More Features of the OHL Scanner

• Similarly, you can also filter the stocks with an overnight gap of more than 1%.

Gap Status

• Also, you can filter with the gap status. We have seen the stocks with open = low gapping above last day’s high tends to move higher. Similarly, the stocks with open = high or today open high same stocks gapping below last day’s low tends to move lower.

Open .00

• There is a checkbox to find stocks with open .00. Which means the open price is an integer. There is no decimal places. We have seen that stocks opening at integer price with Open = Low or Open = High tend to move in a single direction if the opening 5 or 15 minutes range gets broken.
• Stocks opening at .00 and Open = Low stocks tend to move up if the 5 or 15-minute opening range gets broken on the upside.
• Similarly, pivot trading ohl stocks opening at .00 and Open = High tend to move down if the 5 or 15-minute opening range gets broken on the downside.
• As an example, on the 6th of September 2021, Grasim Industries stock opened at 1512.00 and the low also was at 1512.00. Now Grasim’s first 5-minutes high was set at 1525. The stock started showing an upside rally once the opening range got broken on the upside.

Disclaimer for the OHL Scanner

You should not use the OHL scanner as the only way to get a profitable trade. To make the accuracy level higher, traders must also trade with many disciplines. Trade each stock with the same value. Like if you are trading both SBIN and Reliance with our open high low scanner, trade both the stock for say Rs. 50000. Many traders make the mistake and trade say 100 SBIN as well as 100 Reliance. Instead, keep the trade size the same. Trade a limited number of stocks as you may not be able to handle many trades at a time.
