 Can someone send me the formula for scanning for the most volatile stocks priced at over $100 per share and are optionable? In other words, I'm looking for positions that have the wildest up and down swings within the last 6 months.
 
 Thanks in advance

 Use the Average Day Range(30) . I started with it at 2.00. Raise or lower it as you see fit.

 Can always just calculate by the percentage difference between the 6-month high and 6-month low.  Then sort in descending order.

 X, that is the method I use also except I use the 252 day high and low. Also filter by >= 3.

 Now on my filter above I modified it with
 and EMA(20) is above EMA(20) one day ago
 
 Something to remember is those stocks that are above $100 are less Volatile .
 If you search Deadly Combo by 13th_floor and his use of  Average Day Range(30) to find more volatile stocks. The Deadly combo uses stocks below 15.
 
 I personally don't trade OTCBB because I burned myself early on.
 So its
 Market is not otcbb
 Market is not etf.
 Also volatile going up and volatile going down too.
