Use the live page first, then tighten your review using this playbook.

These guide pages are designed to help you move from raw output to better shortlist decisions faster and with more confidence.

Overview

Best used when you want early signals, but still plan to validate carefully.
Works better after extended declines or long consolidations than in random chop.
Ideal for finding candidates that deserve a second look before a full breakout forms.

How to use Trend Reversal Screener

1

Use the screener to shortlist turn candidates

Think of this as a source of early watchlist names, not final trade decisions.

2

Demand improving structure after the signal

A real reversal usually starts to reclaim key levels, tighten volatility, or improve relative performance after the initial alert.

3

Scale your conviction with confirmation

The more trend evidence you get after the signal, the more actionable the candidate becomes.

4

Be stricter in weak markets

Early reversals fail more often when the broader market is still under pressure.

Starter parameter guide

These are the main inputs you can tune on the page and the range to begin with when you want a clean first pass.

Open Page
Parameter What it does Good range to start
Market Choose the exchange universe you want to scan first. Run India and US separately.
Number of Stocks Controls how many names are scanned from the selected market. Start with 50 to 150 names.
Use MACD Turns MACD reversal logic on or off inside the scan. Keep enabled for the first pass.
MACD Fast / Slow / Signal Sets how quickly MACD reacts to price changes and crossover behavior. Start with 12 / 26 / 9.
Use Stochastic Adds a second reversal confirmation layer instead of relying only on MACD. Keep enabled for the first pass.
Stochastic K / D Controls how sensitive the stochastic reversal test is. Start around 14 / 3.

What to prioritize in the output

Early reversal alerts are most powerful when they appear after a clear prior downtrend.
A reversal signal without price follow-through is just a watchlist note.
Sector confirmation helps distinguish real rotation from dead-cat bounces.

Common mistakes to avoid

Assuming the first signal means the bottom is already in.
Buying weak charts before they reclaim important levels.
Ignoring that reversal tools naturally produce more false starts.
