This page is free to read with no account at all. Signing up takes an email and a password: a free account runs the scanner on the top 10 scored rows of any scan, keeps one saved screen, a 5-ticker watchlist, and opens 12 ticker detail pages a day. The card is what starts a 30-day Premium trial — $0 that day, then $19.99/month from day 30, cancel online any time before then — and that is what turns on every matching row instead of the first 10, alerts, the 200-ticker watchlist and recent insider buys (SEC Form 4).
