How a systematic trader uses this list
Momentum is bought on pullbacks and sold on failure, not on strength. The backtests behind these screens favour a trailing stop over a fixed target, because the gains come from the minority of trades that keep running. Size so that the trailing stop costs a fixed fraction of the account.
Questions
What is a momentum stock?
A stock whose recent returns are strong relative to its own history or to the market. The screens here use runs of higher closes, trend alignment and momentum regime changes as the rule.
