Metaverse Stock Screen Using a Fresh KDJ Cross and Rising MACD Spread

Summary

This article proposes screening stocks in the metaverse industry for a newly formed bullish KDJ crossover, alongside a rising signal described as DEA. Its code examples calculate KDJ with a nine-period setting and smoothing parameters of three, identify a crossover by comparing current and previous K and D values, then use a MACD calculation to filter candidates. The intended idea is to find short-term upward momentum within a selected industry.

The document notes that these are short-horizon indicators, that volatile price action can destabilize selection, and that a rapid rise may expose traders to reversal risk. It suggests adding a longer-term trend measure and stop-loss rules, and periodically reviewing the method. No backtest or performance results are included. The written rule and examples also use inconsistent terminology for the second filter: the explanation refers to rising DEA, while the code compares MACD’s difference line with its signal line. That ambiguity should be resolved before implementation.

Key ideas

• The proposed universe is stocks classified in the metaverse industry.
• The screen seeks a newly formed bullish KDJ crossover and a positive MACD-related condition.
• The code detects the crossover by checking that K moves above D after being below it.
• The article warns that short-term indicators can be unstable and do not establish long-run trends.
• The stated DEA condition differs from the code’s MACD line comparison, and no performance evidence is given.
