Screening Filters
PriceAboveMA20 (Price above 20‑day moving average)
- Purpose: Identify stocks in a short-term uptrend.
- Rationale: For “short-term performance,” you generally want names where the current price is above a key short-term trend line. The 20‑day moving average is roughly one trading month; trading above it suggests recent momentum is positive rather than flat or declining.
RSI Category: Moderate
- Purpose: Avoid stocks that are extremely overbought or oversold.
- Rationale: A “moderate” RSI (neither very high nor very low) means the stock isn’t at an extreme where a sharp reversal is more likely. For short-term performance, this aims for stocks with positive potential that still have “room to run,” instead of those already overheated or in panic-sell territory.
1‑Week Price Change ≥ -3%
- Purpose: Filter out names that have been hit very hard in the last week.
- Rationale: A mild decline (no worse than -3%) or a gain over the last week suggests the stock has not been in a sharp short-term downtrend. For short-term picks, this avoids trying to catch steep falling knives, focusing instead on relatively stable/stronger recent behavior.
Region: US
- Purpose: Restrict the universe to U.S.-listed companies.
- Rationale: Your list (AAPL, AMZN, BABA, BAC, FB, GOOG, MSFT, NFLX, NVDA) is all U.S. stocks, so this filter ensures we stay within that same market, matching your original universe and its regulatory/liquidity environment.
Comparison Between Indicators – Price > EMA 20
- Purpose: Confirm short-term bullish momentum using an exponential moving average.
- Rationale: The EMA 20 reacts faster to recent price changes than a simple moving average. Requiring price > EMA 20 reinforces that the stock’s latest action is strong even by this more sensitive measure, which is particularly relevant when you care about the next few days/weeks.
One‑Week Rise Probability ≥ 55%
- Purpose: Focus on stocks with statistically higher odds of rising over the next week.
- Rationale: This uses a model/indicator that estimates the probability of a positive one-week return. Setting a floor at 55% biases the screen toward names with a better-than-coin-flip chance of short-term gains, which aligns directly with your request for short-term performance candidates.
Why Results Match Your Request
- The moving average and price>EMA filters jointly ensure the stocks are in a clear short-term uptrend, which is central to targeting near-term performance.
- The moderate RSI and limited recent drawdown avoid extreme conditions where short-term reversals are common, aiming for more sustainable momentum.
- The one-week rise probability explicitly targets names with higher modeled odds of gaining over your short-term horizon.
- The U.S. region filter keeps the analysis aligned with the U.S. stocks you specified, so any “top 3” picks are drawn from a comparable universe to your list.
