Actually, you are probably seeing stocks which trade as few as 30,000
shares -- the multiplier is 100. Try your filter at 30,000 for 3,000,000
shares.
You can put it right in the filter section of the Explorer, you don't have to
put
it in one of the columns. For example, my Explorer setting is:
C > 20
AND V > 100
AND (colA = 1)
AND (colB = 1)
Where the Close is greater than $20 / share, the Volume is over 10,000
shares traded (100x100), and both colA and colB are equal to 1.
