Search any NSE stock to see its Simple and Exponential Moving Averages from 5 to 200 periods, each with a buy or sell verdict, plus a price chart and company profile.
| Type / period | Meaning | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| SMA (Simple) | Equal-weighted average of closes | Smoother, slower to react — good for the underlying trend. |
| EMA (Exponential) | Weights recent prices more | Faster to react to new moves — good for timing. |
| 5–20 period | Short-term trend | Reacts quickly; used by intraday & swing traders. |
| 50 period | Medium-term trend | A widely watched line; price above 50-MA is a healthy uptrend. |
| 200 period | Long-term trend | The classic bull/bear dividing line for investors. |
Price above the MA = bullish

The Simple Moving Average (SMA) weights every price in the window equally, so it is smoother and slower. The Exponential Moving Average (EMA) gives more weight to recent prices, so it reacts faster to new moves. Traders often use EMA for timing and SMA for the broader trend.
A Golden Cross is when a shorter moving average (typically the 50-day) crosses above a longer one (typically the 200-day), signalling that medium-term momentum has turned up through the long-term trend — a widely watched bullish event. The opposite is a Death Cross.
This tool checks seven periods (5 to 200). The more of them the price trades above, the stronger and more broad-based the uptrend. A stock above all seven is strongly bullish; below all seven is strongly bearish; mixed readings suggest a transitioning or range-bound trend.
We compute both SMA and EMA for the 5, 10, 20, 30, 50, 100 and 200 periods from one year of the searched stock’s daily closing prices, and mark each bullish or bearish based on whether the current price is above or below it.
