Day traders LOVE these big percent gainers. So how do you find them?
One of the biggest things you’ll look for is a basic gainer scan. You basically filter on volume, price range, and percent gain. The biggest criteria you should focus on is the dollar range. This is where everyone is different. Some only care about stocks over $1, and others care about stocks under $1.
If you’ve got a small account, you can’t afford to trade a $1,000 stock. So focus on price.
Next, focus on percent gain. If a $50 stock is up $5, it’s not up by much ... and not worth your time. You want to look for stocks that are up at least 20%. And don’t forget to check for volume. That will likely vary throughout the day. But if it’s pre-market, you’ll look for hundreds of thousands of shares traded. Ignore illiquid stocks. That’s the last place you want to be stuck.
Now you want to see if there’s news on these gainers. The news can also vary. But the great thing about this scan is it will tell you if there’s a news article on the stock today or recently. And the news can really spike your interest in that particular stock.
You gotta remember the new high of the day scan. New traders don’t always remember this one, but veteran traders all follow it. This tool doesn’t get nearly enough appreciation. It shows you every stock that’s made a new high of the day and how many times.
If you see a stock, especially in the afternoon, that hits the HOD multiple times, that’s your cue to pull up the chart. Check it out. It’s definitely bullish, and there’s a good chance it’ll continue to spike. Stocks that hit new HODs tend to continue to hit new HODs … it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Price, volume, percent change, and news — these are awesome simple tools. And the simple tools can help you find the best trades. Remember, the stock market's supply and demand. The simpler the trade, the more likely the herd will come in. And that means you can see that explosive volume. Don’t forget to K.I.S.S: keep it simple, stupid.
