Intraday Price Filter

Day-traders make their money off them, and—if they're big enough—they can make CEOs sweat. No matter who you are, intraday price fluctuations can provide a good indication of how the market is feeling. With globeinvestor.com's Intraday Price Filter, you have just the tool you need to help read that mood.

1. Click on Filter in the black navigation bar at the top of the pages
2. On the resulting, select the "Intraday Price Filter" tab change the "Price Greater than $" to 5 or 10.
3. Enter a value in "Price Change Greater than" and if you want to further narrow the search, a value for "Volume Traded More than".
4. Select, under "Report Type", the Price Report - % Change option

The resulting list will display which securities are gaining on the day.
Use the Intraday Price Filter.
