From 11:00 it bounced as high as $5.79 at 11:03, then at 11:06 it started down again, and an ask wall of up to 50,501 shares (2.0% of the float) formed at $5.40. It was $4.92 at 11:07, $4.42 at 11:14, and dipped to $4.16 in the 11:27 minute.
Afternoon: a sixth halt and the close

It reopened at 1:01 p.m. at $3.17, below the halt price and under the $3.37 close from the day before. The 1:01 minute low was $3.16.
At 1:20 p.m. it dropped from $3.61 to $3.23 in a minute, with an ask wall of up to 42,921 shares at $3.56. A second ask wall, of up to 33,643 shares at $3.29, appeared at 1:22. Both were pulled by 1:23. The low of the day was $3.14 at 1:23 p.m.

To the close, 6.58 million shares traded: the float changed hands about 2.6 times, at about 189 times normal volume.
What to take from it
- A halt can reopen higher than it stopped, and the first seconds after cost more than the screen says. The third halt stopped at $5.58 and reopened at $6.41. A 5,000-share buy a second later averaged $6.42 against $6.23 on screen.
- After the top, the next push stopped lower. $6.86 in the 10:32 minute, then $6.50 at 10:34. The bid walls under the price were pulled within minutes.
- The move was gone by the afternoon. It closed at $3.76, 45% below the $6.86 high, after dipping under the previous close of $3.37.
