EverHint Signal — EMA10 × EMA30 Crossover — January 05, 2026
What This Signal Is (Quick)
The EMA10 × EMA30 crossover strategy tracks momentum shifts between two exponential moving averages. When the faster 10-day EMA crosses above the slower 30-day EMA, it signals acceleration in upward price movement—a potential entry point for swing trades. When it crosses below, short-term momentum is weakening relative to the medium-term trend.
This is more responsive than traditional moving average crosses (like EMA10 × SMA50) because both averages react quickly to price changes. That means more frequent signals, but also higher whipsaw risk in choppy markets. These crossovers work best when confirmed by volume, RSI levels, and broader market context.

How We Ranked Today (Reader Version)
We ranked buy signals by RSI(14), favoring lower RSI values that suggest oversold conditions with room to bounce. For sell signals, we focused on stocks showing momentum exhaustion.
We've overlaid three additional data points to help with context:
- Insider Net (USD): Net insider buying or selling over the last 90 days. Only open-market purchases (P) and sales (S) count—awards, exercises, and tax transactions are excluded. Positive = insiders buying, negative = insiders selling.
- Days → Earnings: How many days until the next earnings report. Approaching earnings dates (< 7 days) add volatility risk.
- Analyst Coverage: Where available, we note analyst estimate ranges to gauge consensus and uncertainty.
Today we scanned 84 signals: 48 buys and 36 sells. Below are the top 15 from each side.

Vlad's Take (EverHint)
Market Context: S&P 500 closed +0.14% at 6,902, Nasdaq -0.23% at 23,396, and Dow +1.09% at 48,977 on January 5th. Mixed sentiment with tech lagging and blue chips leading. The VIX closed at 14.9—just below the 15 threshold, indicating low-to-normal volatility but creeping higher from recent lows. Small-caps outperformed slightly (Russell 2000 +1.24%), suggesting some breadth improvement. Treasury yields dipped slightly (10Y at 4.163%), taking pressure off growth names. Crypto rallied hard: Bitcoin +2.77% to $94K, Ethereum +3.07% to $3,240. Overall: cautiously constructive environment with defensive rotation in play.
On These Signals: The EMA10 × EMA30 strategy generated 84 crossovers today, split nearly evenly (48 buys, 36 sells). That's a lot of activity—suggesting choppiness or sector rotation rather than a clear directional market.
The buy-side standouts (GFS, KMX, ARCC, FLUT) are heavily oversold or showing fresh momentum after consolidation. ARCC's insider buying and dividend focus make it interesting for income hunters. SBUX is finally stabilizing under new CEO Brian Niccol—institutional flows returning. Intel (INTC) popped 5% Friday on the CES launch hype, but remember: hype fades, execution matters.
The sell-side is more concerning. Deep oversold conditions (YOU at RSI 16.60, KDP at 18.88, RYTM at 20.35) suggest these could be bottoming candidates despite the sell signal. But heavy insider selling at OLMA, INTU, and RBRK raises red flags. When insiders are dumping millions while EMA10 crosses below EMA30, that's a double warning. INTU's Scott Cook sold over $6M in the past two months—pay attention.
Trading Tips:
- Tiered Entries: Don't chase these signals blindly. Use limit orders and scale in on pullbacks.
- Watch Earnings: 13 of the buy signals report earnings in the next 30 days. Volatility spikes expected.
- Respect Low RSI on Sells: Oversold sell signals (YOU, KDP, OLMA, RYTM) can bounce hard. Consider scaling out rather than shorting aggressively.
- Market Environment: With VIX rising toward 15 and small-caps outperforming, we could see more whipsaws. Tighten stops and stay disciplined.
