Best stock upside one week

Screening Filters

1. region: US

   • Purpose: Limit the search to U.S.-listed stocks.
   • Rationale: The user specifically asked for a “US stock,” so this ensures the results are relevant to the requested market and avoids non-U.S. equities.

2. volume: min 500000

   • Purpose: Include only stocks with at least 500,000 shares traded.
   • Rationale: Higher volume usually means better liquidity and cleaner price discovery. For a one-week upside screen, this helps focus on stocks that traders can actually buy and sell efficiently, and that are more likely to have meaningful short-term attention.

3. moving_average_relationship: PriceAboveMA5, PriceAboveMA20

   • Purpose: Select stocks trading above both the 5-day and 20-day moving averages.
   • Rationale: This is a short-term momentum filter. If price is above these moving averages, it suggests the stock is currently trending upward over both very short-term and near-term horizons, which fits a search for the best upside over the next week.

4. one_week_rise_prob: min 50

   • Purpose: Keep stocks with at least a 50% estimated probability of rising over the next week.
   • Rationale: This directly targets the user’s one-week upside focus by prioritizing stocks statistically more likely to move higher in the near term. It helps rank candidates with stronger short-term expected performance.

Why These Filters Work Together

• US narrows the universe to the correct market.
• Volume removes illiquid names and focuses on tradable stocks.
• Above MA5 and MA20 identifies short-term upward momentum.
• One-week rise probability aligns the screen with the user’s exact time horizon and upside objective.

In short: these filters are designed to surface U.S. stocks that are liquid, already showing positive momentum, and have a relatively stronger statistical chance of continuing higher over the next week.
