What Is GlowScore? Our 0–100 Stock Ranking Metric Explained
Traditional stock screeners give you raw numbers — P/E ratios, volume, percent change — and leave you to make sense of them. GlowScore takes a different approach: it distills several technical signals into a single, easy-to-read number from 0 to 100, so you can rank your watchlist at a glance.
What goes into GlowScore
GlowScore is a composite metric. Rather than relying on any single indicator, it blends multiple dimensions of a stock's recent behavior into one normalized score:
- Momentum — how strongly the stock has been moving relative to recent history.
- Volume — whether trading activity is elevated, suggesting conviction behind the move.
- Volatility — how much price is swinging, which affects both opportunity and risk.
These inputs are combined and scaled to a 0–100 range, where higher scores indicate stronger, more active setups and lower scores indicate quieter or weaker ones.
How to use GlowScore
GlowScore is best used as a triage tool. Add the stocks you care about to your GlowTicker watchlist, and they are automatically ranked by GlowScore — pushing the most active names to the top. Instead of scanning dozens of tickers manually, you start your research with the ones showing the most momentum and participation.
What GlowScore is not
GlowScore is a technical, momentum-oriented signal — not a valuation model and not a buy or sell recommendation. A high score does not mean a stock is a good long-term investment, and a low score does not mean it is bad. It simply tells you where the energy is right now, so you can prioritize your research.
