How it traded
Intraday run. It opened down 16.1% at 0.4650, then ran from the open to the high of 0.7150 in 365 minutes.
| Time (ET) | What happened |
|---|---|
| 4:00 a.m. | Pre-market high, 0.5456 |
| 9:30 a.m. | The open: 0.4650, down 16.1% from the previous close |
| 1:01 p.m. | First trade 20% above the previous close of 0.5543 |
| 3:35 p.m. | High of the day to the close, 0.7150 |
| 3:59 p.m. | Last trade before the 4:00 p.m. close, 0.6359, 11.1% below the high |
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.
