What do I do after the scans?

This is the most important step — where the shortlist turns into focused conviction. 🎯

After running the EPS, Relative Strength, and IPO scans (see previous thread), I’m usually left with around 250 names in a healthy market.

I narrow it down further by focusing on:
🧩 Market Cap between ₹500 Cr and ₹20,000 Cr
📌 But I give maximum weight to ₹500 – ₹10,000 Cr stocks — the sweet spot for explosive moves.

This usually trims the list down to 120–140 names.

My next filter is chart-based:

Is the stock buyable right now?
What do I mean by buyable?
I look for setups like:
✅ Long base breakouts
✅ Flags / Pennants
✅ Post-Earnings Drift (explained beautifully in Trade Like a Stock Market Wizard)

If the chart shows one of these, I move it to my Focused List.
This alone takes me down to <10–12 names.

Then comes something I call Trigger Hunting — optional for short-term traders, but critical for trend followers like me.

Here’s what I do:

I check how many of these 10–12 names belong to the same industry group.
If I find 3–4 names from one sector, I know something’s brewing there.
That group goes to the top of my focus.

for example - Agrochemicals, Pharma & Healthcare, Auto Ancillaries, Specialty Chemicals, etc

To compare names within the group:
🔹 I visit their websites
🔹 Glance through recent investor presentations
🔹 Do a quick numbers scan on @screener_in

This gives me 4–6 high-priority, actionable setups for the next trading day.
Tight, focused, high-conviction list.

Having done this process daily for 2–3 years, it now only takes me a few hours.

But if you're new — take your time.
Over weeks, you’ll develop a rhythm.
