ChartWatch ASX Scans Criteria

  • Short term uptrend (ST trend ribbon is light green)

  • Long term uptrend or long term trend is transitioning from down to up (LT trend ribbon is dark green, or LT trend ribbon is amber and contracting)

Important considerations when using the ChartWatch ASX Scan Lists:
1. The future is unknown. Anything can happen to change the trends in the lists above. A stock in a perfect uptrend or downtrend may not remain that way by the close of trading today. 2. These lists are not exhaustive, they are curated by Carl. You will find that certain stocks might not appear in a particular list on consecutive days but might reappear when Carl feels it deserves to return to the list. 3. This is not a recommendation service, merely an aid to help you better understand the workings of Carl’s technical analysis model in a practical way. Carl will not alert you to stocks that have dropped off a list because their trend has changed – it is up to you to apply the criteria to determine why a particular stock might not still be included. 4. This is general, educational information only – always do your own research.
