Screening Filters
Price: min 0.20, max 5
- Purpose: Focus on penny stocks.
- Rationale: “Penny stocks” are commonly defined as low-priced shares, often under $5. Setting the range to $0.20–$5 removes ultra-micro-priced tickers (below 20 cents, often extremely illiquid or distressed) while still capturing the core penny-stock universe.
Monthly Average Dollar Volume: min $2,000,000
- Purpose: Ensure sufficient liquidity.
- Rationale: Penny stocks can be very thinly traded. Requiring at least $2M in average dollar volume over the month helps avoid names where it’s hard to get in or out without moving the price, making the list more practical for trading.
RSI Category: “moderate”
- Purpose: Find stocks with bullish potential that are not extremely overbought.
- Rationale: A “moderate” RSI typically excludes very overbought conditions (where a sharp pullback is more likely) and very oversold (where a clear bullish move may not have started yet). This leans toward healthier, sustainable bullish setups rather than exhausted spikes.
Moving Average Relationship: PriceAboveMA20
- Purpose: Capture stocks in an established short-term uptrend.
- Rationale: When price is above the 20-day moving average, it indicates recent momentum is upward. This is a classic technical sign of a bullish trend rather than just a one-off bounce.
Price Change % (Today): min +8%
- Purpose: Identify stocks showing strong bullish action today.
- Rationale: A minimum 8% gain flags names with notable intraday strength, aligning directly with “bullish today” rather than just generally uptrending over weeks or months.
Region: United States
- Purpose: Restrict to U.S.-listed stocks.
- Rationale: Ensures the results are from a single, well-regulated market with consistent reporting and trading hours, and aligns with many users’ focus on U.S. penny stocks.
Exchange: XNYS (NYSE), XNAS (NASDAQ), XASE (AMEX)
- Purpose: Limit to major U.S. exchanges.
- Rationale: Many penny stocks trade OTC, where risks and opacity are higher. Restricting to major exchanges helps improve listing quality, disclosure standards, and trading reliability while still finding lower-priced names.
Why Results Match “Bullish Penny Stocks Today”
- The price filter explicitly targets the penny stock price range.
- The dollar-volume filter keeps only actively traded names, making them more realistic trading candidates.
- RSI “moderate” + PriceAboveMA20 focuses on stocks in an uptrend without being extremely overbought—consistent with a constructive bullish technical profile.
- The ≥ 8% daily price gain ensures the stocks are showing clear bullish strength today, not just historically.
- Restricting to U.S. major exchanges narrows the universe to better-regulated penny stocks that are more accessible and transparent.
