This screen lists stocks on the London Stock Exchange 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. LSE prices are quoted in pence, and the list skips thinly traded shares.
