High Tight Flag / enger Bull Flag nach Kullamägi-Lehre: Voraussetzung ist ein großer Vorlauf-Move (≥ 50 % in rund 2 Monaten). Danach zieht sich die Aktie eng zusammen — die letzten 10 Schlusskurse liegen in einer Spanne von höchstens 15 % — und 'surft' dabei dicht an der steigenden 10-Tage-Linie (≤ 4 % Abstand), während das Volumen abnimmt. Das ist die straffste Variante der Fortsetzungs-Basis: höhere Tiefs und Volatilitätskontraktion direkt vor dem nächsten Ausbruch. Mit Liquiditätsfilter (Kurs > 3 $, Ø-$-Volumen > 2 Mio).

Global filters: market cap of $50B or less (mega caps are cut from every scanner); 10- and 30-day ADR must be ≥ 1% (too little movement gets cut); names after a reverse split (distorted price history) and names with a red Stress RS (rating ≤ 30 — weak on stress days) are excluded.

Terms in This Scanner Explained

(21)
ADR (Average Daily Range)
The average daily swing of a stock in percent - measured over 10 or 30 trading days (columns "ADR 10D/30D"). An ADR of 5% means: on a normal day the gap between the intraday low and high runs about 5%. Traders look for movement - that is why stocks with an ADR under 1% are filtered out globally. Not to be confused with ADR meaning "American Depositary Receipt" (a US certificate for foreign shares) - here ADR always means the daily swing.
AI Classification
Our company-by-company assessment of the AI boom based on SEC filings (the last four quarterly 10-Q reports and two annual 10-K reports): "Sells AI" (AI is a revenue source), "Threatened" (AI is a concrete business risk), "Uses AI" (operational use), or "Neutral" (no material AI exposure). Every classification requires at least two direct quote citations - otherwise the column shows "-". Not a quality judgment or a buy recommendation; the full file is on the stock page, methodology at /stocks/ai-rating-methodology.
Analysis (Full Company Analysis)
If the Analysis column shows "Read," there is an in-depth TickerGuard company analysis for this stock: business model, scanner findings, quarterly results, evidence from SEC filings, plus opportunities and risks. One click opens it directly.
Avg/Yr 3Y (Average Annual Return)
The stock's average annual return over the past 3 years. Shows at a glance whether a stock delivers over the long run or just had a short hot streak.
Base / Consolidation
A pause in the chart: after a rally, the stock trades sideways for weeks in a range, ideally with higher lows and shrinking volume. The most durable breakouts come out of such bases - the quieter the base, the better.
Breakout
The price clears a level where it previously failed multiple times (top of a base, an old high) - ideally on clearly elevated volume. For many momentum strategies, the breakout is the actual buy signal.
Dollar Volume
Shares traded x price = how much money flows through the stock per day. An average dollar volume of $2 million or more makes sure you can also get back out without moving the price yourself - the single most important liquidity filter.
Earnings Date
The date of the next quarterly earnings report. Price gaps in either direction are common around this date - that is why we color it red when it is 7 days away or less, and yellow when it is 14 days away or less: elevated risk for fresh positions.
EPS (Earnings per Share)
Quarterly earnings divided by the number of shares outstanding. The most important growth metric: if EPS rises strongly over several quarters, the company is earning more money per share.
Free Cash Flow (FCF)
Operating cash flow minus capital expenditures - the money left over for everything else (debt paydown, acquisitions, or buybacks). Consistently positive free cash flow is one of the most honest signs of a healthy business model.
Funda Rating (Fundamental Rating A+ to F)
Our proprietary fundamental rating from 0 to 100 points with a school-grade rank from A+ to F. 50 points is the average across the universe, 100 the best possible score. Every stock is scored against all others by percentile: growth in earnings and revenue, earnings surprises, analyst estimates, and quality criteria such as margins, cash flow, and balance-sheet strength. Grades: A+ from 95, A from 75, B from 55, C from 45, D from 25, E from 5, F below — A/A+ are the fundamentally strongest stocks in the universe.
Liquidity
How easily a stock can be bought and sold without moving the price - measured by (dollar) volume. Illiquid stocks have wide spreads and jerky prices; that is why almost every scanner applies a minimum liquidity filter.
Market Capitalization (Mkt Cap)
The market value of the company: share price x total shares outstanding, shown here in billions of dollars. Micro caps (< $0.3B) are small and volatile, mega caps (> $200B) are heavyweights. Our scanner universe is deliberately capped at $50B - we look for stocks with room to run.
Net Margin
How much of revenue is left as profit? Net income divided by revenue, in percent. A 20% margin means: out of every dollar of revenue, 20 cents is left as profit. Rising margins are a strong quality signal.
Operating Cash Flow (OCF)
The cash that actually flows into the company from day-to-day operations - without accounting effects such as depreciation. A company can report book profits while still burning cash; operating cash flow reveals that.
Piotroski F-Score
A balance-sheet health check developed by Joseph Piotroski: 9 yes/no criteria covering earnings, cash flow, leverage, and efficiency produce a score from 0 to 9. Scores of 7 or higher are considered financially very solid, scores under 3 a warning sign.
Sector & Industry
Two levels of industry classification: sector is broad (e.g., Technology), industry is narrow (e.g., Semiconductors). Many strategies watch industry strength, because strong stocks are almost always found in strong industries.
SMA / Moving Average (10-, 20-, 50-, 200-Day Line)
The average price of the last X days, plotted as a line on the chart (Simple Moving Average). The 50-day and 200-day lines are the most closely watched: price above the line = uptrend intact. The 30-week line from the Weinstein method corresponds to the 150-day line.
Stage (Weinstein Stages 1-4)
Stan Weinstein divides every price chart into four stages: Stage 1 = basing (sideways after a downtrend), Stage 2 = uptrend (the only buying stage), Stage 3 = topping, Stage 4 = downtrend (avoid, or short candidate). Measured against the 30-week line (150-day moving average) and its slope.
Stress RS (Strength on Stress Days)
A stress day is a day on which both the overall market and the stock's own sector fell at least 0.5%. Stress RS counts on how many of these days the stock still closed green (shown as "g/n" = green days out of n stress days) and turns that into a rating from 1 to 99. High values point to buyers stepping in even on weak days - often a sign of institutional accumulation.
Volatility Contraction (VCP)
Price swings get tighter from wave to wave - the stock "calms down," often on falling volume. This tightening (Volatility Contraction Pattern, coined by Mark Minervini) shows a balance between supply and demand and often precedes powerful breakouts.
