Published on May 16, 2025

Finding high-potential stocks before they move is part science, part art. At Trade Craft, we’ve simplified this process by combining smart screeners, powerful signals, and pre-built trading plans—so you can focus on what actually works.

Whether you’re a swing trader or building a momentum portfolio, here’s how you can use Trade Craft to consistently identify leading stocks—before they break out.

🔍 1. Start With Leading Industry Groups

Strong momentum stocks often emerge from the strongest sectors. This is where leadership begins.

Trade Craft dynamically highlights sector strength, helping you zero in on what’s working and ignore the rest.

Pro Tip: Focus on the top 1–3 stocks within a strong group. These are often the market’s early movers—and they tend to outperform when momentum kicks in.

📊 2. Prioritize Fundamental Momentum

The best breakouts aren’t random—they’re backed by real business strength.

Explosive earnings growth
Strong sales acceleration
High return on equity (ROE)
Expanding profit margins

You can even import filters from platforms like Screener.in or Finviz, ensuring you only shortlist high-quality stocks—not hype.

💹 3. Focus on Technical Strength

The chart always tells a story. Trade Craft helps you read it with clarity.

Relative strength vs index
Tight bases and breakout setups
High-volume upside days

Rocket Breakout: Our proprietary signal alerts you when a stock explodes +3% on strong volume—often an early clue of institutional interest.

🏦 4. Look for Institutional Accumulation

Big money drives big moves. Trade Craft helps you spot the signs:

Volume surges on breakout days
Smooth consolidation after breakout
Price holding above pivots and support levels

When funds start buying, the footprints are visible—Trade Craft makes sure you see them.
