Us stocks golden cross

Screening Filters

1. moving_average_relationship: PriceCrossAboveMA200

   • Purpose: Select stocks where the current price has recently crossed above the 200‑day moving average.
   • Rationale:
     • A “golden cross” is technically when the 50‑day moving average crosses above the 200‑day moving average (MA50 > MA200), which our screener does not directly support as an indicator.
     • Since we cannot screen for MA vs MA crossovers, we instead use price crossing above the 200‑day MA as a practical proxy for a strong bullish shift in trend.
     • When price moves above its 200‑day MA, it often occurs in the same general phase of a trend as a golden cross: transitioning from a bearish/sideways regime toward a more sustained uptrend.
     • So although this is not a true golden cross filter, it still finds stocks exhibiting a major bullish technical development consistent with what traders often look for when they say “golden cross” in a more casual sense.

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

   • Purpose: Restrict the results to U.S.-listed stocks only.
   • Rationale:
     • You asked for “US stocks”, so the screener is limited to major U.S. exchanges:
       • XNAS – NASDAQ
       • XNYS – NYSE
       • XASE – NYSE American (formerly AMEX)
     • This ensures you only see companies that are traded in the U.S. market, in line with your request.

Do the Filters Exactly Match “Golden Cross”?

• Not exactly. A strict golden cross requires:
  • 50‑day MA crossing above 200‑day MA (MA50 cross up MA200).
• Our system, in this query, only uses:
  • PriceCrossAboveMA200 (price vs MA, not MA vs MA).

Because the platform does not support direct MA‑to‑MA crossover filters (like 50 MA crossing 200 MA), we cannot screen for a textbook golden cross. Instead, we use price crossing above the 200‑day MA as a closely related bullish trend filter.

Why the Results Still Align With Your Goal

• You want U.S. stocks in a strong bullish technical phase similar to a golden cross event.
• The filters provide that by:
  • Focusing on US exchanges only.
  • Highlighting stocks where price just moved above the 200‑day MA, which is a common signal of a major trend improvement and often coincides with or precedes the kind of environment where golden crosses appear.
