About This Scan
The rate of change (ROC) shows how much price has moved over a set number of candles. A 21-period ROC above zero means the stock is higher than it was 21 candles ago, about a month on the daily chart. This scan lists NSE stocks whose ROC closed above zero on the latest candle after being at or below zero on the previous one, on Rs 5 Cr of last-session turnover. It marks the moment a one-month downtrend turns into a gain. The mirror scan is ROC 21 Crosses Below Zero.

How To Use This Scan
- •ROC crosses are lagging. Use them to confirm a turn that price already shows, such as a breakout or a reclaimed average.
- •Check how steep the move is. A stock that only just crossed zero after a long fall has more to prove than one with a large positive ROC.
- •Pair it with a trend filter such as the 50 DMA. This scan has not been back-tested for an edge.
