Yes, you can use Finviz screeners to filter stocks based on your criteria and then use QuantConnect to automate the actual trading based on those filters. Here's an example workflow:
- Use the Finviz screener to filter stocks based on your criteria.
- Save the filtered stocks as a watchlist or export them to a CSV file.
- Import the watchlist or CSV file of filtered stocks. See Docs
- Create a momentum-based trading algorithm in QuantConnect that buys and sells stocks based on your criteria.
- Backtest the algorithm to ensure that it performs well.
- Once you're satisfied with the backtesting results, deploy the algorithm to a live trading account.
- Monitor the algorithm's performance and adjust it as necessary.
Overall, this workflow allows you to use Finviz screeners to filter stocks based on your criteria and then automate the actual trading using QuantConnect. You could also use FineFundamental Universe Selection to filter stocks as you would on Finviz.

Hi Papa bear
Thank you for the awesome answer. I have one more thing to add here. If you would like to live trade the algorithm, you'll need to either
- Set the live data source from Finviz live API (example implementation)
- Set the data source to a constantly updating csv (locally, or in dropbox), such that the algorithm receives new universe selection.
I'd say the first one is better since the timeliness, consistency and stability are secured.
