What Is This Screener?

## What Is the Gap Up Stocks Screener NSE Screen? This screener isolates NSE-listed stocks that open at least 1% above their previous session's closing price, with the gap holding — meaning price does not immediately fill back toward the prior close in the first few minutes. Three conditions must simultaneously be true for a stock to appear: the opening price must exceed the previous close by 1% or more, the volume traded in the first 15 minutes must cross 150% of the stock's average 15-minute volume, and the price must be sustaining above the gap level rather than collapsing into a gap-fill reversal. The screener is designed to capture institutional and operator-driven momentum — situations where demand at the open is so strong that sellers cannot push price back to yesterday's close. This is not a pre-market screener; it fires on actual traded prices post 9:15 AM NSE open, making the signals executable in real time rather than theoretical.

Screening Criteria

• Opening price > Previous close by 1% or more
• Volume in first 15 minutes > 150% of average
• Price holding above the gap level
• Broader market not in sell-off mode
