What TraderBase is
TraderBase combines configurable stock scanners, streaming alerts, TradeBase Agent, and supporting chart and market context in one focused workspace. It is built for this scanner workflow:
- Scan for configured momentum, price, gap, volume, relative-volume, float, liquidity, and event conditions.
- Alert when a supported qualifying event occurs.
- Validate the symbol with charts, VWAP, volume, news, filings, offering context, and halt data.
- Understand how TradeBase Agent connects available market events and sources.
- Decide independently whether and how to act.
Scanner events identify measured conditions. They are not personalized recommendations, instructions to buy or sell, or automated live orders.
