| Time (ET) | What happened |
|---|---|
| 4:00 a.m. | Pre-market high, 17.17 |
| 7:55 a.m. | SEC filing 8-K: 8-K |
| 7:57 a.m. | SEC filing 425: 425 |
| 8:00 a.m. | News (PRNewsWire): Shareholders Approve Evernorth Business Combination; Transaction and Related Private Placements Have Raised Over $1 Billion; Nasdaq Trading Under "XRPN" Expected to Begin on October 8 |
| 9:30 a.m. | The open: 15.95, down 2.7% from the previous close |
| 12:38 p.m. | First trade 20% above the previous close of 16.40 |

| 3:59 p.m. | Last trade before the 4:00 p.m. close, 23.21, 3.3% 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.
