How investors use momentum lists
This momentum stock list is generated using a proprietary mathematical algorithm that highlights stocks with increases in trading volume and price movements. The algorithm distinguishes stocks showing positive and negative momentum based on price trends and volume activity.The ranking is not a buy or sell recommendation, but an indication that a stock is recording higher-than-usual volume and price changes. The next move could still be up or down, and momentum signals typically last only for a short period.
In our previous article on Bursa Malaysia’s trading momentum screen at the session close in the afternoon, one stock was identified with a positive signal, while two others showed negative signals based on a combination of price movements and volume. We also stressed that this momentum list is not a buy or sell recommendation, but an early indication of stocks recording unusual activity, which typically lasts only for a short period.
