Three Features, One Release

v1.5.0 adds three features driven directly by community feedback. Each solves a specific gap in the daily momentum workflow: knowing the liquidity behind a setup, finding the tightest weekly coils in the Stage 2 universe, and being alerted automatically when your watchlist candidates approach their pivots.

💰 Turnover Column
  • Volume × Price ÷ 1e7 = ₹ Cr
  • Sortable (default: highest first)
  • In every tab
  • Assesses institutional participation
📒 3-Week Tight Tab
  • 3 weekly closes within 1.5% of each other
  • Within 3% of 3-weeks-ago close
  • Stage 2 alignment required
  • ~20 stocks on a typical day
🔔 Near-Pivot Alert
  • Fires after every data load
  • Watchlist ∩ Near 52W High
  • Gold-bordered toast, 6-second dismiss
  • No manual tab-switching needed

🔥 v1.5.0: Three Features, One Upgrade

Finmagine Trader v1.5.0 arrives with three additions, each responding to specific feedback from the user community. There is no single headline feature — instead, v1.5.0 rounds out the extension’s workflow at three distinct points: before you enter (turnover liquidity check), finding the tightest setups (3-Week Tight tab), and monitoring your watchlist passively (Near-Pivot alert).

Together, they push the extension closer to a complete pre-market preparation tool. You can now assess liquidity, find the coiling setups within the Stage 2 universe, and be notified automatically when your watchlist candidates reach actionable territory — all without leaving the popup.

💡 Community-Driven Development

All three v1.5.0 features originated from specific user requests. The 3-Week Tight scan and Near-Pivot alert were requested by @gaurav_aggarwal1 and others in the community. The Turnover column was a recurring ask across multiple users who wanted to assess liquidity before placing entries. Your feedback shapes every release.

💰 Turnover (₹ Cr) Column

Every results table in every tab now includes a Turnover column. It shows today’s traded value for each stock in Crore Rupees. The column is sortable — click the Turnover header to sort highest first (the default when loading) or lowest first on a second click.

How It Is Computed

📐 The Formula

Turnover (₹ Cr) = Volume × Price ÷ 1,00,00,000

Dividing by 1 crore (1e7) converts the raw rupee value to Crore Rupees. The Price used is the day’s closing price from the ChartInk scan result.

Display Format

The turnover value is formatted based on its magnitude to keep the table readable:

Turnover Range Display Format Example
₹ 100 Cr and above Whole number (no decimal) ₹333 Cr
Below ₹ 100 Cr One decimal place ₹36.9 Cr

Why Turnover Matters Before Entry

Volume tells you how many shares traded. Turnover tells you how much money moved. A stock trading 5 lakh shares at ₹20 has turnover of ₹1 Cr. A stock trading 5 lakh shares at ₹2,000 has turnover of ₹100 Cr. Both have the same volume, but entirely different liquidity profiles.

How to Use It in Practice

1

Sort by Turnover (default)

The table loads with the highest-turnover stocks at the top. This immediately shows which setups have institutional-grade liquidity behind them.

2

Filter by your position size

If you plan to invest ₹1 lakh or more, ignore stocks below ₹50 Cr turnover. You want to be able to exit quickly if the setup fails.

3

Combine with Score

A Score = 4 stock with ₹200+ Cr turnover is the intersection of signal quality and liquidity. This is the highest-value shortlist for the day.

💡 Turnover vs Volume: Which to Sort By?

Sort by Volume to find stocks with unusually high relative activity (relative to their own average). Sort by Turnover to find stocks with the deepest absolute liquidity. For swing traders focused on entering and exiting cleanly, Turnover is the more directly useful metric. Volume remains the signal strength indicator.

📒 The 3-Week Tight Tab

The 3-Week Tight tab is the eighth tab in Finmagine Trader (Tab 7 in zero-indexed order, between VCP Breakout and IPO Breakout). It scans for stocks exhibiting Minervini’s “tight weekly” coiling pattern: three consecutive weekly closes within a very narrow range, above their key moving averages.

The Scan Logic

📐 The Three Conditions

All three must be true simultaneously:

  1. Each of the last 3 weekly closes is within 1.5% of the previous week’s close — the range of week-to-week change is tight
  2. Current weekly close is within 3% of the close from 3 weeks ago — the overall 3-week drift is narrow
  3. Stage 2 alignment: SMA(50) > SMA(200) — the stock is in an established long-term uptrend

The Minervini SEPA “Tight Weekly” Pattern

In Minervini’s SEPA framework, the “3-week tight” pattern (sometimes called “3 weeks tight” or “tight area”) is one of the most reliable pre-breakout formations. It signals that:

“The 3-week tight pattern represents the ultimate supply-demand equilibrium before an explosive move. Price is not falling because buyers are matching every seller. The pivot point is the top of this tight area.”

Paraphrasing the SEPA methodology framework

How to Use the 3-Week Tight Tab

The typical count on a normal market day is around 20 stocks. This is a filtered, selective view — you are seeing only the Stage 2 names that are currently in the tightest weekly coils. Not all of them will break out; some will break down. The tab gives you candidates, not trade recommendations.

1

Check the 3-Week Tight tab daily

Add it to your morning routine alongside All Three and VCP. The ~20 stocks here are the Stage 2 universe’s tightest coils.

2

Add to watchlist immediately

Stocks in the 3-Week Tight scan today may not be actionable today. Add them to your watchlist so the Near-Pivot alert fires when they hit 52W high territory.

3

Open TradingView — verify the weekly chart

Switch to a weekly chart. You should see 3+ nearly identical weekly candles (very small bodies, similar high-low range) at the top of a prior uptrend.

4

Wait for volume breakout

The entry signal is a close above the tight area’s high on volume above the 20-week average. The extension’s High Volume tab will catch this when it happens.

The 3-Week Tight vs VCP: What Is the Difference?

Aspect 3-Week Tight VCP Breakout
Timeframe Weekly closes (3 weeks) Daily price criteria
Market cap All caps (Stage 2 universe) Small-to-mid (≤₹30K Cr MCap)
Primary signal Weekly range contraction RSI > 50, above 50/200 SMA, no F&O
Typical count ~20 stocks ~32 stocks
Best for Finding large-cap and mid-cap coiling setups missed by VCP Asymmetric small-cap positional plays
💡 Combine Both Tabs

A stock appearing in both the VCP tab and the 3-Week Tight tab simultaneously is exhibiting both daily and weekly contraction. This double confirmation is a particularly strong signal. Check both tabs and note any overlap.

🔔 Near-Pivot Watchlist Alert

The Near-Pivot alert is a toast notification that fires automatically after every data load. It tells you if any stock in your extension watchlist is currently appearing in the Near 52W High scan — meaning it is within 2% of its 52-week high and therefore approaching a potential breakout pivot.

What Triggers the Alert

After every data fetch (whether triggered by opening the extension, switching filters, or a manual refresh), the extension computes the intersection of two sets:

If the intersection is non-empty — i.e., at least one watchlisted stock is near its 52W high today — the toast notification fires.

What It Looks Like

🔔 Toast Format

A gold-bordered toast notification appears at the bottom of the screen listing the matching stock symbols. It auto-dismisses after 6 seconds. You can dismiss it manually by clicking the close button. The toast is intentionally understated — it does not play a sound. It is a visual nudge, not an alarm.

Why the Alert Is Useful

The standard workflow for watchlist users involves manually switching to the Near 52W High tab and scanning visually for their names. This only works if you remember to check. The Near-Pivot alert removes the manual step entirely:

How to Build an Effective Watchlist for the Alert

1

Add 3-Week Tight candidates

Stocks from the 3-Week Tight tab are ideal watchlist candidates. They are coiling now — the Near-Pivot alert fires when they finally reach pivot territory.

2

Add VCP candidates

VCP stocks that haven’t yet broken out. When they approach their 52W high with the next base, the alert will notify you automatically.

3

Check TradingView when the alert fires

The alert is a prompt, not a trade signal. When it fires, open TradingView immediately. Is the move on volume? Is it a clean breakout above the base high?

⚠ The Alert Is a Prompt, Not a Signal

A watchlisted stock appearing near its 52W high means it is approaching actionable territory — it does not mean you should buy immediately. Many near-high moves fail or are low-volume. Always check the chart, confirm volume, and verify the broader market context before acting.

🚀 What These Features Mean Together

v1.5.0 completes a workflow loop that was previously manual. Before this release, you had to:

  1. Manually assess turnover by looking up each stock’s volume and price separately
  2. Derive tight-weekly coiling setups by scanning through Stage 2 stocks on TradingView one by one
  3. Remember to check whether your watchlisted stocks were near their 52W highs by switching tabs manually

Now, turnover is in every table. The 3-Week Tight tab gives you the coiling setups directly. And the Near-Pivot alert fires automatically so you never miss a watchlisted stock hitting pivot territory.

The extension’s core purpose — compressing the morning research workflow to under 5 minutes — is meaningfully advanced by these three additions. Each minute you spend manually checking something the tool can surface automatically is a minute better spent on chart analysis and position sizing.
