Volatile stocks FTSE

[trade1010]

Hi all.

I am looking for a list of stocks in the LSE which are volatile.

Meaning they move from low to high, totalling 5%. Giving plenty of room
to short on a day to day or over a few days period.

I a looking for a list of about 20 good stocks which show good volatility.

Can some 1 point me in the right directions.

Thanks.

1. Using a list of FTSE 250 company codes e.g from
Yahoo! Finance UK

enter each code into the company code section in the following link e.g code AGK.L
for Aggreko

AGGREKO Technical Analysis | AGK.L | GB0001478998 | Yahoo! Finance UK

2. In the risk analysis section of Yahoo's data on each company you will find a measure of historical volatility
(showing quarterly volatility).

3. If you require a different measure you can easily calculate your own e.g 20 day volatility using a spreadsheet based on daily or hourly price moves or whatever.

4. Good luck!
