Technical & Price Action
Price Crossing Above 200-Day MA is a Technical & Price Action screen. It checks every NSE-listed stock against 1 condition computed from nightly data, after excluding heavily pledged promoters and very small market caps. This page explains the rule, each figure and its source. It lists no stocks and is not advice.
The 200-day moving average is the single most monitored long-term trend indicator globally — it represents approximately one year of daily trading history and is the line that institutional investors watch to determine whether a stock is in a secular uptrend or downtrend. When the current price reclaims the 200-day MA after trading below it, it often marks the transition from a downtrend recovery to a new uptrend phase. This signal is more immediate than the golden crossover (50-day MA crossing 200-day MA), which can lag the actual price recovery by weeks. The price-vs-200DMA breakout catches the turn earlier and is confirmed by volume.
A stock must satisfy every condition below. Conditions are grouped under the pillar they test.
Trend Recovery
Hard excludes
Ranked by Market Cap, highest first.
Price vs 200-Day MA (%)
The percentage by which the current price is above (positive) or below (negative) the 200-day moving average. This screener looks for stocks where this has recently turned positive after being negative.
High is better
Volume Ratio (Current vs 30-Day Average)
Today's trading volume divided by the 30-day average daily volume. A value above 1.5 means volume is 50% higher than the recent average.
A 200DMA breakout on above-average volume is substantially more reliable than a quiet-volume crossover. Volume confirms that the price move is driven by genuine buying rather than low-liquidity drift.
High is better

We could not tell this screen's picks apart from the stocks it left out. That is an absence of evidence, not a finding that the screen is wrong; it is still a valid way to narrow a list by your own rules.
AI-generated plain-language explanation
Each month across 64 months of data we checked whether the stocks this screen picked did better over the following month (21 trading days) than the stocks it didn't pick. We score that from -1 (the picks always did worse) to +1 (always did better); 0 means no pattern. This screen scored -0.0039. As a measurement, the score is essentially zero. If the screen had no real edge, a score at least this far from zero would show up about 45 in 100 by luck alone. That does not mean the screen is wrong; it still works for narrowing a list of stocks by your own rules. This is a record of the past, not a prediction.

In the past data we checked, we could not tell the stocks this screen picked apart from the ones it left out. Each month, across the whole period we have data for, we checked whether the stocks this screen picked did better, over the following month (21 trading days), than the stocks it didn't pick. We score that from -1 (the picks always did worse) to +1 (always did better); 0 means no pattern. This screen scored -0.0039. As a measurement, the score is essentially zero. If the screen had no real edge, a score at least this far from zero would show up about 45 in 100 by luck alone.

This is a historical, statistical measurement produced by FINOME TECHNOLOGIES PVT LTD's research harness on past data. It is not a prediction, and past results do not indicate future results. The universe is today's Nifty 500 constituents, so the sample is affected by survivorship bias. It describes how a screen's selections behaved in the past and does not constitute investment advice or a recommendation.
