(Weekly) Stock Screener: Moving Average Crossover | April 23

This analysis has the function of Stock Screener because it allows you to identify the stocks that showed one of the 4 trading signals / chart patterns that identify the potential start/continuation of a positive/negative trend using Exponential Moving Averages, one of the most used tools.

Exponential moving averages are used instead of simple ones due to their characteristic of giving greater weight to the most recent prices so as to be more reactive, since weekly data are used which by their nature are less reactive than daily data. From this point on, the term Exponential Moving Average will be shortened to EMA.

The 4 trading signals / chart patterns considered in this article are the following:

  • Positive Trend:
    5-week EMA crossed above 10-week EMA
    5-week EMA crossed above 30-week EMA
  • Negative Trend:
    5-week EMA crossed below 10-week EMA
    5-week EMA crossed below 30-week EMA

In this analysis the trading signals / chart patterns refer to the weekly stock prices and not to the daily ones. The weekly data allow you to better focus on the medium-long term trend without being influenced by the so-called “noises” typical of daily charts, or the volatility of the day-to-day fluctuations.
