When are stocks vulnerable to correction

2

Yesterday I said solar energy sector and fertiliser sector stocks are vulnerable to correction at these level. Similarly I had warned about shipping sector before it topped. One of the easiest way to figure out which stock is vulnerable to correction is to look at "Price vs 200 Moving Average" . When the stock is up 100% or more from 200 moving average (which on Telechart sort means value of 200 plus) , it is vulnerable to correction.

IBD studis of top performing stocks show that they top at around 110% from the 200 day MA. From time to time IBD talks about this sell rule.

If you sort the All Stocks list by "Price vs 200 Moving Average" , you will notice most of the stocks with 190 plus readings are solar and fertiliser stocks.

Another thing which signals likelihood of correction in a stock is climax move. Moves of 50% plus in a month on a stock which already has been rallying, typically lead to correction in the stock in next small time frame.

Pradeep, you noted SDTH as one stock vulnerable to correction. The next day it fell 10% but yesterday it came back 14%.

I am wondering if a stock such as this having gone up so fast so soon is a risky play now? Would you be buying it now given that it came back very strong after the 10% drop, or is this stock potentially one that can still correct 25% or more in short order?

Appreciate your thoughts on such high, fast runners.

Mike

I always buy such stock after a 10 to 20 day corrections. Buying at such elevated levels is risky.
