Are the moving averages coiled, or spaced apart?
The spacing of the 5, 10, and 20-day moving averages tells you whether a stock is coiled tight or stretched apart. This tool reads your ticker's moving-average stack right now, finds the closest historical matches, and shows you what usually happens next.
The order of the short-term averages, and the gaps between them, describe the shape of a trend. When the three averages bunch together, the stock is coiling and direction is undecided. When they fan out in order, momentum is running, and the only question left is whether it keeps running or snaps back. Two stocks can sit at the same price with the same long-term trend yet have completely different short-term structures, and that structure is what tends to set up the next few days.
The honest answer depends on how wide the gaps are, which average sits on top, and the ticker. A 5-day average a hair above the 10-day is a routine drift. A 5-day stretched well below both the 10 and the 20 is a different animal. The forward distribution from days that were spaced like today is the only way to tell a coil from a breakdown.
A live stack read, a 45-day forward price cone, a probability bar graph, a full sortable event log, and a market scan of the most notable setups right now.
One glance tells you how the 5, 10, and 20-day averages are spaced today, and which one sits on top.
Projects the next 45 days by applying forward returns from past days spaced like today.
How often price rose or fell by a set percentage after similar stack setups.
The three signed gaps (5 to 10, 10 to 20, and 5 to 20) that pin down the order and spacing of the whole stack.
The tool scans the market and highlights the stocks whose stack setup carries the strongest forward edge today.
The Historical Log displays every past day the stock's averages were spaced like today.
Check how the 5, 10, and 20-day averages are spaced on your watchlist or across the market today, and which stocks are coiled tight or fanned wide.
Open the 45-day price cone. It shows how price behaved after similar stack setups in the past. This gives you a realistic view of what typically happens next instead of guessing.
Switch to Bar Graph view and set your target price level. The bars show how often similar setups reached that distance by upcoming expirations. Toggle between "By Touch" and "By Close" depending on your strategy.
Before acting on the signal, open the events log. Check how many historical matches exist and whether they cluster in one period. A small sample or regime-specific cluster tells you the signal may be less reliable than the percentages suggest.
