How to Create a Watch List through Screener

In this tutorial, we’ll walk through how to create and manage a watchlist in TradeVision. Watch lists are a simple but powerful feature that helps you track specific stocks, stay organized, and monitor market opportunities efficiently.

Step 1: Open the Screener 

  1. Go to the menu on the right of the platform or use the link: https://www.tradevision.io/screener/

  2. Click on Screener.

The TradeVision stock screener opens, letting you view and filter stocks.

Step 2: Access the Watch List Menu

In the upper-right corner of the screener, you'll see a dropdown labeled Watchlist.

The menu includes predefined lists by default, such as:

  • All Stocks / ETFs

  • S&P 500

  • NASDAQ 100

  • Commodities

Built-in lists allow you to quickly view stocks in major market indices.

For example, selecting S&P 500 loads all stocks currently in the index.

Step 3: Create a New Watch List

  1. Click Edit / Reorder Watch Lists.

  2. Select Create New Watch List.

  3. Enter a name for your list.

  4. Click Save.

Example:

Your new watch list is now created and ready to be populated with stocks.

Step 4: Add Tickers to Your Watch List

You can add stocks in two ways:

Method 1: Manually Add Tickers

Inside the watch list editor, type in ticker symbols individually.

Example:

  • NVDA (Nvidia)

  • CVX (Chevron)

  • SPY (S&P 500 ETF)

After entering your tickers, close the editor.

Method 2: Add Stocks From the Screener

You can also add stocks directly from the screener:

  1. Find a stock you want to track.

  2. Click the bookmark icon next to the ticker.

  3. Select your watch list.

Example: If you find AMZN (Amazon) in the screener, click the bookmark and assign it to your watch list.

The stock will immediately be added.

Step 5: Select Your Watch List

To view your custom list:

  1. Go back to the Watch List dropdown in the upper-right corner.

  2. Select the watch list you created.

You will now see all the stocks you added to the list.

Step 6: Manage Your Watch List and adding Alerts

Click Edit / Reorder Watch Lists. You can:

  • Add more tickers

  • Reorder watch lists

  • Set alerts (using the bell icon)

  • Delete a watch list (with the trash icon)

Alerts allow you to stay updated on important movements in your watch list.
