The great dichotomy that's playing between Largecaps & MidSmall post covid.
Largecaps have been unable to hold it's ground & they are slipping further away from Midsmall in each cycle.
Exactly opposite of 2018-20 HRITHIK era
By #technical charts, if your target is just 18–20% in any stock, choose the stock which has the potential to give atleast 50% upside..
That’s called a #TechnicalMoat !!

Relative Strength (RS) chart highlighting the strong outperformance of the Mid-cap, Small-cap and Micro-cap segments against the benchmark.
On the higher timeframe RS charts, all three segments are showing strong formations indicating the possibility of a strong bullish phase ahead.
These RS charts started turning positive during Feb and early March when market sentiment was still weak and fearful.
This was one of the earliest signs of strength returning after nearly 1.5 years of consolidation in these segments.
Since the Nifty bottom on 2nd April 2026, nearly 618 stocks out of the top 750 have outperformed the index. Nifty with ~8% return since then is a most underperforming index on NSE.
This indicates that the current rally is broad-based.. a sign of healthy market momentum.
At the same time, market breadth indicators suggest some short-term exhaustion. Breadth readings in the Micro & Small-cap indices are now above 75% which may lead to a temporary pause (price or time correction) in the near term.
Knowing this helps identify which market segments to focus on.. and when to stay away.
But in practical execution, I have seen timing and disciplined execution remain difficult for most people. Momentify portfolios are nice way to participate in such trends.
Most traders study indicators.
I study past big winners. 📈
Because the market keeps rewarding the same characteristics over and over again.
The biggest winning stocks from the past all had clear similarities:
1) Massive Relative Strength: The stock already outperformed the indices before the huge move started. Strong stocks tend to get even stronger.
2) Big Fundamental Growth: EPS growth +50% or more. Sales growth +20% or higher. Institutions need a reason to pile into a stock.
3) A Real Catalyst: AI, crypto, rare earths, data centers, drones, fiber optics. Big winners usually have a strong story that attracts serious capital.
4) Tight Bases: The best stocks don’t move randomly. They pause, tighten up, shake weak hands out, then break higher again.
5) Strong Volume Clues: Multiple accumulation days with huge volume spikes often tell you that funds are building positions early.
6) Clean Trend Structure: The biggest winners respect moving averages like the EMA8 and EMA21 for weeks or even months.
That’s why I spend so much time studying past leaders.
Not to admire them.
But to train my eyes for future winners.
These patterns repeat.
Every cycle. Every year.
You don’t need random trades.
You need a blueprint.
Learn how the biggest winners looked before they exploded.
Then wait patiently for the next one.
I’ve taught this process to thousands of traders.
You can learn it too.
"Your Demat statement belongs to the market.
Your bank statement belongs to you."
The rise you saw was a paper profit.
The fall you see today is a paper loss.
Nothing is real… until you sell.
Yes, my portfolio is down too. And worrying won’t raise prices. It will only disturb your peace, your mood, and even your family life.
Yes, this is a crisis. But it is also training.
Markets don’t build wealth without first building your temperament.
In my investing journey, I have seen many such phases. I was worried then too...I am human. But I learned to live with these moments instead of reacting to them.
And every time the cycle turned, every new bull phase took my portfolio to new highs.
These situations are not here to break you… they are here to build you.
They are what make you a seasoned long-term investor forever.
You have to win over your mind.
Events create uncertainty… but fear is shaped within.
Learn to observe it, understand it, and guide it, because you are not your mind.
Stay patient. Stay aware. Stay grounded.
Because in the end, it’s not the market… it’s your temperament that creates wealth. ✌️

For all the traders who have been struggling in this market for the last few months - here’s a tip from the legend which has helped me a lot -
William O'Neil taught a simple truth: leaders don’t move alone.
In every strong uptrend, the #1 stock in a hot industry often pulls its “sister stocks” higher — the top 2–3 players in the same space. Strength travels in packs.
Stop chasing random names. Find the strongest industry groups. Own the leaders - and their closest competitors.
In this market, play strength. Strength compounds. 🚀
