 This will give you stocks that must have traded at least $2M in total value for each of the past 20 days.  Obviously you can set the time frame and minimum liquidity to anything you like.  I usually also add something like "close above 5" to avoid getting pennies or hurt on the bid/ask spread.
 
 EDIT:  Ooops - you wanted stocks that DID NOT trade daily.  Well, this will tell you what to eliminate.  Or reverse it like this:
 
 
 
 
 Remember also that there is a default setting in SF that will remove stocks with zero volume from your results (check to see if this is enabled in your settings).
