This screen lists stocks on Asian exchanges priced under 5 in the local currency that trade more than 1 million shares a day on average, ranked by today's volume; the top 100 are shown. Low-priced stocks with heavy volume attract active traders because small price changes mean large percentage moves. They are also riskier and more volatile than larger companies, so size positions carefully. Prices are in each exchange's local currency, and the list covers stocks traded in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore, Seoul and Jakarta with at least about US$0.7 million in average daily trading value.
