NSE stocks forming a high tight flag

A high tight flag is the rarest of the patterns William O'Neil catalogued: a stock doubles in a few weeks, then rests in a shallow range instead of giving the gains back. Mark Minervini trades the same shape as his Power Play. Only a handful of NSE stocks qualify on most days, and many of them are small companies, so open every chart before reading anything into the list.

The exact criteria

The high tight flag is William O'Neil's, published in How to Make Money in Stocks (1988). It is a pattern you see on a chart, so no screen reproduces it exactly: the four checks below are its measurable parts, as we read them. Treat them as a shortlist to open charts from, not the pattern itself. Mark Minervini's method, Power Play included →

  1. 1.Doubled or more inside eight weeks: up 100% from a low to a high within 40 sessions, in the last three months46 pass
  2. 2.The high is two to six weeks old, so the flag has had time to form531 pass
  3. 3.Has given back no more than 25% from that high2,047 pass
  4. 4.Trades at least ₹5 crore a day on average over the last 20 sessions1,201 pass

Each count is that rule applied on its own to the whole NSE universe, so you can see which one is doing the work. The list above is the names that pass all of them.

Where our read differs

None of the names above currently clear our own entry filter. They qualify on the published criteria, but our model reads them as already extended. That is the gap between “this is a good trend” and “this is still enter-able”.

Questions

What is a high tight flag?

A chart pattern William O'Neil described in How to Make Money in Stocks: a stock rises 100% or more in four to eight weeks, then moves sideways for three to five weeks, giving back no more than about a quarter of the gain. The rise is the pole and the quiet range is the flag. O'Neil considered it rare and among the strongest patterns he found.

What is Minervini's Power Play?

Mark Minervini's name for the same shape: a stock that moves up 100% or more in under eight weeks on heavy volume, then consolidates for three to six weeks without falling more than 20 to 25%. He treats it as an exception to his Trend Template, because a stock moving that fast can qualify before its long-term averages have caught up.

Why are there so few stocks on this list?

Because the pattern is rare by definition. Doubling in eight weeks and then holding nearly all of it is unusual in any market, and a list of 50 names would mean the rules had been loosened until they stopped describing the pattern.
