Top-Down Leaders

What it finds: US leaders that pass the playbook gate, hold above the EMA-20, and are still in a tight extension zone, so they are not chased. Their own sector fund must be Accelerating or Recovering, so the sector is gaining ground on the market, and their main fund's Trend (D+W) must be Strong or Improving, so the group's daily ranking trend is also rising. • Best market conditions: Risk-on tapes where leadership is intact. • Exact makeup: Region US, playbook gate on, ATR extension ≤ 1 (tight), ADR ≥ 2, above EMA-20, dollar volume ≥ $5M, earnings ≥ 5 days away, price ≥ $10, own sector fund rotation Accelerating or Recovering, main fund trend Strong or Improving, sorted top-down. Stocks with no published earnings date are kept, and show No date in the Earnings column, so check those yourself.
