% Value Change

The % Value Change scan identifies securities that have displayed a price percentage change in value over a user-defined period of time. e.g. A 50% increase in price over a period of one month.

Depending on which date is selected at the Date Range option in the Scanning Manager main window, this scan would search for a 50% Increase in price value over an Average Period of 1 month from the date selected in the Date Range. The scan would use the closing prices based on Daily bars.

For example, if you selected the 1st of March in the Date Range option, this would search for a 50% increase in closing price from 1st February to the 1st of March. It would look at the Daily close prices.

Change %:           Selects the percentage value of change to search for. Selecting 50% would look for a 50% change in closing price.
