Should I Trade Based on Indonesian Stock Screener Results on Pluang?

No — Screeners are filters, not recommendations, and a stock appearing in a Screener result only means it currently matches that screener's mathematical criteria, not that Pluang is telling you to buy or sell it. Treat any Screener match as one input into your own research process rather than a standalone buy or sell signal, because a "match" today says nothing about whether the underlying criteria will still hold tomorrow or whether the stock's price will move the direction the screener's name implies. Every Indonesian stock carries investment risk, including the risk of partial or total loss, and that risk doesn't change just because a stock happens to clear a screener's threshold. Screener criteria are entirely rules-based and automated — no Pluang analyst reviews or curates which stocks appear in a given screener's list, which is precisely what separates Screeners from Expert Signals, Pluang's separate research-backed product with its own reasoning, target prices, and Buy CTA.

What a Screener match actually tells you — and doesn't:

• A "match" means the stock currently meets the screener's stated criteria as of the last data refresh — nothing more.
• A "match" does not mean the stock will go up, that the criteria will keep holding, or that Pluang has formed any view on the stock's prospects.

Common pitfalls when reading Screener results:

• Cheap valuations can stay cheap — a stock in "Undervalued Opportunities" may have a low P/E because the business has a real, structural problem, not because it's a hidden bargain.
• Momentum can reverse — a stock in "Momentum Stocks" or "RSI Strong Momentum" can lose that momentum abruptly, sometimes the very next trading session.
• 52-week lows can keep dropping — being near a 52-week low is not evidence that a bottom is in.
• Broker accumulation can flip — Bandar Index reflects past trading flow, not the brokers' future intent.
• Volume Breakout can be noise — unusual volume can just as easily be coordinated trading ("saham gorengan") as a real catalyst.

Before acting on any Screener result: read the company's recent filings and news, check whether the criteria still hold at the moment you place the order (results can shift between when you open the screener and when you act), weigh your own risk tolerance and time horizon, and remember that past performance never guarantees future results. If you need help understanding what a specific Screener is measuring, Pluang Care (in-app live chat, tanya@pluang.com, or (021) 8063 0065, Mon–Fri 09:00–18:00 WIB) can explain how the product works, but cannot give you investment advice.

Q: Are Screeners a form of investment advice from Pluang?
No. Screeners are automated filtering tools that apply fixed criteria to Pluang's stock universe — Pluang does not provide personalized investment advice through Screeners or any recommendation on what to do with a matching stock. The decision to buy, hold, or skip any result is entirely yours.

Q: Does Pluang manually review or curate the stocks that appear in a Screener?
No. Screener results are generated entirely by rules-based criteria running against live and historical market data — no analyst selects, approves, or vets which stocks show up. This is the key difference from Expert Signals, where Pluang's in-house research team hand-picks each idea and attaches its own reasoning.

Q: Can I lose money following a Screener result?
Yes. All investing carries risk, including the risk of partial or total loss, and a Screener match doesn't reduce or remove that risk in any way — it's simply confirmation that a stock currently fits a set of criteria, not a guarantee about its future performance.

Q: Is Pluang responsible if a stock from a Screener result underperforms?
No. Screeners are research tools that surface information; you're responsible for your own investment decisions and the outcomes that follow from them, exactly as you would be for any stock you found through your own independent research.
