WickScan - AI Chart Scanner, by Pnav Systems LLC, is a Chrome extension that brings institutional-grade chart analysis into the browser for retail traders. It captures the visible chart and returns annotated images and trade suggestions without leaving the trading page. The extension provides pattern recognition, annotated overlays, and suggested entry/stop/target levels. Day traders and swing traders get quick visual second opinions to validate setups while working on familiar trading sites.

WickScan reads chart images with a server-side AI consensus

The tool processes a captured chart image through a proprietary backend called WickAI to generate trade output. The developer describes a multi-engine approach: the Pro tier uses three independent AI engines to cross-validate scans, and the system returns annotated overlays plus suggested risk:reward plans. What you receive is an image-based analysis carried out by the WickAI backend, rather than a local indicator overlay produced by a charting platform.

Detection breadth and timeframe confluence support pattern-focused workflows

WickScan identifies more than 40 chart patterns, including Head & Shoulders, Flags, and Triangles, and it can analyse up to four timeframes for confluence. The extension draws support and resistance lines with strength ratings and produces annotated chart outputs that highlight detected setups. Traders who base decisions on classical pattern recognition can use these visual overlays as a second opinion for setup confirmation.

In-browser integration is visual and site-agnostic, not API-based automation

The extension relies on a one-click screen-capture method and a floating action button that appears on popular sites such as TradingView, Binance, Coinbase, Webull, and Yahoo Finance. Because it works by capturing what is visible on the page, WickScan does not require exchange APIs and does not execute orders automatically. The floating panel remains available during a session so scanned results stay visible alongside the chart.

Scan limits and limited public feedback affect large-scale testing

WickScan offers a free tier that includes five scans per week using a WickAI Lite engine, which restricts how extensively users can test the system without upgrading. Public ratings on the Chrome Web Store are currently sparse, so community validation of unusual setups is limited. The extension does include social exports for annotated charts to platforms like X and LinkedIn, which helps users share and discuss results outside the extension.

Best used as a visual second-opinion tool, not an automated signal provider

WickScan is a focused option for traders who want quick, image-based confirmation of setups while they work on web charts. Because analysis is produced through the developer's backend and the free tier limits scans, use the tool as supplemental feedback and maintain your own entry and money-management rules rather than treating scans as automatic trade triggers.
