Find stocks trading at 2x+ their 50-day average volume. RVOL scanner identifies the day's most active names where institutional money is flowing.
Relative Volume — RVOL — is the single most important metric in day trading. It compares a stock's current volume to its own historical average, revealing when something has changed. A stock trading at 2x its normal volume has institutional interest. At 5x, it's the focus of the entire market. Day traders use RVOL to find names that are 'in play' — stocks with the liquidity, volatility, and participation needed for tradeable moves. This scanner sweeps 5,000+ stocks every day for names where today's volume is at least 2x the 50-day average, then grades each based on RVOL magnitude, absolute share size, today's price change, and intraday range.
For RVOL setups, an A+ grade means RVOL of 5x+ with absolute volume above 5M shares and a daily price change of 5%+. A grades require 3.5x+ RVOL with strong volume and a meaningful price move. B+ requires 2.5x+ RVOL with confirming size or move. B meets the 2x RVOL minimum. This is not a prediction of future price movement — it is a way to prioritize which charts deserve your attention first.
