my greetings.
experienced traders: could you give me advice what stocks best for scalping?
we can divide stocks in four categories: volume, volatility, price, plain chart.
i think that best stocks for scalping - price $10-25, 50-75c range.
What about volume? it is better to trade high volume stocks or 1-3m?
what more difficult? it is better to start from low volume stocks?

I'd look for stocks with volume greater than 1m. Too much bs in low volume stocks.

ATR of 50 - 75c is low. It may be ok for scalping but low ATR stocks move slow and there's not as much potential for a big move. I like an ATR greater than $1.

I'd like to see some names (symbols) of stocks that are currently working well for scalping.
