Q:Nasdaq stocks to trade

I'm trying to figure which stocks would be better for intraday scalping/momemtum trading with 3000-5000 shares lot.
Requirements for stocks:
1.Liquidity - at least 5 mil shares a day but no more than 20 mil,
2.Volatility - nice intraday range,
3. Price - $7.00 - 27.00.

I know that I could look for this info on nasdaq site but I'd prefere to hear what people think.
What are your favourites?

P.S. I trade NVDA for the last 2 month and I like it but sometimes it does nothing - there's where my question's come from.

You should

1. Only trade through a Prop firm,preferably Bright
2. Trade listed NYSE
3 Use MOO orders
4. Do some pair trading to jack up commissions

Thanks, but that didn't answer my question:(
 
KLAC
QLGC
MXIM
NVLS
CCMP (spreads can vary on this one - be careful)

Don't worry about price - the above will be within 7.00-27.00 before long :D
 
CCMP can be a real ride, sometimes moving 3 points in 1 day as opposed to a point or so with the others. But I won't pay that f**cken 20-cent spread that many times shows up.
