Ramblings:

Short term trading requires volatility and increased ranges.

Float turnover is a prime measure of volatility and traders present.

Avg vol/Float is a measure of the % of float traded on an average day. It reflects the increased demand for the stock. It is a sign of true volume.

The stocks brought up by such a scan should move up or down in large % moves.

A stock with a float of 100M trading 2M a day has a 2% turnover, a stock with 10m trading 2M a day has a 20% turnover. This can be equated to 10 times the true volume or demand.

Some might be surprised at what stocks don't show up on the list.

When anyone comes up with a measurable definition of illiquid stocks, I would like to hear it.
