Price – Fall Percentage

What is the Price – Fall Percentage Scanner?

The Price – Fall Percentage scanner will monitor, in real-time, the fluctuation of prices as set in the scanner settings. It allows the user to define a value for the fall percentage. When prices fall and the fluctuation of prices is more than the set percentage, the Trade Signal messages will be generated by the Price – Fall Percentage scanner and be visible in the results screen for the Price – Fall Percentage scan.

  • Scanner Category: Price
  • Scanner Type: Customizable, which means the threshold values of the filters can be changed.
  • The scanner working time is from 04:00:00 to 20:00:00.

Trigger Conditions

The Price – Fall Percentage scanner will be triggered if all the following conditions are true:

  • The prices have fallen in a short period of time.
  • All of the common filters are true.
