How it traded

Gap, run and fade. It gapped up 24.6% to 0.6075 at the open, ran from the open to the high of 1.13 in 121 minutes through 3 halts, then gave back 61% of that move by 4:00 p.m., trading at 0.8091.

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.

The day in numbers

• From news to the move: the first trade 20% above the previous close came 14 hours 32 minutes after the latest news item before it (Seeking Alpha, Aug 13, 6:47 p.m.).
• Volume, from the one-minute bars: 4.20 million shares before the 9:30 a.m. open (5%), 18.95 million in the first 30 minutes (21%), and 68.75 million in the rest of the day to 8 p.m. (75%).
• Float rotation, the volume since 4 a.m. against the float of 90.22 million shares: past it once at 4:19 p.m.
• The halt at 9:31 a.m.: up 48.4% in the 5 minutes into it, reopened at 0.8190, down 2.5% from the last trade before it, then up 3.6% over the next 5 minutes.
• The halt at 9:57 a.m.: down 12.2% in the 5 minutes into it, reopened at 0.8000, down 2.4% from the last trade before it, then down 1.9% over the next 5 minutes.
