A big up-day speaks for itself. This scan finds NSE stocks that closed more than 3% above their opening price today — a strong bullish candle that shows buyers dominated the session from open to close.
Traders watch strong bullish candles for signs of a momentum shift or breakout, particularly when they appear on above-average volume or at a key level.
A single strong candle can be a one-day event or reaction to news; it needs follow-through the next session to confirm real momentum.
This is a Volume & Price Action scan. AlphaGrid computes it across 2,000+ NSE-listed stocks using end-of-day and intraday price data, refreshing through the trading session. Results are ranked and can be opened in the full screener, where you can add your own conditions and set alerts.
It is a session where the stock closes well above its open — here, by more than 3% — showing buyers controlled the day. It can signal a momentum shift, especially with volume.
Not blindly. A strong candle is a signal of interest, but experienced traders wait for follow-through the next day and check volume before committing.
