How it traded

Gap and fade. It gapped up 10.2% to 2.33 at the open and traded below the open by 4:00 p.m., at 2.21.

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.
