Give me your top pick

Screening Filters

1. market_cap ≥ $10B

   • Purpose: Focus on larger, more established companies.
   • Rationale: For a “top stock pick today,” you typically want names with solid business foundations, better liquidity, and lower idiosyncratic risk than very small caps. A $10B+ threshold screens out highly speculative micro/small caps that could be too risky for a primary conviction idea.

2. market_cap_category: mega, large

   • Purpose: Reinforce the focus on big, liquid companies.
   • Rationale: Explicitly targeting large and mega caps helps ensure that candidates are widely followed, have ample trading volume, and are less prone to manipulation—more suitable for a “best idea” type pick rather than a lottery-ticket stock.

3. moving_average_relationship: PriceAboveMA20, PriceAboveMA200

   • Purpose: Require both short-term and long-term uptrends.
   • Rationale:
     • PriceAboveMA200: Signals a positive long-term trend; the stock is in a bullish primary trend rather than a downtrend or recovery phase.
     • PriceAboveMA20: Confirms recent short-term momentum; the stock is not only structurally strong, but also acting well right now.
       Together, these filters surface stocks with consistent technical strength, aligning with the idea of being “most bullish” on them today.

4. list_exchange: XNYS, XNAS, XASE (major U.S. exchanges)

   • Purpose: Limit results to major, regulated U.S. exchanges.
   • Rationale: New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq, and NYSE American are highly regulated with strong disclosure requirements and high liquidity. For a top pick, you generally want transparent companies that most investors can easily trade.

5. one_month_predict_return ≥ 15%

   • Purpose: Emphasize strong model‑estimated upside over the next month.
   • Rationale: Since you asked for what I’m “most bullish about today,” this filter leans on a quantitative prediction model to only include stocks where the forecasted 1‑month return is meaningfully positive. A ≥15% threshold is quite demanding, so it narrows the field to names with standout upside potential, according to the model.

6. analyst_consensus: Strong Buy

   • Purpose: Align with Wall Street’s highest conviction ideas.
   • Rationale: “Strong Buy” generally means multiple analysts rate the stock at the top of their scale with meaningful upside to target prices. Combining this with the quantitative return filter ensures that candidates are not just strong technically and in models, but also have robust fundamental backing from professional analysts—fitting for a “top pick.”

Why Results Match Your Question

• The screen favors high‑quality, liquid large/mega caps, appropriate for a primary “top pick” rather than speculative plays.
• It demands confirmed uptrends (both short- and long-term), aligning with being bullish today, not just on a long‑shot turnaround.
• It uses a high bar for predicted 1‑month returns, consistent with seeking the most attractive opportunity right now.
• It layers on Strong Buy analyst consensus, so candidates are supported by fundamental research as well as technical and quantitative signals.

Together, these filters are designed to surface a small set of high‑conviction, institutionally credible stocks from which a single “top pick today” could reasonably be chosen.
