Stocks currently have golden cross

Screening Filters

1. PriceCrossAboveMA200

   • Purpose: Find stocks where the current price has recently crossed above the 200-day moving average.
   • Rationale:
     • A classic golden cross is when a short-term MA (e.g., 50-day) crosses above a long-term MA (e.g., 200-day).
     • While we don’t have a direct “50-day MA crossing 200-day MA” filter available, a fresh price move above the 200-day MA is still a strong bullish technical signal that often occurs near the time of, or in the same general phase as, a golden-cross-type transition (from long-term downtrend/sideways to uptrend).
     • This filter therefore aims to capture stocks where long-term trend conditions are turning more positive, similar to what traders look for with a golden cross.

2. PriceAboveMA20

   • Purpose: Ensure that the stock’s current price is above its 20-day moving average.
   • Rationale:
     • The 20-day MA is a short-term trend indicator; price above this line indicates near-term strength and momentum.
     • A genuine golden cross requires the short-term trend to be stronger than the long-term trend. By requiring the price to be above a short-term MA, we bias the results toward stocks already showing short-term bullish behavior, which is consistent with the spirit of a golden cross setup (shorter time frame turning up).

Why Results Match (and What’s Missing)

• We do not have a direct filter for the exact golden cross pattern (e.g., “50-day MA crossing above 200-day MA”). The platform you’re using doesn’t support a moving-average-versus–moving-average crossover condition in this screen; it only supports conditions between price and a moving average.
• To approximate your request, the screener:
  • Uses PriceCrossAboveMA200 to flag stocks where the price has just reclaimed a key long-term level, often happening around broader trend reversals.
  • Adds PriceAboveMA20 to ensure the stock is in a short-term uptrend, aligning with the idea of a strengthening shorter-term trend relative to the longer-term backdrop.

So while the filters do not strictly identify textbook golden crosses (short MA crossing above long MA), they are still effective for surfacing stocks that are in a similar bullish transition phase: regaining long-term strength and showing short-term momentum.
