What to take from it

• The highest price of the day can come in the first minute. Here it was $4.09 at 4:00 a.m. Nothing later in the day came back near it.
• At the top, the real cost was above the screen price. At the high, 377 shares were offered at $4.00, and a 5,000-share buy averaged $4.04.
• Most of the volume came before the open. 1.62 million of the day's 2.08 million shares traded pre-market, and the stock ended at $3.08, about a quarter below the high.
