About breakout stocks today

Breakout stocks are shares that close at a new 52-week high on unusually heavy trading. This page lists companies whose latest close is at a one-year high and whose volume is at least twice their usual level, with the usual level set as the average of the previous 50 trading sessions.

The rule on this page

Two tests must both pass on the latest trading day. The closing price must be at or above the highest price traded during any session of the past 52 weeks, so the gap from the high is 0% or more. The day's volume divided by the average volume of the 50 sessions before it must be 2 or more. Results are sorted by that volume ratio, highest first, and can be narrowed by sector and size.

What a breakout means

A breakout is a price moving past a level where it has stalled before. The 52-week high is the most visible such level. The two thresholds, a close at the high and twice the usual volume, are this page's own.

Why volume is checked

Volume is the number of shares traded in a day. A new high on thin trading can come from a handful of small orders. Requiring twice the usual volume keeps days when far more shares changed hands than normal.

Close, not intraday

The test uses the closing price, not the highest price touched during the day. A share that touched a new high and then fell back is not listed.

Limits of the screen

A breakout is not a forecast. A day's volume can be inflated by block deals, index changes or a single large order, and in small companies a few large orders can double it.
