In this fast-paced society where several trading tools can be accessed with a one-click, ideas on how to succeed are in abundance. However, the over availability of tools and studies can become a double-edged sword, as it sometimes leads to analysis paralysis.
We know the fact that only a handful of traders manage to make consistent profits. What separates a consistent trader from an inconsistent trader is the strategy and discipline to follow the trading strategy.
In this article, we will share a list of stocks based on a very simple yet effective strategy, one that would help you to strengthen the probability of success in trading.
The technique is seasonality analysis. This technique helps to tell which stocks have performed well during a particular month. And as the saying goes ‘history tends to repeat itself, it is expected that the stock is likely to perform well as it has done in the past during that particular period.
In April 2022, the benchmark indices exhibited volatility amid subdued Q4 earnings, hawkish central banks and the resurgence of Covid cases in China, as a result, Nifty logged losses of 2.07% in April. However, the performance of Midcap index was resilient as it relatively outperformed the frontline gauge. Hence, we have chalked down top performing stocks from Midcap in May based on seasonality analysis. This will help you to know which stocks to keep on your radar for the month.
