Screening Filters
Price: min = 5, max = 10
- Purpose: Restrict results to stocks trading between $5 and $10 per share.
- Rationale:
- You specifically asked for “stocks priced between $5 and $10.”
- This filter enforces that price range directly, excluding penny stocks (<$5) and higher‑priced names (> $10), so the results focus exactly on your target price band.
Price Change % (on the day): min = 5
- Purpose: Capture stocks that are “surging” by requiring at least a +5% gain on the current trading day.
- Rationale:
- “Surging” is interpreted as a strong move up in price. A daily gain of 5% or more is a meaningful move for most listed stocks and is a common threshold used to flag “big movers” or “gainers.”
- This filter eliminates flat or mildly up names and highlights those with significant positive momentum during the day.
Exchange List: ['XNYS', 'XNAS', 'XASE']
- Purpose: Limit results to stocks listed on the major U.S. exchanges:
- XNYS = NYSE
- XNAS = NASDAQ
- XASE = NYSE American (formerly AMEX)
- Rationale:
- You did not specify an exchange, so the screener defaults to the main U.S. markets where liquidity, reporting standards, and data quality are generally higher.
- This avoids thinly traded OTC or pink-sheet securities that can be very volatile or illiquid, and keeps the results focused on more established listings.
Why Results Match Your Request
- Your price requirement (“between $5 and $10”) is matched exactly by the price min/max filter.
- Your desire for stocks that are “surging” is operationalized via the price_change_pct ≥ 5% filter, which targets strong gainers on the day.
- The “on Tuesday” part is addressed indirectly:
- Screeners typically apply daily percent change for the current trading day.
- If you run this screen on a Tuesday, the price_change_pct will reflect Tuesday’s move, effectively finding the stocks that are surging on Tuesday.
- We do not have a separate filter that explicitly says “only show moves on Tuesday” (by weekday name). Instead, we always look at the most recent trading day’s move, which is what you want when you ask this question on that specific day.
In summary, while we don’t have a special “Tuesday” indicator, the combination of:
- price between $5–$10, and
- at least +5% daily move on the current day,
on major U.S. exchanges, effectively screens for “stocks priced between $5 and $10 that are surging today (i.e., this Tuesday).”
