I’m still pretty early in my trading journey, but I’ve started to realise how much your tools can make a difference. I keep watching stocks move 15 to 30 percent, and by the time it shows up on my platform, the move is basically gone. At first, I thought it was just me and my strategy, but now I’m not so sure. When I started comparing timestamps between the actual moves and what I’m seeing on my charts, it honestly looks like my data is just lagging, and it makes it really hard to trade properly when you feel like you’re always a step late. I’m still figuring out my style, but I do know I probably need something with proper real time data instead of these delayed refreshes. I don’t mind paying for a solid tool if it actually helps, I just don’t want to waste money on something that sounds great but doesn’t deliver.
What scanners are you using that you are finding worthwhile?

Any legit brokerage will have real time quotes for a price.
Tools really do make a big difference, not just strategy! If it’s your strategy, you should try to do adjustments, but if in the long term it doesnt make a difference, it’s time you go for it in a different way. I suggest using tryLattice for keeping track of market data and analytics in real time (: goodluck!
