Appearance
Stock Ideas
Nine recurring formats. Each one has a fixed rule, picks its own company from the same daily snapshot, and prints a card built from that company's numbers.
The point is not that the list is long. It is that every idea on it can be checked: the rule is written down, the figures on the card are the ones the rule read, and the same screen runs again next week whether or not last week's pick worked out.
TickerForge is educational decision-support software. It is not financial advice, a signal channel, a broker, or a promise of investment results.
What Makes This Different From A Pick List
Most idea feeds have one thing in common: you cannot tell why a name is on the list, so you cannot tell when it should come off.
The rule is fixedWritten before the company was chosen.
Each format states its gate in advance — a score above a threshold, a quality reading that has to hold, a cash flow line that has to be rising. The screen applies it; nobody argues a favourite name past it.
The card is the dataEvery figure shown is a figure the rule read.
The picture is drawn from the same snapshot the screen ran on. It is not stock artwork with a ticker typed over it, and when a figure is missing the card drops the line rather than inventing one.
The limits are printedEach format says what it does not check.
The growth screen does not look at price. The value screen does not claim the discount is unearned. Saying so on the post itself is what separates a research format from a tip.
How A Company Gets Picked
One pipeline, nine questions asked of it.
Step 1One daily snapshot
Every covered company gets a dated record: business quality, risk, growth, valuation context, ownership, insider activity and timing, all computed the same way for everyone.
Step 2The format's own gate
Each screen filters that snapshot by its own published rule and ranks what survives. Nothing is hand-picked, and the same rule runs on the site, in the channel and in a partner's post.
Step 3One name, with its evidence
The top company that has not run recently becomes the post, with the figures its gate read printed on the card beside it.
A company can appear on more than one screen, and that is information rather than a duplicate: a name that clears the growth gate and the ownership gate in the same week is a different observation from one that clears only one.
The Nine Formats
Recovery and quality
Weekly · in Partner Cabinet🔄 Turnaround Detected
Quarterly numbers that have started moving the other way after a stretch of decline. A turnaround score reads revenue, margins, cash flow and the balance sheet together, so it moves slowly and it can relapse.
Does not claim the recovery continues. Many turnarounds relapse.
Weekly · in Partner Cabinet🏆 Triple-Rated
One company clearing three fixed gates on the same day: the TickerForge score, the Piotroski F-Score and the Altman Z-Score. The thresholds were set in advance and were not fitted to the name that cleared them.
Says nothing about price. A company can clear all three and still be expensive.
Weekly · channel only🩺 Balance Sheet Stress
The same three gates read the other way — a company failing them together. Published as a caution, not as a short idea.
Distress is a reading, not a prediction of failure.
Weekly Gems
Three screens sharing one Monday slot, rotating by week, each asking a different question of the same snapshot.
Weekly · in Partner Cabinet🌱 Growth In The Numbers
Revenue, earnings and cash flow all still moving the right way on the trailing twelve months — not on a forecast — with the business quality holding up underneath.
Does not check price. A company can grow exactly as described and still be priced for more.
Weekly · in Partner Cabinet💰 Below What It Is Worth
Priced under a fair value estimate, where the estimate is usable and the quality reading holds. The card shows the price against the estimate and the gap between them.
A discount is a starting question. The price is often the market pricing a problem the model has not caught.
Weekly · in Partner Cabinet🏛 Quality The Money Is Backing
A good business reading where the people who file their trades — insiders, tracked funds, or both — have been adding. The card shows both filing sides and what they are adding into.
Ownership is a confirmation layer, not a thesis. Filers are early as often as they are right.
Ownership and cash
Weekly · in Partner Cabinet👤 Insiders Are Buying
Meaningful net open-market buying over recent months, from people who file every transaction. The card shows the gross legs, not only the net, and whether the funds agree.
Insiders buy for many reasons and are frequently early.
Weekly · channel only👤 Insiders Are Selling
The same screen with the sign flipped. Same card, same evidence, opposite direction.
Selling is routine — diversification and tax bills look identical to conviction in a filing.
Weekly · channel only💸 Cash Flow Says Otherwise
Reported earnings negative or thin while free cash flow is still growing. The card gives the Piotroski F-Score its own panel, because that is what separates improving operations from a company harvesting itself.
Rising cash can be a mispricing or it can be cut investment. The F-Score is the tell, not the headline.
What The Cards Look Like
Each format draws its own card from the company's own numbers.
Why A Channel Publishes These
RhythmThe screens choose the topic.
A recurring format means there is something to publish on schedule without hunting for a subject, and readers learn to expect it.
CredibilityEvidence under your own conclusion.
You keep your voice and your view. The card supplies the figures underneath, and the printed limits are what stop a research post from reading like a tip.
MeasurableEvery post carries a tracked link.
Clicks, bot starts and referral attribution are visible in the Partner Cabinet, so a format that is not working can be dropped on evidence.
Six of the nine generate from the Partner Cabinet with one tap. The three marked channel-only are published by TickerForge but not generated under a partner's name: two of them are negative readings, and publishing "this company is in distress" under your own byline is a different editorial act from publishing an idea.
