An algorithmic trading strategy built around one critical market inflection point: the $1.00 price crossing.
The strategy focuses on stocks moving from below $1.00 per share to above the whole-dollar threshold.
The premise behind The Rubicon is that moving above $1.00 can alter the market environment around a microcap stock. Institutional restrictions, brokerage considerations, algorithmic triggers and trader psychology can converge around this level.
The Rubicon premise centers on several potential forces that may become relevant when a stock clears the $1.00 threshold.
Some institutional funds, ETFs and brokerages have policies that restrict purchases of sub-dollar securities. Clearing $1 can remove certain automatic restrictions and potentially broaden the pool of eligible participants.
Penny stock regulations and brokerage policies can create additional friction around very low-priced securities. A move above $1 can change some of those considerations, depending on the security and broker.
Whole dollar levels are widely monitored by traders and quantitative systems. A clean move through $1 can attract momentum traders, algorithms and additional trading volume.
Instead of manually scanning thousands of charts, the system is designed to filter the market and surface potential candidates.
The algorithm operates during the extended trading window and uses multiple conditions before presenting a potential setup.
Filters for stocks meeting the stated minimum average daily dollar volume requirement of approximately $1 million.
Additional proprietary metrics are used to distinguish potential news driven momentum from certain artificial or short squeeze driven moves.
The system simplifies the output into four easy-to-understand market signals: Watch, Buy/Entry, Hold and Exit.
A simplified traffic-light approach makes the scanner output easier to interpret.
