Many active traders usually trade in stocks that will get them the most bang for the buck i.e. what stocks have the largest intraday ranges (from high to low). In the table below, we highlighted the S&P 1500 stocks with the highest average intraday range over the last 50 trading days. In addition to having an average intraday hi-lo range of at least 3.0%, each stock had to be trading above $50 per share.














$50 seems like a random and poor criterion for traders. You might consider something that takes daily liquidity into acount, eg some average value of all shares traded in a day. a $5 share that trades a million daily is a likelier candidate for a trader than a $50 share that trades $100.
