How to Use the Breakout Scanner — Step by Step

So you've signed up. Now what? Here's the exact workflow that our power users follow to find, validate, and act on breakout signals every day.

Step 1: Start with the Dashboard

After login, you'll land on the dashboard. The first tab — Breakouts — shows every stock that closed above its multi-year resistance today, with key metrics in one line:

• Symbol + company name
• Score (0–10) — our proprietary momentum + volume + fundamental composite
• Price + today's % change
• Entry / Stop Loss / Target pre-computed using our breakout candle logic
• Volume Surge indicator (e.g., "3.2× avg")
• Fundamental Rating (Strong / Moderate / Weak)

💡 Tip: Sort by Score (highest first). Anything 7.5+ deserves a deeper look.

Step 2: Click Any Row → Full Chart Modal

Clicking a row opens the Stock Detail Modal — this is where the magic happens:

• TradingView-style chart with 20+ years of history, switchable timeframes (1D, 1W, 1M).
• EMA overlays, volume profile, and live "today's candle" appended in real-time.
• AI Analyze Chart button (right side) — runs Gemini 3 Flash to generate:
  • Short / Medium / Long-term bias
  • Key support & resistance levels (which you can pin to the chart)
  • Momentum read (RSI, MACD)
  • Volume analysis & breakout strength rating

Step 3: Validate with AI Fundamentals

Don't trade just on charts. Inside the modal, switch to the Fundamentals tab:

• Revenue growth (3yr CAGR)
• Profit growth + margin trend
• ROE, ROCE, Debt/Equity
• AI-generated bullish points + bearish points + verdict

A "Weak" fundamental rating on a chart breakout = higher failure rate. Skip it.

Step 4: Star to Watchlist + Set Alerts

Once you've decided to trade a setup:

1. Click the ⭐ Star icon to add to your watchlist.
2. Open the ✉️ Bell icon in the top bar and toggle Email Alerts ON.
3. Choose alert conditions: Target hit / SL hit / Daily summary.

You'll get inbox notifications the moment your level triggers — no need to camp on the chart all day.

Step 5: Use the Risk Calculator

Before placing the order, hit the Risk Calculator:

• Pre-filled with the AI-generated Entry / SL / Target
• Enter your capital + risk % (start with 1%)
• It tells you exactly how many shares to buy, total investment needed, and expected R:R

💡 Pro tip: Never deviate from this quantity. Round numbers are how accounts get blown up.

Step 6: Track in the Watchlist Tab

Once entered:

• Watchlist tab shows your starred stocks with live LTP, % from entry, % to target, % from SL.
• Color-coded: green when above entry, red when below SL zone.
• "Days Held" counter for each position.

Step 7: Review Track Record + Performance

Every closed signal — won or lost — feeds into our public Track Record dashboard:

• Win Rate, Profit Factor, Avg P&L, Expectancy
• Comparison vs NIFTY 50 over 30D / 3M / 6M / 1Y
• Cumulative equity curve

This builds your edge over time — you see which setups work, which timeframes work best, and adjust accordingly.

Common First-Week Mistakes

1. Trading every signal — pick 2-3 highest score + Strong fundamental setups only.
2. Skipping the Risk Calculator — leads to over-sized positions.
3. Not using alerts — missing exits is the #1 P&L killer for retail.
4. Ignoring the Approaching tab — these are stocks 2-5% away from breakout, perfect for advance positioning.
5. Closing winners too early — once the trade hits +5%, let the trail stop do the work.
