Shortlists · Above 50dma
Distance above the 50-day is a coarse momentum proxy, useful for spotting overextension and for filtering risk on entries. Read against ADR — a name 18% above its 50-day with 8% ADR is not the same risk as one 18% above with 3% ADR. The 50-day moving average is a widely watched institutional reference line: when price holds above it after a pullback, institutions are defending the trend; when price fails to reclaim it, the trend structure is weakening. Percent extension above the 50-day is computed as (close / 50-day SMA) minus 1, expressed as a percentage. The roster includes only names with positive extension and sorts descending, so the most extended movers appear first. Very high readings — above 30 to 40 percent — often signal a parabolic extension where mean reversion risk is elevated. Use this list to gauge which names are in active uptrends and to identify both momentum candidates for breakout entries and extended names that may need to consolidate before another leg higher.

Distance above the 50-day is a coarse momentum proxy, useful for spotting overextension and for filtering risk on entries. Read against ADR — a name 18% above its 50-day with 8% ADR is not the same risk as one 18% above with 3% ADR. The 50-day moving average is a widely watched institutional reference line: when price holds above it after a pullback, institutions are defending the trend; when price fails to reclaim it, the trend structure is weakening. Percent extension above the 50-day is computed as (close / 50-day SMA) minus 1, expressed as a percentage. The roster includes only names with positive extension and sorts descending, so the most extended movers appear first. Very high readings — above 30 to 40 percent — often signal a parabolic extension where mean reversion risk is elevated. Use this list to gauge which names are in active uptrends and to identify both momentum candidates for breakout entries and extended names that may need to consolidate before another leg higher. The roster is capped at 50 names and refreshed daily after the US close.
Sorted descending by percent above 50-day moving average; eligible universe only, capped at 50.
The primary receipt is "% > 50dma". See the dedicated essay at /reads/moving-averages for the full definition and how to read it in context.
Daily after the US market close, around 17:00 ET. The footer of each shortlist shows the exact "computed at" timestamp for the most recent refresh.
50 names balances actionable density against noise: below the cap the receipts get marginal and above it the list stops being a shortlist.
