A moving average smooths out a stock's price, and many traders treat the 50-day and 200-day averages as the line between an uptrend and a downtrend. The Moving Average Crossovers scanner lists U.S. and Canadian stocks whose price crossed their 20, 50 or 200-day simple moving average in the last session.
A cross above the average is a bullish crossover; a cross below it is bearish. The 200-day crossovers are the ones that make headlines.

The average of the closes over a number of days. The 200-day simple moving average (SMA) is the average close of the last 200 sessions.
The previous close was on one side of the average and the last price is on the other side: below then above for a bullish crossover, above then below for a bearish one.
The 20-day average follows short swings, the 50-day the medium-term trend and the 200-day the long-term trend. Crossovers of longer averages happen less often and tend to matter more.
Every trading day, overnight after the close.
