## Creating a Screener

To build a new scanner, click the **\+ New Screener** button to open the configuration dialog.

### Watchlists

Watchlists are sets of symbols that define the scope of your scan. You can choose from a variety of predefined categories or use your own custom-built lists.

- **Predefined Lists**: Quickly scan sectors like **Majors**, **Layer 1s**, or **Memes**.
- **Custom Watchlists**: Users can create their own personalized watchlists to track specific assets. For detailed instructions on managing your own lists, refer to the [Terminal Watchlist Documentation](user-guides/core/terminal/watchlist).

### Metadata & Categories

- **Categorization**: Assign your screener to categories like **Order Flow**, **Liquidity**, or **Narrative**.
- **Tags**: Add searchable keywords to improve discoverability on the Hub.
- **Preserve Settings**: Enable this to keep your current column and filter configurations when saving a template.

## Visualization Modes

Customize how you digest market data using specialized view modes:

- **List View**: A standard tabular layout for comparing metrics across symbols.
- **Tiles View**: A treemap-style visualization where tile size and color reflect market momentum or specific indicator values.
- **Strips View**: A streamlined horizontal view focused on price and key values.
- **Scatter Plot**: Visualize asset distribution across two custom axes (e.g., Price vs. Volume Delta).
