Finding Bullish Stocks Breaking Out in the Market Every Day

Our daily stock selection column mainly focuses on stocks that have just experienced a technical breakthrough or have recently retraced to important moving averages(MA50/MA20) after a breakthrough.
In our selection strategy, "Relative Price Strength (RPS)" is the most crucial indicator. Additionally, we have included financial data as a stock selection factor. Even during a stock price retracement, we still have certain requirements for RPS (not lower than 80). Simply put, the RPS value ranges from 0 to 100. The higher the RPS, the stronger the stock's performance.
Today's Stock List
The table is sorted by composite score, which theoretically ranges from 0 to 100. Typically, we primarily focus on stocks with scores greater than 70.
Note: In last week's article, this stock has already presented a pullback buying point, which is worth paying attention to. >>4 Stocks to Watch Today: CCB, FOUR And More

SMR Rating represents the rating derived from the factors of Sales Growth, Profit Margins, and Return on Equity ratios. The Buy/Sell Rating is calculated based on the stock's price movement and trading volume, representing the recent buying and selling strength of the stock. The Technical aspect pertains to the stock price pattern, with "P" indicating Pullback and "B" indicating Breakthrough.
