🔍 How It Works

Algorithm Overview

1. Data Collection Phase
   └── Fetch live price & volume data from NSE India API

2. Baseline Establishment
   ├── Current Time: 10:30 AM (configurable)
   └── Reference Time: 9:30 AM (Market Open)

3. Trend Detection
   ├── Calculate: ΔPrice = (Current Price - Opening Price)
   ├── Calculate: ΔVolume = (Current Volume - Opening Volume)
   └── Filter: Select only stocks where BOTH metrics are positive

4. Momentum Scoring
   └── Score = (Price Change %) × (Volume Change %)

5. Intelligent Ranking
   └── Sort stocks by momentum score (highest to lowest)

Momentum Score Formula

Momentum Score = Price_Change_% × Volume_Change_%

Where:
  Price_Change_% = [(P_current - P_9:30) / P_9:30] × 100
  Volume_Change_% = [(V_current - V_9:30) / V_9:30] × 100

Example Calculation

Stock A: +2.0% price change, +150% volume change
  → Momentum Score = 2.0 × 150 = 300.0

Stock B: +3.0% price change, +50% volume change
  → Momentum Score = 3.0 × 50 = 150.0

Result: Stock A ranks higher (stronger momentum)

Why this works: High momentum score indicates both price appreciation AND increased trading interest, suggesting strong bullish sentiment.
