How To Use the Most Volatile Stocks List

I had a trader ask me how to use the "Most Volatile Stocks List" last week so I wanted to give an example of how I use it.  This might not work for everyone, risk management is key, experience is key, and I'm not giving investment advise.  This is purely educational.

The post: Volatility = Opportunity is posted everyday and screens for names that trade over 1MM shares of stock, over 5k options, and has an implied volatility (IV) over .6.  We post the top 20 because... well that's what we use.
