Frequently Asked Questions

StockIQ’s scores and signals are worked out by fixed rules from prices, volume and published company figures, and every report shows the points behind its score. They are automated model outputs and general information, not personal financial advice. A high score is not a forecast: past screener results have not shown a reliable edge over the market, and past results do not guarantee future performance.

Every score shows its working: a single-stock report lists each point added or taken off, and the screeners publish how their trend score is built. A screener ranks a whole index in one run, up to about 1,800 stocks, with more than 700 small programs working side by side. And every account has a practice portfolio with $100,000 of fake money, and an AI chat that explains what the data shows without telling you what to buy or sell.

Enter a ticker on the analysis page. The report works out RSI, MACD, the 20-, 50- and 200-day moving averages, volume against its average and the 52-week range, draws them on a chart with support and resistance, and says in plain English what each one shows. The trading signals add Bollinger bands. No manual calculation is needed.

A trading signal here is a short-term technical reading for a stock: positive, negative or mixed, worked out from RSI, MACD and Bollinger bands, with its reasons listed, a confidence level, and the high and low of the last 20 sessions for reference. Nobody has shown that these readings predict what a price does next. They are general information, not instructions to trade.

Yes. There are screeners for the ASX 50, 100, 200 and 300, and a single report works for any ASX share (use its code with .AX, for example BHP.AX), with prices shown in Australian dollars. Canada’s TSX 60, the UK FTSE 100, Germany’s DAX 40, France’s CAC 40, the Netherlands’ AEX, Italy’s FTSE MIB, Spain’s IBEX 35, Switzerland’s SMI, Japan’s Nikkei 225, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng, Singapore’s STI, India’s Sensex, South Korea’s KOSPI 200, China’s CSI 300, Taiwan’s Taiwan 50, Sweden’s OMX Stockholm 30, the Euro Stoxx 50, New Zealand’s NZX 50, Brazil’s Bovespa and Mexico’s IPC have screeners too.

Prices and market data come from third-party providers (Yahoo Finance and Finnhub) and are refreshed regularly during market hours. Data may be delayed or contain errors, so always check important figures with your broker or the exchange.

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.

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.

Yes. The crypto screener ranks 540 coins by a technical score and shows how long each has been in its top 10 and what its price has done since. You can also run a report on a single coin, with a chart and an explained score.

Enterprise terminals are built for professional trading desks and priced for them, and they hold far more data and tools than StockIQ does. StockIQ is a small tool for individual investors, from $4.99 a month: explained scores, index screeners, an AI chat and a practice portfolio, with nothing to learn before you start. It is not a substitute for a professional terminal, or for advice.

StockIQ does a few things and shows how it does them: every score comes with its working, how the screeners’ trend score is built is published, and you can try what you see with practice money first. It does not offer analyst research, in-depth financial statements or real-time data: prices come from Yahoo Finance and Finnhub and can be delayed.

The screener score is a trend score with four parts: how far the share stands above its 52-week low (up to +2), its rise over the past year leaving out the latest month (up to ±1.5), whether the price is above its 200-day average (±0.5) and whether its 50-day average is above its 200-day (±0.5); 0.5 comes off when the RSI is over 80. A positive total is multiplied by 0.6, so that the labels from Strongly positive to Strongly negative span about the same range as before. It uses prices only, no company figures. It replaced a 12-factor score in October 2026: tested on about 1,750 shares in nine markets over four years, the old score’s top 10 did worse than its own list in 17 of 18 periods, the trend score’s better in 13 of 18, with bigger swings. Those are past results and promise nothing. A single-stock report uses a different 0–100 score that does include company figures, and lists every point. See the About page for both.

StockIQ costs $4.99, $14.99 or $49.99 a month, by how many analyses and screeners you run a day, after a free 3-day trial. That is far less than a professional terminal, and it does far less: the answers above say what it does and does not do.

StockIQ has three monthly plans: Starter ($4.99/month, 15 analyses per day), Pro ($14.99/month, 50 analyses per day), and Elite ($49.99/month, unlimited analyses), with prices in US dollars. Every plan has the same reports, screeners and signals and includes the AI autopilot (Beta) for your practice portfolio. The plans differ only in how many analyses you can run a day.

The practice portfolio is on your dashboard and is free for every account: you start with $100,000 of fake money, buy and sell any stock, ETF or coin by hand, and see how each holding has done since you bought it. The AI autopilot is in beta (new, and still being tested and changed) and is included in every paid plan (Starter, Pro and Elite) and in the free 3-day trial. It runs a practice portfolio for you: at times you choose it makes practice buys and sells from the latest results of the screeners you tick, inside a budget and limits you set, and it shows what it did, why, and what it will do next. As a trial, a fifth of its budget is held in the three strongest of 14 sector and theme funds (such as technology, energy or gold), changed once a month and compared with an S&P 500 fund; every trading day the AI model also reads the market’s headlines and makes calls on those funds, which are scored a week later but not acted on. Before it buys, it is also told the week’s big scheduled announcements for those markets (central-bank interest-rate decisions, inflation and jobs figures) and the market’s latest headlines, and it records how close each buy was to one, so that its record shows whether that matters. It keeps a record of its own results and tries changes to its own rules. Both use fake money only: no real trade is ever placed, past screener results have not shown a reliable edge, and nothing they show is financial advice.

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.

Yes. Every plan, and the free trial, gets the same reports, screeners and signals. The only difference between plans is the number of analyses per day. The AI autopilot (Beta) comes with every paid plan, and with the free trial for its 3 days.

Yes. New users get 15 free analyses over a 3-day trial (5 a day), with the same reports, screeners and trading signals as the paid plans. No credit card is needed to start. The practice portfolio is free with every account; the AI autopilot (Beta) is in the free trial and every paid plan.

Free sites such as Yahoo Finance show you the figures. StockIQ turns them into a score and shows how it got there, ranks a whole index in one run, keeps your reports, and gives you practice money to try your ideas with. Whether that is worth paying for is yours to judge: the 3-day trial is free.
