Stocks Touching 10 year high !
Top Weekly Gainers
Highest Volume Stocks with Good fundamentals :
These are stocks with their End of day BSE+NSE delivery volume trading 2 times of Avg Month NSE+BSE Delivery volume. Volume Multiplier is ratio of delivery of Volume at the end of the day to Average delivery volume for the Month. This indicates
- a surge in investor interest or trading activity.
- increased volatility (Opportunity for Short term).
- speculative risk.
- Improved liquidity.
It's important to note that while increased delivery volume can be a sign of significant market interest, it does not guarantee that the stock will perform well (upside/downside) in the future.
Traders and investors should consider various other factors, such as company fundamentals, market conditions, and their own investment objectives, before making decisions based solely on trading volume data. Additionally, past performance is not indicative of future results, so thorough research and risk management are essential in any strategy.
These are not recommendations to buy or sell !!
Back testing
Now, lets see the back test of this strategy over a different periods. The stock selection means that the stocks being selected are either from Nifty 50 or Nifty 500.
Tried out rebalancing of such selected stocks on a different frequencies like monthly or quarterly so that we give the stock a change to perform over such periods and then compare and then do the selection/deselection of the portfolio. Also, to compare the returns, have selected the benchmark performance as Nifty 50/500.
The above comparison gives the strategy 2 as the best strategy keeping quarterly as the best refresh and Nifty 500 as the optimum pool for stock selection. I have checked returns of Nifty 50 as well (Strategy 3) and the benchmark returns have dropped from 281% to 241%.
As per this strategy, if the rebalancing is reduced to Monthly (Strategy 1) the returns drop significantly.
If we limit the stock selection to Nifty 50 (Strategy 4), the strategy returns drop to a meagre 107% which is below par the Nifty50 CAGR.
Stocks At 52 Week High
