Now I don’t have time to spend hours sifting through stocks or creating custom watch lists so I like to set up automatic lists where the platform does this for me in realtime.
And of course, we have a short sweet and simplified video on how you can set this up.
So we are using the ThinkorSwim platform but for those of you on a different platform a lot of these tips are still relevant with a few adjustments.
So to start, I have a daily gainers list set up over here on the left which automatically adds stocks that fit my criteria for intraday gainers. To do this you just have to drag over to the drop down menu and hit “create scan query”.
Once you’ve done this, a pop up comes out that allows you to set criteria for the watchlist. I recommend setting three criteria, the percentage change, volume, and last sale price. Now you can adjust this if you find that there are more important criteria that you are looking for but for me personally these are the three things I look for to get the ball rolling.
So for percentage change I like to set it to be is higher than 10% because if its less than that the price movement is less likely to be enough to trade off of and I don’t like scrapping for profits. For maximum I set some sort arbitrary number that allows me to see the biggest gainers.
Next, for volume I focus on hitting stocks that have at least 500k in volume because the lower the volume the harder it is to get out of a stock and the less reliable our strategies are. Ideally, the stock would have over a million in volume but 500k is lowest I’m willing to accept. For volume, same thing where I set an arbitrary number that doesn’t limit stocks with a maximum volume.
For last sales price, I like to trade stocks that are between 30 cents a share and all the way up to $30 share because I find that these have the most volatility and there is relatively low principal required to make a profit with these stocks.
