I've loosened the criteria a bit, now that earnings season is limping to a close, by lowering the minimum average volume requirement from 3 million shares a day to 1 million. My best guess is that this will simply result in more symbols that failure final screening on action day -- the day I would place a trade -- but I never know for sure until I look.
