This screener attempts to find good "buy" candidates. A good buy candidate is defined as a stock that is oversold in the short term but trending up in the longer term. The RSI is used to find those stocks that are considered to be oversold where as the expediential moving average are used to determine if there is a longer term trend.
Investopedia defines oversold as
1. A condition in which the price of an underlying asset has fallen sharply, and to a level below which its true value resides. This condition is usually a result of market overreaction or panic selling.
2. A situation in technical analysis where the price of an asset has fallen to such a degree - usually on high volume - that an oscillator has reached a lower bound. This is generally interpreted as a sign that the price of the asset is becoming undervalued and may represent a buying opportunity for investors.
The RSI Indicator is a good tool to help identify overbought/ oversold conditions, divergences, and crossovers that investors use to identify new trends in a stock or the market. Known as the Relative Strength Index, the RSI was developed by J. Welles Wilder in 1978 to measure the relative strength of price currently compared to its price history over a set number of periods.
To reduce risk, a number of additional filters have been incorporated into the screener. These include
1) Price
2) Volume
3) Market
4) Industry
Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
