Screening Stocks for High Amplitude, Two-Day Highs, and KDJ Crossovers
Summary
The document outlines a technical stock screen requiring price amplitude above 1%, a high equal to the highest high over two days, and a newly formed KDJ golden cross. It presents these conditions as a way to find stocks with active price movement, recent highs, and a possible upward turn. Formula and Python-style examples illustrate the conditions, while noting that implementation details depend on the platform.
The article warns that a KDJ crossover may signal only a short-lived rebound and that technical indicators can be unreliable during sharp market changes. It proposes considering additional technical, fundamental, and sentiment inputs, but does not define those additions in a reproducible way. No backtest, trading rules, or return evidence is provided, so the screen’s potential is asserted rather than demonstrated.
Key ideas
- The screen requires amplitude above 1% and a two-day highest high.
- It also requires a newly formed bullish KDJ crossover.
- The article describes the signal as a possible upward move, not a guarantee of continuation.
- It warns that technical-only screening may fail in rapidly changing markets.
- No backtest or performance evidence is presented.
