What problem does it solve?
This skill eliminates the manual effort of identifying legitimate contrarian buy opportunities in correlated stock baskets, filtering out market-wide price drift to isolate stock-specific underperformance and avoid emotional, trend-chasing trades.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Basket-Relative Laggard Ranking: Compares each stock's short-term return to the median return of the entire buyable basket to strip out systematic market moves and identify true underperformers.
- Built-in Trading Guardrails: Includes a 50-day moving average filter to avoid catching falling knives in confirmed downtrends, a rebuy throttle to prevent overexposure to the same stock across consecutive ticks, and cash balance checks to avoid overextending the trading account.
- Real-World Use Case: For a paper trading portfolio of 10 correlated tech stocks, this skill automatically identifies the worst-performing laggard that is not in a confirmed downtrend and places a small buy order when the required cooldown period has passed.
Quick Start
