At 5:01 a.m. Benzinga ran: “Why Lobo Technologies Shares Are Trading Higher By Around 32%; Here Are 20 Stocks Moving Premarket”. The stock was near $0.70 then, and it gave back to $0.66 in the next few minutes.

What to take from it

• A big ask wall can get eaten after a halt. Here a 571,620-share ask wall appeared at $1.08 after the drop from $1.29, and buyers took it at 10:08:59, right after the third halt.
• Halt reopens can be thin or deep. The 9:53 reopen had 100 shares at the screen price and cost $93 over it. The 10:02 reopen had 60,516 shares at $1.21 and cost nothing extra.
• After the top, the next push stopped lower. $1.29 at 10:02, then $1.17 at 10:09 and $1.07 at 10:19. By the close it was $0.72.
