A Metaverse Stock Screen Using Positive Returns and Prior-Day Turnover

Summary

The proposed short-term equity screen focuses on stocks classified in the metaverse theme. It requires a positive return and prior-day trading activity above 60 million in the document’s stated units. The author presents the activity threshold as a way to favor more active and liquid candidates, then suggests combining it with other technical indicators and fundamental analysis.

The post gives formula and code references for applying the filters, but it does not report backtest results or show that the criteria predict returns. It cautions that price and turnover filters alone omit company fundamentals and macroeconomic conditions. Large turnover can also reflect block trades rather than broad market demand, and the approach is described as more suited to short-term trading than long-term investing. The post recommends considering turnover alongside price change and turnover rate, and examining trade size and business quality before making selections.

Key ideas

• The universe is stocks associated with the metaverse theme.
