On this page, we have the scans that are used to create our Predefined Scan Results page. The official Predefined Scan results are run with a variety of additional “filter” clauses in addition to the criteria you see below; most notably, they all include a clause which limits the results to stocks with an average volume of at least 40,000 shares over the past 20 days.
StockCharts members can load predefined scans in our Advanced Scan Workbench and customize the scans to meet their specific scanning needs. This can be done by simply copying and pasting the scan syntax from this page into the Advanced Scan Workbench or, alternatively, by following our step-by-step instructions to load the scans directly from the Advanced Scan Workbench or from the Predefined Scan Results page.

StockCharts.com makes no claims about the effectiveness of these scans for trading purposes. These scans should only be used for educational purposes; they are intended to help you to develop your own personal trading strategy.
