Opening Range Breakout Stocks NSE

The Opening Range Breakout (ORB) is one of the most time-tested intraday strategies — trading the breakout from the high or low formed in the first 15 minutes.

What Is This Screener?

The ORB strategy involves identifying the high and low of the first 15-minute candle after market open at 9:15 AM. A breakout above this range with volume is a bullish signal; a breakdown below is bearish. This strategy works especially well on days with strong market direction or after major overnight news.

Screening Criteria

• Identify 9:15–9:30 AM high and low (the opening range)
• Enter on breakout above the range high with volume
• Stop loss at the opposite end of the opening range
• Best on trending days, avoid on choppy/rangebound days

Why This Screener Works

This screener is best suited for Intraday traders. The optimal entry window is 9:30 AM onwards. 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.
