Screening Metaverse Stocks Above a Moving Average and Below a Price Limit
Summary
The document describes a simple equity screen focused on stocks associated with the metaverse theme. It proposes selecting names whose price is above a moving average and below a fixed price ceiling, interpreting the moving average condition as a sign of upward movement and the price ceiling as a way to find inexpensive shares. It also gives an indicator expression and sample Python screening logic, making the post useful as an example of translating a thematic idea into filters.
The document does not provide backtest results or evidence that the screen produces favorable returns. It explicitly notes that a low share price does not establish that a company is undervalued, and that valuation differs across businesses. It recommends supplementing the technical and price filters with fundamentals such as profitability and valuation measures, and adjusting the valuation threshold for the specific company. The post contains an inconsistency: its opening description gives one price limit, while later formulas use another, and the Python example applies a different moving average window than the stated five day rule. Those differences need resolving before implementation.
Key ideas
- The screen targets metaverse related equities using a trend condition and a fixed share price ceiling.
- A price below a chosen threshold does not by itself show that a stock is undervalued.
- The post recommends adding company fundamentals and company specific valuation analysis.
- The description, formula, and example code do not use fully consistent thresholds or moving average periods.
