// WHERE ARGUS GOES FURTHER

What a screener can't tell you.

Screening finds candidates. Intelligence explains them.

THE GAP

Why is it moving?

FinViz can show you a stock breaking out on volume. Argus tells you whether it's driven by an earnings revision, an insider accumulation pattern, a congressional disclosure cluster, or a short squeeze setup — so you know if the move has substance behind it.

THE EDGE

Non-price data sources

FinViz works from price and volume data. Argus layers in SEC filings, congressional trades, earnings transcript sentiment, Fed communications, and off-exchange short data — sources that move stocks but don't appear on any chart until after the fact.

THE OUTPUT

A decision, not a chart

FinViz gives you a screen of candidates and lets you decide. Argus gives you a structured signal: direction, confidence score, entry zone, bull case, bear case, and the exact data point that would invalidate the thesis. Less work between data and action.

THE WORKFLOW

How they work together

Use FinViz to scan for technically interesting setups. Use Argus to check what the SEC filings, insider activity, and macro context say about each candidate. The combination is more powerful than either tool alone — and both are affordable at $19/month.
