The question it answers

Which stocks are moving, and why?

Overview

What is Market Movers on MrChart?

Market Movers ranks the U.S. stocks that are moving most today. Three tabs show top gainers, top losers and the most active stocks by volume, with a quick KPI bar for advancing and declining names, and highlight cards for the leader in each list. You can search by symbol or company name.

You can switch between the regular session and extended hours, and filter by minimum price, minimum market cap or exclude ETFs. Expand a row to see the reported catalyst behind the move, plus options flow and short-selling detail, so you can tell a news-driven move from a quiet drift.

Where it fits in your day

  • Finding stocks in play

    Check the three lists in the morning to see which names are getting attention and whether the volume supports the move.

  • Separating news from noise

    Use the catalyst tag to see if a move comes from earnings, an analyst action or another event, or if it moves against its own news.

  • Watching extended hours

    Switch to pre-market or after-hours to see early reactions among the day's movers.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What are market movers?

Market movers are the stocks with the biggest price changes or the heaviest trading in a session. MrChart ranks them as gainers, losers and most active across the U.S. market.

What does relative volume mean?

It compares today's share volume with the stock's own 30-day average. A reading above 2x suggests unusually heavy trading compared with normal for that stock.

Does a top gainer mean I should act on it?

No. A ranking only shows what is moving, not what will happen next. Use it as a starting point for research on the analysis pages, not as advice.
