How To Use This Scan

- •Avoid crosses in symbols with sub-1000 lakh traded value; they whipsaw.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a golden cross in stocks?
The 50-day moving average crossing above the 200-day moving average — a long-term bullish signal indicating the medium-term trend has overtaken the long-term one.
Is the golden cross a reliable buy signal?
