Gap Up Stocks Screener NSE

Find stocks on NSE that open significantly above their previous day's closing price — a classic intraday and BTST trading signal.

What Is This Screener?

A gap up occurs when a stock opens at a price higher than its previous close due to overnight news, earnings, or broad market sentiment. Gap up stocks with high volume at open are among the most reliable intraday setups for momentum traders.

Screening Criteria

• Opening price > Previous close by 1% or more
• Volume in first 15 minutes > 150% of average
• Price holding above the gap level
• Broader market not in sell-off mode

Why This Screener Works

This screener is best suited for Intraday & BTST traders. The optimal entry window is 9:15 AM – 9:45 AM entry window. The strategy works because it filters out low-probability setups by requiring both price and volume confirmation before generating a signal.

Risk Management Tips

• Never enter a trade based on screener results alone — always confirm on the chart before executing.
• Use a stop-loss on every trade. For intraday setups, place it below the opening range low or VWAP.
• Limit position size to 2–5% of your trading capital per trade.
• Exit partial position at first target, trail stop-loss on the remainder.
