You are a trader.

That’s right – you’re a trader not an investor.

You trade tickers – not companies.

You might call yourself a day trader, a swing trader, a scalper, a pure speculator, the list goes on. Regardless of how you identify yourself, your goal is to find trading opportunities each day and profit from them.

And traders want to scan. They need to scan.

You don’t want to spend your time sifting endlessly through hundreds of charts looking for patterns or trolling chat rooms trying to find the next big hype. All of that just distracts you from doing the work that counts – being focused on properly entering and exiting trades.

Almost all traders have experienced the frustration of being the “last one to the party.” Missing the huge run. Snoozing on a 400% gainer. Clueless about that FDA approval news. It always sucks.

Scanning is the answer. It always has been for the traders who thrive. Long or short. Price-based, volume-based or news-based. Why would you ever want to go looking for stocks when they could come looking for you? You wouldn’t. Set it and forget it. Work smart not dumb. That’s how the most successful traders operate.

Since 2002, EquityFeed has provided what many believe is the premier stock discovery platform. Built for traders. Not investors. We know our niche and that’s where we stay. Our “secret sauce” technology streams the entire U.S equity markets to your desktop over your internet connection. What does that mean? It means your computer is processing every single tick of every single stock traded on the US markets in real-time with zero latency. Wait what? How is that even possible? Compression algorithms my friend. Our quant engineers have game. We’ve turned your personal computer into a high-grade ticker plant. Who else does that? No one.

And that’s where the scanning magic happens.

EquityFeed lets you harness this tsunami of real-time streaming data through our beautiful scanning user interface. Create custom rules that slice, dice, chop, sort and rank the entire markets as they move. Find the stocks that meet your wildest trading desires and have them delivered to you on a silver platter. It’s like being spoon fed. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel. It’s like taking candy from a baby.

There are many trading platforms and terminals that you can use to get quotes and news. Build some watchlists. Analyze charts. But how many of those platforms have gone all in on building something really special? Something unique. Something that makes you say wow. Something that makes you better. Not many.

Why is that? Well, for one it’s the harder way to do business. It calls for more heart, soul and creativity than most financial tech companies have in them. It comes from a burning desire to make your customers rely on your product to the point where they feel helpless without it. This kind of caring is intense in the best possible way.

And second, they all play the same game with the same generic playbook. It’s a game of robotic help replies, and price gouging. It’s a focus on quantity instead of quality; on instant gratification instead of the long game.

But we don’t play by the same rules as everyone else. We never have.

We play by rules that help us help you.

Here are just a few of the ways we strive to exceed your expectations:

We needed a new name that captures this evolution of our financial markets technology.

As of today, EquityFeed is now Scanz.

Our new name is inspired by what we do – provide the world’s leading market scanning platform for financial traders. We couldn’t imagine a more appropriate name to push our technology company into the next frontier.

Today is day one all over again. And we couldn’t be more excited to keep serving you our beloved customer.
