Fast-Rising Stock Alerts over 60 Seconds
Find stocks moving up quickly over the last 60 seconds. ChartsWatcher’s Running Up alert supports percentage or dollar thresholds for short-window moves.
Understand the trigger
What is Running Up?
Running Up identifies an upward price move during the last sixty seconds. You can set the move in percentage or absolute dollar terms, with 0.1 increments and a minimum setting of 0.5. The sixty-second window distinguishes this alert from rankings based on the day’s overall gain. ChartsWatcher calculates the event during premarket, regular market, and postmarket, so the session remains part of the review context.
An illustrative example
Running Up in practice
A hypothetical stock gaining 1.5% within sixty seconds illustrates the example setting in the help documentation. It could still be below yesterday’s closing price despite that rapid rise. Selecting a dollar-based option would define the event using absolute movement instead of the percentage change used in this example.
Make it part of your workflow
Catch the event. Keep the context.
Use ChartsWatcher to identify fresh bursts of upward movement across your filtered stocks. Review the chart to locate the move within the broader range, inspect available news, and compare nearby volume activity. This keeps a rapid-move workspace centered on what happened recently rather than only on the largest total gainers of the day.
ChartsWatcher brings your chosen alert types and filters into the same alert window. Add the data columns you want to see, then use the connected chart and news tools to explore a matching symbol.

How do I add Running Up in ChartsWatcher?
Open or create an alert window and choose Running Up in its configuration. Select the available options that match your setup, then add filters to define which stocks can trigger it. Review matching alerts alongside a chart and the stock’s news.
What should I check before using this alert?
A sharp sixty-second rise is not the same as a sustained trend or a positive daily return. Absolute dollar settings also represent different relative moves for differently priced stocks.
From an idea to your own scan.
Use Running Up with the other conditions that define your setup. Keep matching stocks, charts, and news together, with a configuration you can refine as you go.
