Screening Filters
region: United States
- Purpose: Limit results to U.S.-listed stocks.
- Rationale: You asked for “stocks in the US market,” so we restrict to U.S. companies or those primarily trading on U.S. markets.
list_exchange: XNYS, XNAS, XASE (NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX)
- Purpose: Focus on major U.S. exchanges.
- Rationale: These are the main U.S. stock exchanges, giving you more liquid, better-regulated names where price moves are more meaningful and tradable.
market_cap: min 2,000,000,000 (≥ $2B)
- Purpose: Include only mid/large-cap stocks.
- Rationale: Larger companies tend to be more stable and widely followed. When they turn bearish for the day, it’s more likely driven by substantial news or market sentiment instead of random, illiquid swings you often see in tiny micro-caps.
price_change_pct: max -3 (≤ -3%)
- Purpose: Capture stocks that are clearly down on the day.
- Rationale: A decline of at least 3% in one session is a strong negative move, which is consistent with a “bearish today” profile rather than just mild intraday noise.
moving_average_relationship: PriceBelowMA20
- Purpose: Ensure price is trading below the short-term trend (20-day moving average).
- Rationale: When price is below its 20-day MA, it suggests recent momentum is negative or weakening. Combining this with a down day reinforces a short-term bearish technical setup, not just a one-off dip in an uptrend.
rsi_category: moderate, oversold
- Purpose: Identify stocks with weak or pressured momentum.
- Rationale:
- Moderate RSI: Not yet oversold but showing weakness, indicating a developing or ongoing bearish move.
- Oversold RSI: Indicates strong selling pressure and extended downside move, consistent with bearish conditions today.
Including both allows capturing both fresh bearish moves and those already heavily sold.
relative_vol: min 1.5
- Purpose: Require higher than normal trading activity.
- Rationale: A relative volume ≥ 1.5 means today’s volume is at least 50% higher than typical. This suggests the bearish move is supported by significant participation, making the negative price action more credible and relevant.
Why Results Match “Bearish Today”
- The stocks are US-listed on major exchanges, matching your market constraint.
- They are down meaningfully on the day (≤ -3%), not just flat or slightly red.
- Price is below the 20-day moving average, aligning with a short-term bearish technical structure.
- RSI shows weakness or oversold conditions, confirming negative momentum rather than random noise.
- Elevated relative volume indicates that the bearish move is backed by strong trading interest, not thin, illiquid moves.
- The market-cap filter keeps the focus on more established names where these bearish signals are more reliable.
