EverHint – EMA10 × EMA30 Crossover – Top 10 Buy and Top 10 Sell Signals for Feb 19, 2026

What This Signal Is (Quick)

This strategy detects fresh crossovers between the 10-day exponential moving average (EMA10) and the 30-day exponential moving average (EMA30):

• Buy Signal (EMA10_x_EMA30_Buy): EMA(10) crosses above EMA(30) on today's close

  • Short-term momentum overtakes medium-term trend
  • Suggests acceleration in upward price movement
  • Ideal for swing trading (1-4 week holding periods)

• Sell Signal (EMA10_x_EMA30_Sell): EMA(10) crosses below EMA(30) on today's close

  • Short-term momentum weakens below medium-term trend
  • Suggests deceleration or reversal of upward movement
  • Can signal exit points or short entry opportunities

Key Characteristics:

• Uses two EMAs (both exponential) for faster response to price changes
• More responsive than EMA10 x SMA50, generating more frequent signals
• Better suited for capturing short-to-medium term momentum shifts
• Higher sensitivity means more signals but also higher whipsaw risk in choppy markets

Key Criteria:

• Sell: EMA10 crosses below EMA30

• Minimum ADV: $40M (liquidity filter)

• Earnings buffer: 7 days pre/post earnings

• Fresh crossover: Detected on today's close

Holding Period: 1-4 weeks
Risk Level: Medium

Market Context

The S&P 500's near-flat performance at +0.01%, alongside Nasdaq's modest gain of +0.19% and Dow Jones' decline of -0.30%, reflects a mixed market environment with limited broad directional momentum. For an EMA10/EMA30 strategy generating 36 signals, this choppy breadth heightens the risk of false crossovers, as short-term moving averages are prone to whipsaws in indecisive conditions. Elevated VIX at 20.23, up 4.60%, signals rising volatility, amplifying intraday swings that could erode signal reliability, particularly for momentum-based entries requiring sustained trends.

Risk appetite appears cautious amid the Dow's underperformance, suggesting a rotation away from value-oriented areas toward growth-sensitive pockets, with Consumer Cyclical leading as the top sector. This favors EMA10/EMA30 signals in cyclicals, where bullish crossovers may capture nascent uptrends if Nasdaq strength persists, but demands tighter stops given volatility's drag on follow-through. Overall, traders should prioritize signals in outperforming sectors while scaling back in laggards to navigate the divergent index action.

Sector rotation implications underscore opportunities in Consumer Cyclical, potentially validating more of the 36 signals if volatility stabilizes, but the VIX spike warns of heightened reversal risks across the board. In this setup, trend confirmation via volume or broader index alignment becomes crucial to filter high-quality EMA crossovers from noise.

Vlad's Take (EverHint)

Today's signals: Strong sector concentration in Consumer Cyclical (9 signals) suggests sector-specific rotation. 1 signal with insider buying adds conviction. 4 signals showing insider selling warrant caution.

Trading tips for this strategy:

• Entry timing: Enter on pullback after crossover or at crossover close price
• Position sizing: Start with 2-3% of portfolio per signal (swing trade size)
• Stop loss: Below recent swing low for buys, above recent swing high for sells
• Take profit: 5-10% target for swings, or trail stop at EMA10
• Time stop: Exit if crossover reverses within 1-2 weeks (failed signal)

Risk warning: EMA crossovers generate more signals but higher whipsaw risk in ranging markets. Use with trend filter (price vs SMA200)
