How to Find Strong Stocks Using AmiBroker (200 DMA Breakout Scanner)

By Finance Pulse (S. Karthik)


Introduction

Most traders ask:

"Which stock should I buy?"

But professional traders don’t think like that.

They ask:

"Which stocks meet strong conditions today?"

In this post, I will show you how to scan and find strong stocks using AmiBroker.


The Idea Behind This Scanner

We are not predicting stocks.
We are filtering stocks based on strength.

This scanner finds stocks that are:

  • In strong uptrend
  • Getting high volume interest
  • Showing momentum
  • Breaking important levels

The Strategy Logic (Simple Explanation)

  • Price above 200 DMA → Long-term strength
  • High volume → Institutional activity
  • RSI above 55 → Momentum
  • Breakout → Fresh move starting

When all these align → High probability setup


AmiBroker AFL Code

// 200 DMA Breakout Scanner SetOption("NoDefaultColumns", True); price = C; ma200 = MA(C, 200); avgVol = MA(V, 20); // Conditions trend = price > ma200; volume = V > 1.5 * avgVol; strength = RSI(14) > 55; breakout = C > Ref(HHV(C, 50), -1); // Final Filter Filter = trend AND volume AND strength AND breakout; // Columns AddColumn(C, "Close", 1.2); AddColumn(ma200, "200 DMA", 1.2); AddColumn(V, "Volume", 1); AddColumn(RSI(14), "RSI", 1.2); AddTextColumn(FullName(), "Stock Name"); // Sort SetSortColumns(-1);

How to Use This Scanner

  1. Open AmiBroker
  2. Go to Analysis → Exploration
  3. Paste the above code
  4. Select your stock universe (NSE, Nifty 500, etc.)
  5. Click "Explore"

You will get a list of stocks that meet all conditions.


How to Read the Results

  • Stocks above 200 DMA → Strong trend
  • High volume → Big money interest
  • RSI strong → Momentum present
  • Breakout → Entry opportunity

These are not random stocks — these are filtered strong candidates.


Real Market Thinking

Instead of chasing tips:

  • Let the market show strength
  • Follow price action
  • Trade with confirmation

Important Rules

  • Always wait for proper entry
  • Use stop-loss
  • Do not blindly buy all scanned stocks
  • Analyze charts before taking trade

Why This Works

This scanner indirectly captures fundamentals:

  • Institutions buying → Volume increases
  • Good performance → Price trends up
  • Market confidence → Breakouts happen

So technicals = hidden fundamentals.


Final Thought

"Don’t ask which stock to buy. Ask which stock is strong."

Scan the market. Let data guide you.
