Hmmm. I don't have the answer to that. Perhaps BenA?

What's the best resource to monitor volume changes over a wide range of stocks....i.e. on an exception basis. Looking for breakouts. Volume at 2-5x average daily volume. Some thoughts-

- Investors Business Daily lists all biggest volume percent changes for each exchange. Unless you are day trading, you can pick up the paper in the morning and have your ideas in hand before the open.

- You can load a bunch of stocks into YAHOO, about 200 per portfolio, and specify volume, average volume and percent price change. You can scan through these portfolios during the day looking for big volume breakouts.

-CBS Newswatch has a % volume change list that it updates during the day (about a 20 minute delay)

Good luck. Dick

LiveCharts or Q-charts by quote.com provides among its "Top Ten" selections "US Stocks Volume Rate", "US Stocks Unusual Volume", and "US Stocks greatest volume". All are updated in real time. The "Top Ten" button is located on top, left, above the chart.

I sometimes monitor these volume indicators to spot interesting intraday activity. I also monitor Top-Ten % gainers, % losers, using a half dozen of these charts simultaneously displayed. For the charts I select $TICK, SPX, COMPX, MSH, INX, XTC, etc. indeces, all of which are graphed in real time (and at no cost!).
