Screening

Every weekday, we screen ~2,700 US-traded stocks with market cap above $1B. Stocks must pass:

  • Price above 50-day EMA (trend confirmation)
  • Positive weekly gain (momentum)
  • Sorted by composite momentum score: MACD histogram (35%) + 20-day rate of change (30%) + volume ratio (25%) + EMA spread (10%)

Technical Analysis

Each stock gets a full technical workup:

  • Fibonacci retracements (0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618) from the 6-month swing for support levels
  • Fibonacci extensions (1.272, 1.618) for exit targets
  • 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages
  • 14-day RSI and MACD histogram
  • Volume ratio vs 20-day average
  • 20-day high/low for immediate support/resistance

Claude’s Analysis

Claude Opus 4.6 receives the screener data, technicals, news headlines, and WSB sentiment. It generates:

  • Thesis per stock — combining fundamental catalyst with technical setup
  • Exit target — referenced to specific fib levels, prior resistance, or analyst targets
  • Support/stop — fib retracements, SMAs, or 20-day lows
  • Top Picks — 3-5 highest conviction swing trades
  • Avoid list — overextended or weak-catalyst names
  • WSB Sentiment Check — agrees or disagrees with retail consensus

Paper Trading Rules

  • Starting capital: $10,000
  • Position sizing: 20% per pick (max 5 positions)
  • Auto-sell at exit target (fib extension) or stop loss (fib support)
  • If no cash for new picks, sells the weakest performer
  • Checked twice daily: 10:02 AM (buy + exit check) and 3:55 PM (exit check)
  • No manual intervention — fully automated
