🧠 Build a Simple AI-Powered Stock Watchlist

Hello Investor,

Tired of chasing stock ideas on social media or struggling to stay organized?

Today, we’ll show you how to build a simple, AI-enhanced stock watchlist—using free tools like Google Sheets, Finviz, TradingView, and ChatGPT.

You’ll walk away with a system that helps you track promising stocks, spot trends faster, and make more confident investment decisions.

Step 1: Use a Stock Screener to Find Trade Ideas

Start by heading to a free screener like Finviz or TradingView.

Set a few simple filters like:

• Market Cap: Mid or large cap (over $2B)

• PE Ratio: Under 25

• Performance: Positive over past 3 or 6 months

• Volume: Over 500K (so the stock has good liquidity)

Once you’ve got 5–15 stocks that look interesting, download to CSV then copy the tickers and names into Google Sheets.

Step 2: Create Your Watchlist in Google Sheets

Set up a table like this:

🛠️ You can use the =GOOGLEFINANCE("AAPL", "price") function to pull in current prices automatically. Just substitute the relevant stock ticker and you’re good to go.

Or, just update them manually every few days—no pressure.

Step 3: Use ChatGPT to Analyze Your Watchlist

Now comes the AI magic.

Copy your table (just the tickers and names) and paste it into ChatGPT. Then ask:

• “Give me a quick summary of each of these companies.”

• “Which of these stocks has the strongest growth outlook?”

• “Rank these by long-term potential.”

You’ll get clean, fast insight into which stocks might deserve a closer look—and why.

Bonus Tips

• Add a “Catalyst” column in your sheet: 📈 earnings this week? 💼 insider buying?

• Re-run your screener weekly and refresh your list.

• Use ChatGPT to track sector trends or news summaries, “What’s happening in the semiconductor sector this week?”

✅ Why This Works

This setup gives you:

• A clear, up-to-date list of stocks you actually care about

• AI-generated insights to save you hours of research

• A simple, repeatable process you can build into your routine

You don’t need coding, fancy tools, or a finance degree—just curiosity, consistency, and the right questions.
