How can I scan filter for stocks which wnet up one dollar or more from the previous day?

You can create and update the following PCF:

C>=C1+1

Add the condition to a scan. I would think you may also want to include Price Per Share as a scan condition, limiting your stocks to those with lower trading prices. A one dollar move on BRKA would be pretty much statistically insignificant!


Here are two training videos to help with PCF's and scans, should you need them:

Another way to do this:

Create the PCF

Net Change

C-C1

After creating the PCF you can add it to an EasyScan and limit it to VALUES of 1 to MAX.

Keep in mind that the price per share of the stock will be a large factor in this. Be sure to limit the Price Per Share in your EasyScan.
