How the Top Finder — StockWhale scanner works

The Top Finder system is the bearish counterpart to the Bottom Finder. It identifies stocks that are statistically overbought and showing signs of distribution — extended far beyond their moving averages, with momentum indicators diverging from price (making lower highs while price makes higher highs), and volume shifting from accumulation to distribution patterns. These are the warning signs that precede significant pullbacks. Our scanner quantifies these exhaustion signals across 5,000+ stocks daily, helping traders identify potential shorting opportunities or exit signals for existing long positions before the decline begins.

What we analyze

Extension above 50-day and 200-day moving averages
RSI and MACD bearish divergence signals
Volume distribution days (high volume selling)
Proximity to historical resistance levels
Climactic top reversal candlestick patterns

How our grading system works

For top setups, an A+ grade means price is extended well above key moving averages with clear bearish divergence, increasing distribution days, and climactic volume suggesting exhaustion. This is not a prediction of future price movement — it is a way to prioritize which charts deserve your attention first.

A+
Textbook setup with strong confluence
A
High-quality setup worth watching
B+
Decent setup with some reservations
B
Pattern detected but lower conviction
