Trending Stocks Lists

[safvan]

Hi guys

I am new to this forum. Wanted to ask a question..

Is there a reliable website or service that offers the list of in trend stocks (going up or down) like a scanner that you would recommend or use?

Also I am looking for reliable realtime charting software...what options are there (any free ones with real time data)

Thank you and hope to contribute and learn from all of you out here!

All stocks are going either up or down!

You need to look a bit deeper and think about a stocks relative strength compared to it's index. In order to be successful you need to look at the whole market not just individual stocks. Which sectors are outperforming or underperforming the whole market? Which are then the strongest stocks within the strongest sectors?

Try ProRealtime for software. It is excellent and is free of EOD data with optional subscription for real time. It also has trend detection scanners. Don't just jump in though.. remember individual stocks show their true colours when the market as a whole is retracing/consolidating

Yahoo presents adequate data:

Look on the left column for stocks which have gained/lost, or are being traded in high volume.
