Parameters and response fields
get_top_movers
Mechanically ranked index movers and most-active namesUSE WHEN
Rank one index's constituents for a completed EOD session by day change, traded value or volume — a raw sort, not an investment ranking.
PARAMETERS
| Name | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
index | string | No | NIFTY 500 | Index name returned by list_indices. |
metric | string | No | pct_change | pct_change | change | turnover | volume. |
direction | string | No | desc | desc for largest/highest activity or asc for lowest/losers. |

RESPONSE DATA
- Ranked constituent rows for one completed EOD session with price/change/activity fields and the requested mechanical sort context.
NOTES
- Distinct from get_market_heatmap: the heatmap is deliberately market-cap sorted and not return-sortable; this tool explicitly performs caller-chosen raw ranking.
- A sorted mover list is descriptive market data, not a recommendation or signal.
