Screening Filters
RSI Category: ['overbought', 'moderate']
- Purpose: Find stocks whose recent price action is strong enough to be considered overbought, or at least elevated, on a technical basis.
- Rationale:
- RSI (Relative Strength Index) is one of the primary tools traders use to label a stock as “overbought” or “oversold.”
- Including
overbought directly targets the “overbought companies” you asked for.
- Including
moderate widens the net a bit to catch stocks that are close to overbought but not yet at extreme levels, so you see more candidates that are strong and possibly approaching overbought.
Moving Average Relationship: ['PriceAboveMA20']
- Purpose: Ensure the stock’s current price is above its 20-day moving average, confirming short‑term upward momentum.
- Rationale:
- Overbought conditions usually happen during strong uptrends.
- Requiring price to be above the 20-day MA filters for stocks that are not only strong on RSI, but also technically trending upward, which is consistent with an “overbought” profile.
1-Month Price Change %: {'min': '8'}
- Purpose: Require that the stock has risen at least 8% over the last month.
- Rationale:
- A meaningful short‑term gain supports the idea that the stock has had a strong recent rally.
- Strong recent gains plus high/medium RSI and price above MA20 together are classic conditions for a stock to be considered overbought or at least “heated.”
Sector: ['Consumer Non-Cyclicals', 'Consumer Cyclicals', 'Software & IT Services', 'Technology', 'Technology Equipment', 'Retailers', 'Industrial Goods', 'Industrial & Commercial Services']
- Purpose: Focus on sectors where home security–related companies are most likely to be found.
- Rationale:
- Home security players often sit in:
- Technology / Technology Equipment / Software & IT Services (smart home security systems, SaaS monitoring, IoT devices).
- Consumer Cyclicals / Retailers / Consumer Non-Cyclicals (consumer-facing security products, cameras, alarm systems, smart locks sold through retail channels).
- Industrial Goods / Industrial & Commercial Services (commercial and residential security hardware, installation and monitoring services).
- This keeps the focus on industries that plausibly overlap with home security and smart home ecosystems while searching for overbought names.
Themes: ['Technology', 'The Internet of Things', 'Software as a Service', 'Home Improvement', 'Electronic Components', 'Consumer Electronics']
- Purpose: Further refine to business themes strongly associated with home security and smart home systems.
- Rationale:
- The Internet of Things (IoT) and Consumer Electronics: many home security systems are IoT-enabled cameras, sensors, doorbells, locks, etc.
- Home Improvement: covers companies involved in home infrastructure and upgrades where security products are sold or installed.
- Software as a Service: subscription-based monitoring and management platforms for security systems.
- Technology / Electronic Components: underlying hardware and tech behind cameras, sensors, connectivity, and smart devices.
- Using themes in addition to sectors helps zoom in on companies that are more specifically aligned with home/security and smart-home ecosystems, not just generic tech or retail.
Listed Exchange: ['XNYS', 'XNAS', 'XASE']
- Purpose: Limit results to major U.S. exchanges (NYSE, NASDAQ, NYSE American).
- Rationale:
- Aligns with your previous U.S.-focused search.
- Ensures better liquidity, reporting standards, and data reliability compared to OTC or foreign exchanges.
Why Results Match Your Request
- You asked to “look for overbought companies” after previously looking for cheap/oversold home security plays.
- The new screen removes “cheap value” filters (like low P/E or P/S) and instead uses:
- RSI (overbought/moderate)
- Price above 20-day moving average
- Minimum +8% 1‑month price performance
Together, these are classic indicators of potentially overbought, momentum-driven stocks.
- Sector and theme filters are tailored to industries and themes where home security and smart/home‑security–adjacent companies are likely to exist, maintaining relevance to your original home security interest while shifting the focus from “cheap/oversold” to “strong/overbought.”
