Bullish stocks today

Screening Filters

1. Market Cap ≥ $2,000,000,000

   • Purpose: Focus on mid- to large-cap U.S. companies.
   • Rationale: Bigger companies tend to have more reliable price/volume data and less manipulation than micro-caps. For identifying “bullish trends,” it’s more useful to look at stocks where moves are driven by real institutional interest rather than thin liquidity.

2. Relative Volume ≥ 1.5

   • Purpose: Capture stocks trading with significantly higher activity than usual today.
   • Rationale: A relative volume of 1.5 means today’s trading volume is at least 50% higher than the stock’s average. Strong bullish moves are more meaningful when they are supported by heavier-than-normal volume, suggesting real conviction behind the buying.

3. PriceAboveMA20 (Price above 20-day moving average)

   • Purpose: Ensure the stock is in a short-term uptrend.
   • Rationale: The 20-day moving average is a common short-term trend line. When price is above the MA20, it indicates recent price action is stronger than the recent average, a classic sign of a bullish trend rather than just a one-off spike.

4. RSI Category: “moderate” or “overbought”

   • Purpose: Find stocks with strong momentum, but not deeply oversold.
   • Rationale:
     • Moderate RSI: Suggests healthy upward momentum without being extremely stretched.
     • Overbought RSI: Often associated with strong bullish runs where buyers are in control. Including both lets you capture ongoing uptrends at different stages of strength.

5. Price Change % ≥ 1.5% (today)

   • Purpose: Require a meaningful positive price move today.
   • Rationale: A gain of at least 1.5% filters out flat or marginal moves, ensuring that the stocks are actually moving up in a noticeable way today, aligning directly with “showing bullish trends today.”

6. Exchange: XNYS, XNAS, XASE (NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX)

   • Purpose: Limit results to major U.S. stock exchanges.
   • Rationale: The user asked about the “US stock market,” and these are the main U.S. exchanges. This also ensures better liquidity, tighter spreads, and higher-quality listings.
