SMA Screener — Live NSE Stocks by Simple Moving Average Conditions

A Simple Moving Average (SMA) helps traders identify trend direction by smoothing price over a selected period. On StockeZee, the SMA Screener tracks NSE stocks crossing above, below or trading near important SMA levels such as 20, 50, 100 and 200 SMA. Traders use these signals to find breakouts, trend reversals, pullbacks and long-term momentum setups.

What is an SMA Screener?

An SMA (Simple Moving Average) Screener filters stocks based on their price relationship with key simple moving averages. SMA calculates the average closing price over a specified number of periods, giving equal weight to each period. It is widely used by traders and investors to identify trend direction, support/resistance levels, and potential reversal points. StockeZee's SMA Screener covers six condition types — Price Cross Above SMA, Price Cross Below SMA, Price Just Above SMA, Price Just Below SMA, SMA Bullish Crossover, and SMA Bearish Crossover — across 10 SMA periods from 5 to 200.

SMA Screener Categories

  • Price Cross Above SMA: Stocks where the closing price has just crossed above a specific SMA — a bullish signal indicating potential trend reversal or continuation upward.
  • Price Cross Below SMA: Stocks where the closing price has just crossed below a specific SMA — a bearish signal indicating potential downward trend.
  • Price Just Above SMA: Stocks trading slightly above a specific SMA — useful for identifying stocks in an uptrend or near dynamic support.
  • Price Just Below SMA: Stocks trading slightly below a specific SMA — useful for identifying stocks near dynamic resistance or in a downtrend.
  • SMA Bullish Crossover: Stocks where a shorter SMA has crossed above a longer SMA (e.g., 5 SMA crossing above 20 SMA) — a classic golden cross signal for trend reversal.
  • SMA Bearish Crossover: Stocks where a shorter SMA has crossed below a longer SMA (e.g., 5 SMA crossing below 20 SMA) — a classic death cross signal for trend reversal.

How to Use the SMA Screener for Trading

  1. Select SMA Condition: Choose from Price Cross Above/Below, Just Above/Below, or Bullish/Bearish Crossover based on your trading or investment strategy.
  2. Pick SMA Period: Select the SMA period (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 100, or 200) — 50 SMA and 200 SMA are widely used for positional and long-term analysis.
  3. Analyze Results: Review screened stocks with Close Price, LHS Value, RHS Value, and Diff to understand the signal strength and price-SMA relationship.
  4. Confirm with Charts: Use TradingView integration to verify SMA signals with volume, RSI, and other technical indicators before entering trades.

Frequently Asked Questions

An SMA screener is a tool that filters stocks based on their relationship with simple moving averages. It helps traders instantly find stocks crossing above, below, or trading near key SMA levels like the 50 SMA and 200 SMA.
You can find stocks above the 200 SMA by using StockeZee's 'Price Cross Above 200 SMA' or 'Price Just Above 200 SMA' screeners. These identify stocks that have recently broken out above or are holding the 200 SMA as support.
For swing trading, the 20 SMA and 50 SMA are most commonly used. The 20 SMA acts as dynamic support in short-term uptrends, while the 50 SMA is used for medium-term trend identification.
SMA gives equal weight to all periods in the calculation, making it smoother. EMA gives more weight to recent prices, making it faster to react to price changes. SMA is better for long-term support/resistance, while EMA is preferred for short-term momentum.
Price crossing above the 50 SMA is a bullish signal indicating a potential medium-term uptrend. Traders often use this crossover with volume confirmation as an entry signal for swing trades.
A Golden Cross occurs when a shorter SMA (like the 50 SMA) crosses above a longer SMA (like the 200 SMA). It is considered a strong long-term bullish reversal signal.
While SMAs like 200 SMA are typically for positional trading, shorter SMAs (5, 10, 20) applied on intraday timeframes can be used for intraday trading. However, many day traders prefer EMAs for faster signals.
