thinkorswim® Stock Hacker: Scanning for Aggressive Short-Term Trades | Trading a Smaller Account

Описание: Trading a Smaller Account | Cameron May | 11-28-25
Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options. https://bit.ly/2v9tH6D

In this video, Schwab Education Senior Manager Cameron May will explore how a more aggressive stock trader might identify candidates for short-term, mechanical trading in fast-moving markets. Using the thinkorswim® desktop paperMoney platform, we break down several key characteristics that traders often consider when focusing on volatile stocks, such as liquidity, price movement, intraday volatility, and recognizable chart behaviors using technical indicators. We’ll discuss why these factors may support a faster trading approach, while also highlighting the risks that naturally come with volatility, leverage, and rapid decision-making.

After establishing an example checklist of priorities, we’ll switch over to the Stock Hacker scan tool and build a custom scan designed to locate stocks that meet those criteria. Then, using real-time examples, we’ll walk through planning and placing a short-term stock trade driven by mechanical signals rather than emotion or guesswork. As always, this video is for educational purposes only, and all trading carries significant risk. Viewers should thoroughly understand these concepts and evaluate their own financial situations before considering any active-trading approach.
