List of stock up 15-20 % today april 16

Screening Filters

1. price_change_pct: min 15, max 20
   • Purpose:
     To select stocks whose daily price move (percentage change) falls between +15% and +20%.
   • Rationale:
     Your request is for “stocks that increased by 15–20% on April 16, 2026.” The best available proxy in the screener is the daily percentage price change filter:
     • price_change_pct measures how much a stock’s price has moved (in %) from the previous close to the current close (or latest price).
     • Setting it to a minimum of 15% and maximum of 20% directly targets stocks with a single-day jump in that exact range.
     • This isolates unusually strong movers without including extreme outliers above 20% or smaller moves below 15%.

Why Results Match (and Where They Don’t)

• What matches your request:

  • You asked for stocks that increased by 15–20%.
    → price_change_pct with min: 15 and max: 20 matches this increase range correctly.

• What does not fully match:

  • You specified a particular date: April 16, 2026.
  • The screener filter as used does not include a date parameter; it only looks at the most recent daily price change, not an arbitrary past date.
  • In other words, we don’t support a “price_change_pct on a specific historical date” condition in this filtering setup. We can screen by current/latest daily % move, but not programmatically say “on April 16, 2026” inside the filter itself.

• Why the filter is still useful for your question:

  • If you are running this screen immediately after the April 16, 2026 session (e.g., on April 17 before another session closes), the latest daily price change will, in practice, correspond to the April 16 move, so the filter will effectively give you:
    • Stocks that moved +15–20% on April 16, 2026.
  • If you run it later in time, the filter will instead reflect the most recent trading day, not specifically April 16. It will still find “15–20% daily gainers,” just not tied to that exact date.
