Why do some stocks have no score?

21 Oct 2026 · 4 min read

In short

Because a score computed on too little data, or on an asset whose price barely moves, would mean nothing. In those cases the site says so instead of showing a number.

A dash where a score should be is not a fault. In a few precise cases a score would mean nothing, and the site prefers to say so rather than show a number that would look like a measurement.

What the site measures

Stocks that are too recent. Indicators need history: below thirty sessions of prices, the score is not calculated. That is the case of a company that has just listed.
Funds whose price barely moves. Money-market funds, very short bond funds, fixed-maturity funds: their price advances in small regular steps. On a curve like that, the RSI looks permanently overbought, the Bollinger bands shrink to nothing and a volatility-based stop would be hit by noise. These families are declared without a score, one by one, and the page gives the reason.
The fundamental score of assets without a balance sheet. Cryptocurrencies, commodities and funds have no accounts to read. They have a score, but it is the technical score alone.
Stocks outside the tracked universe. They do not appear on the dashboard. The free analysis page still calculates a score on demand, for any stock with at least thirty sessions of prices.

What the measurement does not say

That a stock without a score is bad. No score says the measurement does not apply, not that the stock fails it. Zero and “no score” are two different answers.
That a recent stock is risky or promising. It says nothing at all, and that is exactly what the dash means.

How to use it

For a stock the dashboard does not track, open the free analysis and type its symbol or its ISIN. If a stock you expect to see is missing, tell us from the Contact page, under “Stock or ISIN to add”: the requests are recorded.

Does a score of 80 mean I should buy?

No, it is a measurement. A score of 80 says the stock's current setup ticks many of the criteria we track, not what the price will do, nor whether the stock suits your situation.

Why does a stock's score change from one day to the next?

Because it is recalculated after every session on the latest prices. A score that moves does not mean the stock has changed in nature; it means its setup has changed since the day before.

Technical score vs fundamental score: what is the difference?

The technical score reads how the price behaves; the fundamental score reads the company's accounts. They are two different questions, and the score you see is a blend whose proportion you choose.
