EverHint Signal — EMA10 × EMA30 Crossover — January 8, 2026
What This Signal Is (Quick)
The EMA10 × EMA30 Crossover detects fresh momentum shifts by tracking when the 10-day exponential moving average (EMA10) crosses the 30-day exponential moving average (EMA30):
-
Buy Signal: EMA10 crosses above EMA30 → Short-term momentum accelerates above the medium-term trend. Suggests upward price movement is gaining steam.
-
Sell Signal: EMA10 crosses below EMA30 → Short-term momentum weakens. Signals potential deceleration or reversal.
This is an experimental scanner using two exponential moving averages for faster response to price changes compared to simple moving averages. It's more responsive than EMA10 × SMA50, generating more frequent signals but also carrying higher whipsaw risk in choppy markets.
Best for: Swing trading with 1-4 week holding periods. Not a buy-and-hold recommendation.
How We Ranked Today (Reader Version)
We ranked all 68 buy signals and 30 sell signals by RSI(14) — the Relative Strength Index on a 14-day period:
- For buy signals: Lower RSI = more oversold = potentially better entry point (ranked higher)
- For sell signals: Higher RSI = more overbought territory
We then overlaid three critical data points:
-
Insider Net Flow (last 90 days): Are executives buying or selling their own stock? We only count actual purchases (P) and sales (S), ignoring awards, exercises, and tax transactions.
-
Days to Earnings: How soon is the next earnings report? Stocks reporting within 7 days carry higher event risk.
-
Analyst Coverage: Number of analysts tracking the stock, giving a sense of institutional attention.

Vlad's Take (EverHint)
Market Backdrop (Jan 8): S&P 500 +0.07%, Nasdaq -0.29%, Dow +0.85%. Mixed session with large-caps barely green and tech slightly red. The VIX closed at 15.45 (down -1.53%)—firmly in the low volatility zone (under 20). This signals a complacent market, ideal for swing trades with reasonable stop-losses. Small-caps (Russell 2000) outperformed at +1.11%, suggesting some risk-on appetite beneath the surface. Treasury yields rose slightly (10Y at 4.181%), applying modest pressure to growth names. Bitcoin held steady (-0.09% at $91.2K), Ethereum down -1.62%.
Overall sentiment: Cautiously bullish with low vol. Good environment for the EMA crossover strategy.
On Today's Signals:
We have 68 buy signals and 30 sell signals—a 2.3:1 ratio favoring the bulls. The buy-side is heavily weighted toward Healthcare (13 names) and Industrials (21 names), with notable representation from Basic Materials and Tech.
A few observations:
-
RSI extremes: Several buy signals show RSI above 80 (METC at 86.67, BE at 88.54, PDD at 85.74). These are technically overbought on entry, which seems counterintuitive. This happens when a stock has been in a strong uptrend and the EMA10 finally crosses above EMA30. Approach with caution—consider waiting for a pullback or use smaller position sizes. Overbought crossovers can continue higher, but they're vulnerable to quick reversals.
-
Insider activity:
- BNTX stands out with $30.5M in insider buying from CEO, director, and major shareholder in mid-November. That's real conviction at $7.50/share; stock now at $98.85 (though units unclear—verify if these are ADRs).
- VG has $16.8M in insider selling—concerning signal.
- TREX CFO's November purchase at $31.92 is already up 20%—bullish.
-
Earnings calendar: Most signals are 40-70 days from earnings, which is ideal. Gives you runway to capture the EMA momentum without immediate event risk. Exception: SANM reports in 18 days, CBSH and ALK in 20 days.
-
Sector rotation: The dominance of Industrials and Healthcare suggests defensive rotation or late-cycle positioning. With VIX this low, it might be worth nibbling on higher-quality names (A, ABT, BSX in healthcare; DE, ITT, SYK in industrials).
-
Trade structure: Given low VIX, I'd use tiered entries:
- 1/3 position at current levels
- 1/3 on a 3-5% pullback
- 1/3 if RSI dips below 50 (for those currently overbought)
Stops: 5-7% below entry for most names. Tighter (3-4%) for the high-RSI entries like BE, METC, PDD.
-
Watchlist: If I had to pick 3 from the buy side:
- TREX: Insider buying validated, industrials rotation, reasonable RSI at 71
- BNTX: Massive insider buy signal, biotech potential
- DE: Quality name, earnings 35 days out, classic industrial compounder
From the sell side, ADBE looks interesting as a contrarian fade—down 20% this year, trading at deep value vs peers, and the Semrush acquisition could unlock marketing AI upside. But that's fighting the signal.
Final Word: This is a decent setup with low volatility providing a forgiving environment. But don't chase the overbought names blindly—the EMA crossover is a momentum signal, not a value signal. Respect the RSI extremes and use disciplined position sizing.
