| description | Daily market recap + convergence-ranked stock shortlist for TraderDaddy Pro. Runs ALL screeners at default settings, pulls the biggest options flows / smart money, new CBOE option listings, and hedge-fund (13F) activity, then finds the short list of names that multiple independent sources agree on โ with technicals. Use when the user asks to "find good stocks", wants a "market recap", "what's flowing", "what are the funds doing", "run the screeners", "any setups", or "what should I be looking at" for trading ideas. |
Stock Recap โ convergence-ranked picks
This skill produces a market recap and a short list of stocks the data agrees on,
each with technicals. It pulls four independent legs and ranks names by how many of
them point at the same ticker (equal-blend convergence):
- Screeners โ all 10 TraderDaddy Pro screeners at their default settings
(Momentum Pullback, Gamma Scan, Coiled Springs, Daily Cuts, CSP Wheel, LEAPS,
Leveraged, Small-Cap, Volatility Surge, Bullish Pullback).
- Options flow โ the biggest premium / smart-money unusual activity today,
including the
INSTITUTIONAL_ALPHA tier and repeat-strike conviction.
- Bounce finder โ TD Pro's
/api/agent/bounce-finder. bounce_bottom =
oversold name curling up (a second, independent read on Mike's reversal edge);
bounce_top = overbought exhaustion (tracked as a conflict, not a bullish leg).
- Earnings gaps โ TD Pro's
/api/earnings-gap. Bullish gap-ups that are
holding (positive intraday, not filling back through the open) count as a
momentum leg; fading or bearish gaps are context/conflict only.
- New CBOE option listings โ names that just became optionable.
- Hedge funds (13F) โ TickerTrace top buys/sells, cross-fund convergence
(multiple funds into the same name), and divergences.
It also renders candlestick charts (from our own 90-day OHLC data) for the
top picks + reversal names and a dedicated under-$100 section so the list
isn't all $700+ mega-caps.
Mike's edge: his best picks come from Momentum Pullback names once they
START reversing out of the pullback. The script has a dedicated Reversal
Watch section that flags pullback names with a fresh stochastic crossover up
from oversold + bullish RSI zone + A/B entry grade, and marks which of those
already have bullish flow and fund buying behind them. Always call this out.
How to run it
-
Run the gather script (works from any directory โ the absolute path resolves
the symlink back into the mphinance repo, so the API key and chart venv are
found automatically):
node "$HOME/.claude/skills/stock-recap/scripts/gather.mjs"
It writes a timestamped folder under stock-recap/runs/<date_time>/
containing report.md (the full recap) and raw/*.json (every raw API pull,
for backtesting or a deeper look). It also prints the report to stdout and a
final JSON line with {reportPath, rawDir, shortlist, health}.
- Takes ~30โ90s (screeners are the slow part; they're cached 5 min server-side).
- No setup needed: it auto-reads
AGENT_API_KEY from the repo-root
.env_agent_api, hits production (Railway + TickerTrace), and presents a
browser User-Agent (the edge WAF 403s the bare Node UA).
The script auto-renders charts as part of the run (it shells out to the skill's
Python venv โ .venv/bin/python scripts/render_chart.py). No separate step.
-
Read the generated report.md (the path is in the script's final output).
-
Open every chart PNG listed in the report's "๐ Charts rendered"
section with the Read tool and look at each one. The chart is 90-day candles +
EMA 8/21/55 + SMA200 + volume + RSI. For each, judge: trend direction and
strength, where price sits vs the fast EMAs (pullback to support vs extended),
any structure (breakout, base, blow-off/exhaustion wick, lower-high rollover).
The visual read often overrides the indicator table โ e.g. a name can rank
high on flow but the chart shows a parabolic blow-off you should not chase.
-
Present a tight, plain-English recap to Mike โ don't just dump the file.
Lead with what matters:
- The 2โ4 highest-conviction names (most aligned legs, no conflict), with
their key technicals, what their chart shows, and why they're interesting.
- The Reversal Watch โ any Momentum Pullback names turning up, especially
ones with flow ๐ข and fund โ
confirmation (his setup). Use the charts to
confirm the turn is real.
- The ๐ช Bounce Finder โ fresh
bounce_bottom oversold turns. A name in
both Bounce Finder and Reversal Watch (or with flow/fund confirm) is the
strongest oversold-turn โ two independent scanners agreeing.
- The ๐ Earnings Gaps โ bullish gap-ups, but check the intraday column:
holding (โ
) is momentum, fading (โ ๏ธ) is a trap. These have been some of
Mike's best trades โ always surface the holders.
- The ๐ต Under-$100 picks โ Mike specifically wants accessible names, not
just $700+ mega-caps. Always surface a few.
- A one-line flow/fund tone read (net bullish vs bearish premium; what the
funds are buying/selling; any notable cross-fund convergence).
- โ ๏ธ Conflicts โ names where bullish sources disagree with bearish flow or
fund selling (e.g. funds buying but options heavily bearish). Flag, don't bury.
- New CBOE listings only if there's something worth noting.
-
Point Mike at the saved report.md for the full tables/charts, and mention the
raw/ JSON is there if he wants to dig in or backtest.
Tuning (optional env vars)
RECAP_SHORTLIST=20 โ shortlist size (default 15).
RECAP_MAX_PRICE=50 โ cutoff for the under-$N affordable section (default 100).
RECAP_TIMEOUT_MS=90000 โ per-request timeout (default 60s).
TD_API_URL / TICKERTRACE_API_URL โ override base URLs (e.g. point at
http://localhost:3001 for a local backend).
Notes / gotchas
- Convergence is directional. Only bullish-aligned legs (screener hit, bullish
flow, fund buying, cross-fund buying, new-CBOE) add to a name's score. Bearish
flow or fund selling against a bullish name is recorded as a conflict, not
agreement, and is penalised in the ranking. This is a long-idea finder.
- Technicals enrichment: names that arrive via flow/funds only (no technical
screener) are back-filled from
/api/agent/ticker/:symbol (RSI, ADX, EMA stack,
call/put walls, expected move). Stochastic isn't available there, so the Stoch
column shows โ for those.
- 13F data is TickerTrace, not TD Pro's
/api/institutional/* (the agent key
is scoped to /api/agent/* and can't reach it). If TickerTrace is down, the
hedge-fund leg degrades gracefully and the rest still runs.
- Each run is a fresh point-in-time snapshot; nothing is overwritten. Old run
folders are safe to delete (they're gitignored under
.claude/).
- Charts are rendered from our own
/api/agent/ticker/:symbol/chart-data
(90d OHLC + indicators) โ no TradingView scraping, no session cookies, no
account risk, no third-party chart API. If the chart step fails, the data
recap still completes; the health table shows the render status.
- One-time setup (already done on this machine): a Python venv lives at
.venv/ with mplfinance + pandas. If it's missing (fresh clone), recreate:
python3 -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install mplfinance pandas.
