% Volume Change

 

The % Volume Change scan identifies securities that have displayed a volume percentage change in total over a user-defined period of time. e.g. A 50% increase in volume 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 volume over an Average Period of 1 month from the date selected in the Date Range.

 

The scan would be based on daily volume bars.

For example, if you selected the 1st of March in the Date Range option, this would search for a 50% increase in volume from 1st February to the 1st of March. It would look at the daily volume totals.

Change:               Enter the percentage increase / decrease amount you want the scan to find (50% for example).

Direction

Increase:             Select this option to scan for % volume increases equal to or greater than the specified Average Value.

Decrease:            Select this option to scan for % volume  decreases equal to or less than the specified Average Value.

Average Period

• Day

• Week

• Month

• Year

Average Period Count:  Sets the number of Average Periods to scan over.
