Summary
- 27 stocks are within one day's normal move of a moving-average cross at the next close: 17 bullish and 10 bearish (Exhibit 2).
- 10 of the 27 carry Odds Next Close of 90% or more. The odds describe the cross, not the price; next-day Confidence for these setups sits near a coin flip.

- Watch-list calls so far: 30 of 57 predicted crosses happened at the next close, against about 36 implied by the odds (Exhibit 3).

- Bullish when the faster moving average is about to cross above the slower one; bearish when it is about to cross below. Results are measured long for bullish signals and short for bearish signals.
- Cross If
- The next closing price at which the cross happens (at or above for bullish, at or below for bearish), and how far that is from the last close.
- Odds Next Close
- The chance the stock's moving averages cross at the next close. It describes the moving averages, not the price: 99% means the cross is nearly certain, not that the price will rise or fall.
- Confidence
- How often past setups like this one closed the next day in the direction of the cross (higher for bullish, lower for bearish), across about 1,000 US stocks over 12 years. Around 50% is a coin flip.
- Win Rate
- Share of logged signals that closed in the signal's direction over the holding period.
- Reached +1%
- Share of logged signals that gained at least 1% in the signal's direction over the holding period.
- Holding periods
