How to find stocks that gain by 100%, for example, in a year?

Larry

Does StockCharts provides a way to scan stocks that gain by x% in x months? Thanks.

You'd use the PctChange technical indicator for that.

Type PctChange into the search box on this forum for posts on the topic.

Also type PctChange into the search at StockCharts.com and check out the Support articles

A lot of good and great resources are available using the Search boxes.

As the indicators default to daily, you'd just need to add a modifier to the indicator. You can add "Weekly" and "Monthly" to most indicator scans to change the information that the scan engine looks at.
