List stocks within a 33 SMA

Screening Filters

1. moving_average_relationship: ['PriceAboveMA20', 'PriceBelowMA20']

   • Purpose: To use a moving-average–based condition as a proxy for your request about stocks “trading within a 33 SMA.”
   • Rationale:
     • You asked for stocks trading around their 33‑period simple moving average (SMA).
     • Our screener does not support a 33‑period SMA or a “within X% of the SMA” condition. It only offers a 20‑period moving average on the daily timeframe, and only as above or below that average.
     • Because of that limitation, your colleague attempted to bring in the available moving-average tool: the 20‑day MA relationship.
     • However, having both PriceAboveMA20 and PriceBelowMA20 active at the same time effectively means “price can be either above or below the 20‑day MA,” which does not restrict the universe in a meaningful way. It does not approximate “trading within” the moving average band, and it does not replicate a 33‑period SMA.

2. list_exchange: ['XNYS', 'XNAS', 'XASE']

   • Purpose: Limit results to liquid, widely followed U.S. exchanges: NYSE, Nasdaq, and NYSE American.
   • Rationale:
     • Ensures the output focuses on major U.S.-listed stocks, which typically have better liquidity, tighter spreads, and more reliable price/volume data.
     • This doesn’t address your SMA request directly, but it keeps the universe focused on names most traders and investors actually can trade efficiently.

Why Results (Partially) Match and Where They Don’t

• What does not match your request:

  • You specifically asked for stocks “trading within a 33 SMA.”
  • Our screener does not support a 33‑period SMA or a band such as “within X%/X points of the SMA,” and it’s also not configured for the weekly timeframe in this query.
  • The current moving-average filters (PriceAboveMA20 and PriceBelowMA20) do not recreate this condition. In practice, enabling both means there is no true MA-based restriction being applied.

• What is still useful:

  • You are still getting U.S.-listed stocks on major exchanges (XNYS, XNAS, XASE), which is typically where traders look for technical setups like moving-average interactions.
  • Although the system can’t directly screen for “trading within the 33 SMA,” you can:
    • Use the returned list as a starting universe, and
    • Then manually check on your charting platform which of those names are actually trading close to their 33‑period SMA on the weekly (or desired) chart.

If you’d like, we can refine the search in a different way that is supported (for example, only PriceAboveMA20 or only PriceBelowMA20, or add liquidity/size filters), and then you can overlay your 33‑SMA condition manually on charts.
