What is a remote filter?
FirstAlert provides a broad range of remote filters that search the NYSE, NASDAQ, and AMEX for stocks that meet specific price, volume, trade size, trend, moving average, and other important criteria. Remote Filters are calculated on Neovest’s remote filter servers. The results of FirstAlert’s remote filters are then ranked, and the top 75-150 stocks are displayed in FirstAlert’s Remote Filter window. If you wish to read specific information concerning a particular remote filter, click Open | Remote Filter in your FirstAlert system. Once the “Select Remote Filter” box appears, click on the remote filter for which you would like to read a definition. Next, check the “Remote Filter Description” box. Once you check the “Remote Filter Description” box, a separate window will appear with a description of the selected remote filter. Once the “Remote Filter Description” box is checked, you may click on any other remote filter to view its description.
