Ross Cameron ScreenerEastman Kodak CompanyNYSE:KODKGabrielAmadeusLauThe 12-Minute Morning Flow (7:00–7:12 ET) Open “Gap & % Gainers” list (pre-market). Sort by % change; scan the top 5–10 only. Hard filters (pass/fail): Price $1–$20 (sweet spot $5–$10). %chg ≥ 10% (≥4% absolute minimum). RVOL ≥ 5× (today vs 30-/60-day avg). Float ≤ 20M (prefer ≤10M; sub-5M = rocket fuel). Catalyst check (white-/blacklist below). Float rotation quick glance: Volume / Float ≥ 1× already? Bump priority if so. Liquidity guardrails: Pre-mkt volume ≥ 300k (tighten to ≥ 1M for safer fills). Bid/ask spread ≤ 1% (or ≤ $0.05 under $10). Tag 1–3 tickers as A-setups (everything else = B/C or ignore). Mark headline times to anticipate bursts: 7:00, 7:30, 8:00, 8:30, 9:00, 9:30. What to Trade (and What to Skip) A. Green-list catalysts (prefer) Earnings beats/upside outlook Clinical results / FDA approvals Material contracts/partnerships (not fluff) Sector tailwinds (theme rotation—AI, GLP-1, China ADRs, etc.) Technical/short-squeeze breakouts (OK even with no news if tape is clean) B. Red-list catalysts (avoid) Buyouts / M&A at fixed price (turns into a barcode around deal level) Obvious promo/pump (OTC, newsletter spam) Bankruptcy/provisional delisting (too binary; hard to manage risk) The Scanner Recipe (copy these ideas to your platform) Universe: All US stocks, price $1–$20, not OTC, primary listing. % Change: ≥ +10% (pre-market) → sort DESC. Relative Volume (day): ≥ 5× (or “Volume ≥ 5 × avg 30D”). Float: ≤ 20M (display float column; you’ll eyeball ≤10M first). Pre-mkt Volume: ≥ 300k (raise to 1M on choppy days). Optional momentum toggles: Price > VWAP, Price > 20/50-DMA. Columns shown: %chg, Price, Volume, RVOL, Float, Sector, News flag, Rotation = Volume/Float. Fast Prioritization Heuristics A-tier: Price $5–$10, Float ≤10M, RVOL ≥10×, %chg ≥25%, clean catalyst, tight L2, rotation ≥1×. B-tier: Price $1–$5 or $10–$20, Float 10–20M, RVOL 5–10×, %chg 10–25%. Pass: No catalyst and messy tape, float > 50M, RVOL < 3×, thin/illiquid prints. Timing & Session Edges Prime window: 7:00–10:30 ET (most of your trades happen here). Midday: Usually stand down unless a true anomaly trends. Power hour (15:00–16:00): Only re-engage if the morning leader holds trend/flags above VWAP with volume. Sizing, Risk & Do-Nots (keeps you alive) Starter size only until it proves it can hold above VWAP/prev high. Max risk per trade: 0.25–0.50R of daily stop; daily hard stop set in stone. Liquidity check: Your order ≪ 2–5% of 1-minute volume. Respect halts/SSR mechanics; never chase into first spike after a resumption. No shorting early for beginners—unbounded risk; squeeze risk is real. Walk away if the tape turns illiquid or spreads blow out. Quick Read of the Tape (pre-entry sanity) Level 2: stacked bids, refreshing buyer at VWAP/flag lows, speed of prints increasing on pushes, light volume on dips. Structure: Clean pre-mkt flag, higher lows, holds pre-mkt high on the open, respects VWAP on pullbacks. Bad tells: Stuffed breakouts with heavy offers, repeated reclaim-failures of VWAP, volume dying on pushes. Minimal Watchlist Template (fill it in each morning) A1: Ticker / Price / %chg / Float / RVOL / Rotation / Catalyst / Pre-mkt high / Levels to watch A2: … A3: … Contingency: 2 B-tier names if the A’s die. When Nothing Qualifies Trade nothing. Or relax rules one notch (e.g., RVOL ≥ 3×, Float ≤ 30M) but demand cleaner technicals (above VWAP, tight flags, no overhang). “Why this works” (mental model) You’re engineering an extreme supply–demand imbalance: Demand = big % gap + RVOL + attention (top of list) + credible catalyst Supply = small float → fast float rotation → squeezes/continuation Then you ride clean technicals and cut losers fast.
