How To Scan for Stocks Hitting 52-Week Highs

You can scan for stocks hitting new 52-week highs using the New 52-Week Highs scan from the StockCharts Sample Scan Library. From Your Dashboard or Charts & Tools tab, scroll to the Sample Scan Library and run the New 52-Week Highs scan. The scan will filter out all the stocks and ETFs that meet the scan criteria.

How high can the stock go? Theoretically, it could reach its all-time high of $45, but it may not necessarily be smooth sailing. Looking at the weekly chart, PLTR could hit resistance around the $26–$29 level. If the stock price is able to break above this level, the next resistance could be anywhere from $37–$45.

Why is scanning for stocks that are hitting new 52-week highs important? It goes back to the strategy of legendary stock trader Jesse Livermore. One of Livermore’s criteria was to identify stocks that are breaking out on a new high. It meant the stock had overcome a resistance level and was likely to move higher. But the stock needs momentum. Without it, the stock price could fall back to its 21-day EMA.

The bottom line: It’s worth running the New 52-Week Highs scan on a regular basis and going through the charts of the stocks and ETFs that meet the criteria. Look for the momentum by looking at an indicator like the PPO and watching trading volume. Volume needs to be strong to push the price higher.
