 Plot this as a custom indicator:

1-month Volatility:

100*(MAXH21-MINL21)/(AVGH21-AVGL21)

The higher the plot, the more volatile the stock.

You also have the volatility criteria in the system to scan with.

Check out this video:

Using EasyScan to find stocks that meet your own criteria

In EasyScan add VOLATILITY as a condition and set to a high RANK.

Here is a video to help you with plotting the custom indicator I gave you above...
