Yuki,
Past behavior will give you some info.
Explore with
x=V>2*Ref(MA(V,10),-1) AND abs(ROC(C,1))<1;
Filter=x;
Buy=x;
AddColumn(ROC(C,1),"");
In the above code I ask todays Volume double from the recent V
average [replace 2* with 3* or other coeff] and the Roc between -1%
and +1%.
Double click on the results list to see when it happens.
In 2003 N100 history, nothing important IMO.
So many reasons for BEAS to make 28M shares [vs 8M to 10M] at a +0.2%
Note also that MSFT, CSCO, INTC were not in the results list...
The occurrence was poor[80/24000].
