How to scan Top % Gainers from Open?

[PDAC228]

Is there a way you can put this into the scan filters? I have 1 thinkscript where it shows daily % change from open but thats only on my charts. Would love to be able to scan the market for a list of top % change gainers since opening price

When you scan just click on the change column to sort by largest gainers and losers.

That's not change % from the Open though

Use the search box at the top. Use "scan" as the only word. There are codes that you can find that way.

I remembered your question and I think I just stumbled across the answer, does this work?

This will show it in a watchlist collumn but could be converted to a scanner.

I'm doing something wrong, I can't get it to work on a watchlist lol
