How to use this list

A stock near its high is in a strong trend, but the high can also act as resistance. Many traders wait for a breakout on volume — buying ahead of it is riskier.

This is not a conclusion — it is a starting point for research. Each stock's page shows its halal ratios and reasons; study the business, its reports and its price chart separately.

Halal status is re-checked daily and can change. Before buying, check the latest screening date on the stock's page. Screening methodology
