How it traded

Intraday run. It opened down 7.6% at 3.26, then ran from the open to the high of 5.28 in 261 minutes through a halt.

The shape is a fixed rule, not a judgement: gapped 10% or more at the open, ran 10% or more from the open to the high, and faded if it gave back 30% or more of that move by the close.
