMotier Thanks I'll look again at Yahoo. I though they only had daily intervals. I can do standard Python, never seen R. A search returns a number of useful looking articles. Did you have a fave?

Same with Excel - I thought that was only daily. It is just a question of refreshing the sheet?
Also I haven't found a way to specify a time for the data. Can I load the data into a sheet as the day progresses so I can calculate and flag up if something has jumped, or reversed, say?

I have gone into a couple of articles on using Excel for stocks, but have only see them describing a once-per-day dataset.

@cassiopeia I didn't use it for what you're doing. I was overwhelmed by its problems.
If you download their program and run it on your pc and look at the data with Firefox, the numbers on the screen dissolve into unreadability. TV were absolutely useless at helping. They didn't know theor product at all. I would show them a screenshot of rubbish data, and aweek later, get a reply saying it's ok for them! Also a host of patheric morons chimed in from the internet to say it must be my fault, or I must be being paid to berate TV, ad nauseam.
So I gave up.
You have to NOT download their app, or remove it if you have, or that's what gets opened all the time. Quite what the interaction with Firefox is I don't know, I assume TV picks a browser to display the HTML. If you use the web service only, the screens read ok, but as I say I found it doesn't always work properly. Why , ever, only 3 names when no filters are set??!!
There were also zero instructions, so you had to watch hours of third part youtubes and hope thet what you wanted was mentioned somewhere. Not at all what I expected for (£650 pa?? the 8 screen one) software.
