pead-screener is a skill for Claude Code from mphinance/alpha-skills. It costs 98 tokens per session (851 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of pead-screener, MIT.

A stock screener for post-earnings announcement drift, a pattern where a stock may continue moving after its earnings report. It examines weekly price candles to find pullbacks and breakout signals after earnings-related gaps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to screen recent earnings winners for red-candle pullbacks, breakout setups, and weekly momentum. It accepts data from the FMP earnings calendar or compatible JSON output from another analyzer.
Why use it?
It narrows a list of earnings gap-up stocks to those matching a defined follow-through pattern. This avoids checking each chart manually.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pead-screener scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 11 executable files (scripts/calculators/__init__.py, scripts/calculators/breakout_calculator.py, scripts/calculators/liquidity_calculator.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

PEAD Screener - Post-Earnings Announcement Drift

Screen post-earnings gap-up stocks for PEAD (Post-Earnings Announcement Drift) patterns using weekly candle analysis to detect red candle pullbacks and breakout signals.

When to Use

  • User asks for PEAD screening or post-earnings drift analysis
  • User wants to find earnings gap-up stocks with follow-through potential
  • User requests red candle breakout patterns after earnings
  • User asks for weekly earnings momentum setups
  • User provides earnings-trade-analyzer JSON output for further screening

Prerequisites

  • FMP API key (set FMP_API_KEY environment variable or pass --api-key)
    export FMP_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
    
  • Free tier (250 calls/day) is sufficient for default screening
  • For Mode B: earnings-trade-analyzer JSON output file with schema_version "1.0"

Workflow

Step 1: Prepare and Execute Screening

Run the PEAD screener script in one of two modes:

Mode A (FMP earnings calendar):

# Default: last 14 days of earnings, 5-week monitoring window
python3 skills/pead-screener/scripts/screen_pead.py --output-dir reports/

# Custom parameters
python3 skills/pead-screener/scripts/screen_pead.py \
  --lookback-days 21 \
  --watch-weeks 6 \
  --min-gap 5.0 \
  --min-market-cap 1000000000 \
  --output-dir reports/

Mode B (earnings-trade-analyzer JSON input):

# From earnings-trade-analyzer output
python3 skills/pead-screener/scripts/screen_pead.py \
  --candidates-json reports/earnings_trade_analyzer_YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS.json \
  --min-grade B \
  --output-dir reports/

Step 2: Review Results

  1. Read the generated JSON and Markdown reports
  2. Load references/pead_strategy.md for PEAD theory and pattern context
  3. Load references/entry_exit_rules.md for trade management rules

Step 3: Present Analysis

For each candidate, present:

  • Stage classification (MONITORING, SIGNAL_READY, BREAKOUT, EXPIRED)
  • Weekly candle pattern details (red candle location, breakout status)
  • Composite score and rating
  • Trade setup: entry, stop-loss, target, risk/reward ratio
  • Liquidity metrics (ADV20, average volume)
