1. Filter Menu: This is where you can change the settings and filters on the Smart Money Scanner feature. Filter out the noise by specifically filtering for Volume, Prior Shares Owned, Shares Traded, the %change, the amount of money ($) traded, current shares owned, and the WealthScore. Take advantage of hiding certain columns you don't want to see in the Column Visibility section. You can change what Watchlist your added symbols go to by going to the Default Watchlist section.
