I'm doing paper trading on webull. My only method right now is going to perplexity (AI) and asking it the highest moving stocks of the day. Yesterday I did it and traded XE which was moving rapidly. I'm confused because today I checked out HTCO for example which had an even higher % but the stock like isn't moving? I know there's more factors to consider based on the videos I've watched, but I don't exactly know how they tie into candlestick movement. so, my follow up question would be are there any good FREE scanners where I can set the criteria? Thank you.
