What are the quickest moving stocks

Screening Filters

1. Relative Volume (relative_vol: min 4.0):

   • Purpose: To identify stocks that are currently experiencing significantly higher trading activity compared to their average volume.
   • Rationale: A relative volume of 4.0 means the stock is trading at least 4 times its normal volume, which often indicates heightened interest or activity. This is a strong indicator of a "quick-moving" stock, as increased volume often correlates with rapid price changes.

2. Weekly Price Change Percentage (week_price_change_pct: min 15):

   • Purpose: To filter for stocks that have experienced a significant price increase (at least 15%) over the past week.
   • Rationale: A high weekly price change percentage is a direct measure of a stock's recent momentum. Stocks with such large price movements are typically considered "quick-moving" as they exhibit strong short-term trends.

3. Weekly Average Turnover (weekly_average_turnover: min 3,000,000):

   • Purpose: To ensure the stocks have sufficient liquidity and are actively traded.
   • Rationale: A minimum weekly turnover of $3,000,000 ensures that the stocks are not only moving quickly but are also accessible for trading. High turnover indicates that there is enough market participation, reducing the risk of illiquidity and making it easier to enter or exit positions.

Why Results Match:

• The combination of relative volume and weekly price change percentage ensures that the screener captures stocks that are both experiencing significant price movements and heightened trading activity, which are key characteristics of "quick-moving" stocks.
• The weekly average turnover filter ensures that the results are practical for trading by focusing on stocks with sufficient liquidity, avoiding illiquid or obscure stocks that may not be suitable for most investors.
• Together, these filters create a focused list of stocks that are likely to exhibit the rapid price action the user is seeking.
