Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are AI-powered stock analysis tools?
▼
AI-powered stock analysis tools like StockIQ achieve 75-85% accuracy by processing multiple data sources simultaneously. Our platform combines real-time market data, technical indicators, sentiment analysis, and fundamental metrics to provide comprehensive insights that often outperform traditional analysis methods.
What makes StockIQ different from other stock screeners?
▼
StockIQ uses 150+ parallel AWS Lambda workers to analyze 1500+ stocks simultaneously, combining Yahoo Finance and Finnhub data sources for comprehensive 12-section reports per stock. While traditional screeners show basic metrics, we provide institutional-grade analysis with AI-powered recommendations in real-time.
How do I analyze stocks with technical indicators?
▼
Our platform automatically calculates 15+ technical indicators including RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, and moving averages. Each stock analysis includes momentum signals, support/resistance levels, and entry/exit points with confidence ratings. No manual calculation required.
What are trading signals and how reliable are they?
▼
Trading signals are AI-generated BUY/SELL/HOLD recommendations based on technical analysis, market sentiment, and price patterns. Our signals include confidence levels (HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW) and specific entry/exit prices. Historical accuracy ranges from 70-80% depending on market conditions.
Can I analyze ASX (Australian) stocks?
▼
Yes! StockIQ supports comprehensive analysis of ASX stocks including ASX 20, 50, 100, 200, and 300 indices. Our ASX screener provides the same detailed analysis as US stocks, including technical indicators, price targets, and risk assessments.
How often is the stock data updated?
▼
Stock data is updated in real-time during market hours. Our platform pulls live prices, volume, and market data every few seconds to ensure analysis reflects current market conditions. After-hours data is updated within 15 minutes of market close.
What is the difference between fundamental and technical analysis?
▼
Fundamental analysis examines company financials (revenue, earnings, debt) to determine intrinsic value, while technical analysis studies price charts and patterns to predict future movements. StockIQ combines both approaches for comprehensive stock evaluation.
How do I interpret RSI and MACD indicators?
▼
RSI (Relative Strength Index) measures momentum: above 70 suggests overbought conditions, below 30 indicates oversold. MACD shows trend changes when the signal line crosses above/below the MACD line. Our platform provides plain-English interpretations of all indicators.
Is cryptocurrency analysis available?
▼
Yes! Our crypto screener analyzes 548+ cryptocurrencies with technical indicators, price predictions, and entry timing analysis. We provide BTC, ETH, and altcoin analysis with the same depth as stock analysis, including support/resistance levels and momentum signals.
How does StockIQ compare to enterprise platforms?
▼
Enterprise platforms ($10,000-$25,000/year) are designed for institutional traders and require extensive training. StockIQ (starting at $4.99/month) provides institutional-grade analysis with 1000+ parallel AWS Lambda workers, but with an intuitive interface built for individual investors. We focus on the essential analytical tools everyone needs, without the complexity or enterprise pricing of institutional platforms.
What's the difference between StockIQ and premium subscription services?
▼
Many premium services ($200-$500/year) use delayed data or provide limited analysis depth. StockIQ offers real-time data with parallel processing of 2000+ stocks simultaneously. Our transparent weighted scoring system (12 factors including momentum, RSI, MACD, volume) provides complete visibility into how stocks are rated, while many services use opaque methodologies. We deliver deeper technical analysis with full transparency.
What makes StockIQ's scoring methodology better?
▼
Unlike black-box algorithms used by expensive platforms, StockIQ provides complete transparency. Our weighted scoring uses: Short Momentum (18%), RSI (20%), MACD (20%), Volume (10%), Medium Momentum (8%), Long Momentum (6%), Financial Health (6%), Bollinger Bands (5%), Sentiment (3%), Market Conditions (3%), Risk (2%), and MA Trend (1%). You see exactly why each stock scores the way it does - no hidden formulas or proprietary secrets.
How does StockIQ pricing compare to other services?
▼
StockIQ bridges the gap between free basic screeners and expensive enterprise platforms. While enterprise solutions cost $10,000-$25,000/year and premium services range from $200-$500/year, StockIQ starts at just $4.99/month with full institutional-grade features. You get professional analysis tools, real-time data, and transparent methodology at accessible pricing for everyone.
What are StockIQ's pricing plans and subscription options?
▼
StockIQ offers flexible monthly subscriptions with different usage tiers: Basic (50 analyses), Professional (200 analyses), and Elite (unlimited analyses). All plans provide complete 12-section institutional-grade reports with real-time data, technical indicators, and AI recommendations - no features are restricted by plan level.
Can I cancel my subscription anytime? What happens to my access?
▼
Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time with no penalties or fees. When you cancel, you'll continue to have full access to all StockIQ features until the end of your current billing month. Your subscription will simply not renew for the following month, giving you complete flexibility and peace of mind.
Do all plans get the same analysis quality?
▼
Yes! Every StockIQ plan - from Free Trial to Elite - receives the exact same 42-section institutional-grade reports with full technical indicators, AI recommendations, and real-time data. The only difference is the number of analyses per day. We don't restrict features or analysis depth based on your plan - everyone gets professional-quality insights.
Is there a free trial available?
▼
Yes! New users get a 7-day free trial with 5 analyses per day and full access to all StockIQ features including complete 42-section reports, screeners, and AI-powered trading signals. No credit card required to start your trial - experience institutional-grade analysis risk-free.
Why should I choose StockIQ over free stock screeners?
▼
Free screeners (Yahoo Finance, Google Finance, Robinhood) show basic metrics but lack depth. StockIQ provides 42-section comprehensive reports with AI-powered recommendations, transparent weighted scoring across 12 factors, multi-timeframe momentum analysis (5d to 1yr), and parallel processing of 2000+ stocks. It's the difference between seeing a stock's price and understanding why it's moving and where it's headed.
