The All Star Momentum Scan

While we go through our lists of sectors and stocks on a weekly basis, we thought of launching a product that would highlight the strongest performers in our universe. These are the ones that are primed for an explosive move.

Like The Outperformers scan, this is a list of stocks belonging to the sectors that display relative strength in the market at any given time. Since sector rotation is the lifeblood of a bull market, we will be ahead of the curve before the gears keep shifting.

Here is the list of The All Star Momentum Scan that we sorted by way of relative strength. These stocks have been selected on the basis of inter-and intra- sectoral performances. So while these belong to the sectors that are outperforming the market, these stocks are also outperforming their peers within the same sector.

In order to identify the high-momentum stocks, we scanned the Nifty 500 index on the basis of relative strength. Then we sorted them on the basis of the distance between the current market price and their respective all-time highs.

This is a bottom-up scan that keeps us on our toes. Any new development in price and sector rotation reflects in this list. Sometimes with so much going on one may overlook an interesting story developing in a specific sector. This scan helps us remain up-to-date with all that’s happening in the market.

To make sure that we’re getting the best out of the scan we look for outperforming stocks within the outperforming sectors!

Quite often, we see the same names coming up in different scans, but that is something we love to see! If different processes and scans are directing us towards the same name, that just means we should not turn away from the inherent strength in that particular stock.

This list gives us a comprehensive idea of what's moving and what's not in the market. Since it covers Nifty 500, the stocks have to fight it out for their place on this list.

Industrial Manufacturing stocks continue to display strength as the market participation widens. We're observing more stocks breaking out of their consolidations and here's a stock doing just that!

Polycab India has been range-bound for almost 15 months now. But we have a breakout, folks! The price moved past its resistance zone of 2,800 which had been holding its ground for quite some time. But as they say, the more times a level is tested, the more likely it is to be breached! Just as well, we now have a 15-month base breakout to track.

The indicator is displaying strong bullish momentum. We also have relative strength skewing in favor of Polycab.

With these factors in place. we are bullish on Polycab India with a risk management level of 2,800, and a target of 3,450.

This bottom-up scan helps us winnow down to the strongest stocks among as many as 500 scrip codes! So while we continue with our top-down analysis for a broader market perspective, an additional layer of the bottom-up scan adds to our process, ensuring that we’re not missing the names that are experiencing the most substantial moves.
