Hi,
Frequently stocks gap up (or down) when resuming trading the next day. I'm interested in adding some % qualifier for how large a gap can be between successive days. Ideally I wish to create a filter that will show stocks that have gained over 10% in the last 5 days where the average gap between days is less than 1% for instance.
Thanks, Jason

Chetron Helped me with this one. NOt exactly what you are looking for, but it may help point you in the right direction. THis filter finds stocks that have gapped down at least 8% but not more than 30%
This is mor for finding larger gaps usually around a fundamental event( earnngs etc) and then playing either the fill or shorting once it does fill...
I have set a colum for ALERt that calculates the price when price approaches filling the gap. This is when I would pook for a turn in the 5 EMA and look to go short.
As I said not exactly what you are looking for but perhaps might give you some gap ideas. Notice how X is A+B?
THis is how I specify that it must be between the 8% and 30% gap range....
