Question 1

What is the Momo Scanner?

Accepted Answer

The Momo Scanner is Momo Meter's real-time momentum stock scanner. It monitors every U.S. small-cap from 4am to 8pm ET and fires an enriched alert card — Squeeze Score, short-availability data, dilution risk, float, and a chart — within 1–3 seconds of a stock starting to move on heavy relative volume.

Question 2

What is a momentum stock scanner?

Accepted Answer

A momentum stock scanner continuously monitors the market and flags stocks making an unusual move right now — a fast price change on heavy relative volume. Instead of you watching hundreds of tickers, the scanner surfaces the handful that are actually in play so you can act before the move is over.

Question 3

What makes Momo Meter different from other stock scanners for day trading?

Accepted Answer

Most scanners tell you a stock is moving. Momo Meter tells you whether it is worth trading. Every alert ships with a 0–100 Squeeze Score, dilution-risk badges from live SEC EDGAR monitoring, real-time short-availability data (cost to borrow, shares available, Reg SHO/SSR), and a 5-minute chart with prior alerts plotted.

Question 4

How fast are the alerts?

Accepted Answer

End-to-end latency from scanner trigger to your device is 1–3 seconds. We don't claim "instant" or "sub-second" because that wouldn't be true.

Question 5

Does the scanner cover pre-market and after-hours?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The scanner runs from 4am to 8pm ET, so pre-market gappers and after-hours movers are covered, not just the regular session.

Question 6

Who is the scanner built for?

Accepted Answer

Small-cap and low-float day traders who trade momentum and short squeezes. The data — borrow rates, dilution filings, float, Squeezeability — is tuned for the sub-$500M, high-volatility universe rather than large-cap investing.

Question 7

How is the Squeeze Score calculated?

Accepted Answer

It is a 0–100 composite that scores how squeeze-prone a setup is from the short-selling picture — cost to borrow, short-volume ratio and its recent trend, days to cover, and how tight the setup is — plus a live intraday momentum component, minus penalties for offsetting risk. Scores map to bands (Watch, Active, Strong, Elite), and the top drivers are surfaced on every card.

Question 8

Is Momo Meter a stock scanner or a stock screener?

Accepted Answer

Both. The Momo Scanner watches the tape live and pushes alerts when a stock starts moving. The Momo Screener works on demand: type any symbol and get the same enriched card — Squeeze Score, short-availability data, dilution badges, float, and months of cash — without waiting for an alert to fire.

Question 9

How much does the Momo Scanner cost?

Accepted Answer

The scanner is part of the Momo Meter subscription: $10/month, with a 7-day free trial that requires no card. There is no separate scanner fee. Quarterly ($27) and annual ($96) billing are optional ways to save.

Question 10

Is this financial advice?

Accepted Answer

No. Momo Meter is a data and alerting service. Nothing here is investment advice or a recommendation. Trading low-float small-cap stocks is high-risk and you can lose 100% of your capital.
