Stock Screening Software and Stock Charting Software
Few stock screeners and stock charting tools can match the flexibility and speed of Chartsmart. The entire program, including our database of charts and news, installs directly on your PC so screening through our database of over 15,000 Canadian and U.S. securities is incredibly fast. In addition you get extra security and privacy since your data is on your computer, NOT on the internet. Daily end-of-day data updates are available at about 4:30 Pacific and take only seconds.
Use our preset screens, or create your own custom screens. Combine hundreds of fundamental and technical screening criteria. For example, screen out cash rich stocks that exhibit dividend growth and revenue. At the same time, specify that they are at year lows and breaking into uptrends. Once your desired screen is created, scroll through the charts and save the ones you like into your personal watch lists. You can even create your own formulas for screens. For example, specify that your screen only selects stocks that have more cash per share than their current trading price. Easily combine fundamental screens with traditional technical screens such as moving average crossovers, bollinger bands breakouts, and MACD crossovers.
Chartsmart excels as a stock screener and as a stock charting program whether you are researching Canadian Juniors, or screening U.S. and Canadian blue chips stocks. We want you to have the opportunity to try Chartsmart with no strings attached and no obligation. Therefore we do not require your email or any credit card information.

Chartsmart is a great stock charting and screening tool, but going further, it ultimately becomes your stock organizer. As you scroll through charts that you have screened, you can quickly place them in your watch lists. You can then run further screens on your lists, compare them to eachother, or simply scroll through the charts and make notes on them each day. You can even export data and symbols to popular formats for further detailed analysis that you may do.
Chartsmart has a sophisticated stock backtesting system which allows you to backtest your stock screens. For example, select 7 of your favorite technical stock screens (e.g. MACD crossovers, candlestick patterns, etc.), and compare their performance for each day over any 10 day period. You can look for the stock screens that give the highest rate of return over the period, or any day in the period. This feature is possible because we keep the daily backtest files that hold the screening data. This is an example video that discusses how backtesting is done with Chartsmart, though the selected stock screens used are quite random and much better screens can be determined with some effort by the user.
With Chartsmart you can virtually print your own chartbook containing the stocks in your watch lists. Click here to see how you can batch print stock charts, 4 per page from your filtered list.

With 160 companies in your filtered list, you could print them with all your custom indicators, to pdfs with 4 charts per page.
Here are some more features you will find in Chartsmart!
- Runs under all versions of Windows but not on a MAC Operating System. Can run on a MAC if you use Windows emulation software.
- Includes NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX, TSX, TSX VENTURE, CSE, and main OTCBB. In 2023 we added the CSE (Canadian Stock Exchange). This is a relatively new exchange with about 800 listed companies. All exchanges include 10 year price history charts, fundamental data which can be plotted on the charts, and news. Chartsmart allows significant flexibility in screening based on any combination of fundamentals, technicals, and news.

- Create unlimited portfolios and watch lists.
- Filter Arrow Alerts - red sell signal arrows and green buy signal arrows when various indicators occur such as MACD crossovers.
- Export your end-of-day daily and historical stock data to popular file formats.
- Draw trendlines on 100 charts that you may be watching. Then run a screen on them to determine which ones have crossed the trendlines. Screening trendline breakouts is a feature found in no other software that we are aware of.
- We include prepared lists you can screen. A few examples are US ETFS, CDN ETFS, or constituents of various Canadian and US INDEX groups. Screen stocks in these custom lists and then do further screens on them, customizing your screen to your needs.
- Once you have created your own custom lists of say 175 stocks that you are watching, you can use that list as a template on which to do other screens. For example you could specify the ones in your List that are near year lows. This might be 23 stocks which you can save in a new List.
- If you have multiple lists for example A with 240 stocks and B with 480 stocks, and list C with 111 stocks, combine them and create a list of only stocks common to them, or create a new list that contains stocks found in all the lists.
- Chartsmart has over 50 premade candlestick screens that you can apply. They are all a part of our custom formulas that we create and you can combine with other screening variables. The custom formula database is found when you go to the FILTER MENU, then to the YOU SPECIFY TAB. When you go to CREATE FORMULA at the bottom you will see our option to review the CHARTSMART CUSTOM FORMULA DATABASE at the bottom of the page.
- Some stock screeners will allow you to screen for RSI over 70, but how about over time? Chartsmart enables you to screen, not just on the value of an indicator, but also on its rate of change. For example, specify that the 14 day RSI is currently over 80 but 5 days ago it was under 50, and 10 days ago it was under 30. This feature uses our daily backtesting stock screening files and is another unique feature to Chartsmart.
- Create your own candlestick pattern screens. You could specify, for example, that todays high is within 5% of yesterdays low, and yesterdays close is no more than 20% from the low of the range between the high and low of the previous day.
