NEW DELHI: Many largecap stocks including Reliance Industries, SBI, Bajaj Finance, Tata Steel, IOC and Vedanta are among 115 stocks that are looking strong on momentum oscillator MACD, or moving average convergence divergence, after the recent selloff.
The momentum indicator signalled bullish crossovers — a sign of bullish undertone — on these counters, hinting at possible upsides for these counters in the days ahead.
The list included Vodafone Idea, Nalco, SBI, RIL, IOC, Bajaj Finance, Hathway, Cable, Delta Corp, PFC and LIC Housing. Many of these stocks gained up to 4 per cent in morning trade on Tuesday.
TVS Motor, Vedanta, CDSL, IOC, Indian Bank, Suzlon Energy and Geojit Financial Services are some of the other stocks that looked strong on the MACD indicator. They have gained up to 12 per cent so far.
Vi, SBI, Tata Steel and Vedanta are among the 15 stocks on the list. MACD is known for signalling trend reversals in traded securities or indices. It is the difference between the 26-day and 12-day exponential moving averages. A nine-day exponential moving average, called the ‘signal line’, is plotted on top of the MACD to indicate ‘buy’ or ‘sell’ opportunities.
When the MACD crosses above the signal line, it gives a bullish signal, indicating that the price of the security may see an upward movement and vice versa.

Data showed five stocks are showing bearish trends: Bajaj Consumer Care, Sobha, Neuland Labs, Cigniti Technologies and Timken India.
Bajaj Consumer and Sobha were among the five stocks on the list. The MACD indicator should not be seen in isolation, as it may not be sufficient to take a trading call, just the way a fundamental analyst cannot give a ‘buy’ or ‘sell’ recommendation using a single valuation ratio.
This is because the MACD is a trend-following indicator. Though traders can increase the sensitivity of MACD by using shorter moving averages for computing MACD (e.g. 5-day and 12-day moving averages), the lag effect will still be there. Hence, one should make use of other indicators such as Relative Strength Index (RSI), Bollinger Bands, Fibonacci Series, candlestick patterns and Stochastic to confirm an emerging trend.

A move above this will add some momentum and take Nifty towards its next resistance levels at 14,650 (hourly 200-day SMA) and 14,750, which is the trendline resistance arrived at by joining the recent swing highs of this corrective phase," said Sameet Chavan of Angel Broking.
“On the flip side, the 14,380 and 14,270 levels would be seen as immediate supports. With these levels on the tab, traders can look at stock-specific ideas where better opportunities can be seen," Chavan said.
