Overall Sector and Industry Analysis (EST window analyzed: 2025-10-20 13:30 to 19:30)
Note: Only intraday/after-hours data for 2025-10-20 was provided. There’s no 30-day/10-day history in the file, so the commentary emphasizes today’s price/volume behavior and where momentum may carry into the next 1–3 sessions.
- Semiconductors: Mixed but constructive. Large-caps were range bound (ASML, KLAC, MPWR), AMD flat but firm. Select power/analog showed quiet accumulation (NVTS). Small-cap semi/memory posted a late-day momentum surge with expanding volume (GSIT). Net takeaway: selective strength, especially in smaller, high-beta names (GSIT, NVTS), while mega-caps (ASML, KLAC) held steady.
- Biotech/Healthcare: Mixed. Stable megacaps (ALNY, ARGX) churned. Small/mid caps showed pockets of momentum: ATXS had notable volume ramp into the close; RXRX stair-stepped higher into after-hours; RAPT spiked then cooled but held higher range. HCA saw a sharp after-hours downtick print, suggesting caution in providers.
- Industrials/Capex: Mostly two-way chop in heavyweights (CAT, DE, URI, GNRC, GWW). Standout strength in electrification/EE equipment (POWL pushed to 350.70 after-hours). Theme: suppliers to power/electrification channels bid (POWL) while broader capex held flat.
- Financials: Quiet and tepid (AXP, LPLA range-bound; TFIN faded late).
- Energy/Materials/Metals: TPL faded off an intraday spike; BG balanced; GLD slightly offered after a brief pop—no strong haven bid; crypto-proxy prints modestly firm but not leading (BTDR, QBTZ).
Notable intraday patterns across sectors:
– Late-day accumulation and higher-high closes in momentum small/mid caps: GSIT (semis), ATXS and RXRX (biotech), POWL (electrification supplier), NVTS (power semis). These are the primary momentum candidates for 1–3 day swing setups.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
Most likely to continue up (bullish momentum/structure into the close):
– GSIT, ATXS, RXRX, NVTS, POWL, JBHT, RGTZ
Strongest bullish signals today:
– GSIT: Expanding volume, higher highs, close near session highs.
– ATXS: High relative volume ramp into the bell, closed at highs.
– RXRX: Clean stair-step higher with rising volume into after-hours.
– POWL: Steady climb, new after-hours high print.
– NVTS: Tight constructive range, bid into after-hours.
– RGTZ: Persistent climb with higher highs into the close.
Individual Stock Analysis (setups for 1–3 day swing)
Levels are derived from today’s intraday supply/demand and round-number confluence given the absence of multi-day data. Use opening context to confirm/adjust.
1) GSIT
– Key supports: 14.10, 13.85, 13.40 (day’s early demand area ~13.35–13.45)
– Key resistances: 14.38, 14.98–15.00 (supply/psych), 15.50 (extension)
– 30-min outlook next 2–3 days: Favor early dip-bid above 14.10, then a push through 14.38 for a momentum continuation. If 15.00 clears on volume, look for a fast extension to mid-15s.
– 1–3 day price targets: 14.98–15.00, 15.50, stretch 15.90–16.20 (≈ today’s range extension)
– Entry ideas:
– Pullback buy 14.15–14.20 (risk 13.80)
– Breakout buy >14.40 (risk 14.05)
– Stop-loss: Below 13.85 (tighter), or below 13.40 (below day’s demand)
2) ATXS
– Key supports: 12.10, 12.05, 12.00
– Key resistances: 12.15 (highs), 12.25, 12.50
– 30-min outlook: Strong close with heavy volume suggests a morning test of 12.15; clean through there opens 12.25/12.50. Watch for a brief flush to 12.05–12.10 as a buy-the-dip zone.
– 1–3 day price targets: 12.25, 12.50, stretch 12.80
– Entry ideas:
– Pullback buy 12.06–12.12 (risk 11.96)
– Breakout buy >12.16 on sustained tape (risk 12.05)
– Stop-loss: Below 12.00 (psych and beneath demand shelf)
3) RXRX
– Key supports: 6.77, 6.73, 6.70
– Key resistances: 6.84 (HOD pivot), 6.90, 7.00 (psych)
– 30-min outlook: Expect a dip to 6.75–6.78 then a rotation toward 6.90. A decisive reclaim of 6.84 should invite momentum flows toward 6.90–7.00.
– 1–3 day price targets: 6.90, 7.00, stretch 7.20
– Entry ideas:
– Pullback buy 6.75–6.78 (risk 6.69)
– Breakout buy >6.85 (risk 6.77)
– Stop-loss: Below 6.70 (below day’s base)
4) NVTS
– Key supports: 17.30, 17.26, 17.20
– Key resistances: 17.41 (HOD), 17.50, 17.60–17.70
– 30-min outlook: Tight coil with a slight after-hours bid. Look for an opening push through 17.41; sustained above 17.50 favors a grind to 17.60–17.70. Failed breakout likely back-tests 17.30 support.
– 1–3 day price targets: 17.50, 17.70, stretch 17.90
– Entry ideas:
– Pullback buy 17.28–17.32 (risk 17.18)
– Breakout buy >17.42 (risk 17.30)
– Stop-loss: Below 17.20 (beneath micro-demand)
5) POWL
– Key supports: 349.20, 348.00, 345.50
– Key resistances: 350.70 (AH high), 352.00, 355.00
– 30-min outlook: After-hours strength suggests a test of 350.70 off the open. Hold above 349.20 keeps the uptrend intact; a push through 350.70 can accelerate on thin order books toward 352–355.
– 1–3 day price targets: 352.0, 355.0, stretch 358–360
– Entry ideas:
– Pullback buy 348.80–349.30 (risk 347.80)
– Breakout buy >350.80 (risk 349.40)
– Stop-loss: Below 348.00 (beneath intraday shelf)
6) JBHT
– Key supports: 165.50, 165.24, 165.00
– Key resistances: 166.45 (settlement), 166.55 (HOD), 167.50
– 30-min outlook: Trend held higher range into the close. Early pullback toward 165.50 likely finds buyers; reclaim/hold above 166.45 sets up a probe of 166.55 and 167+.
– 1–3 day price targets: 166.55, 167.50, stretch 168.20
– Entry ideas:
– Pullback buy 165.45–165.60 (risk 165.05)
– Breakout buy >166.50 (risk 166.10)
– Stop-loss: Below 165.24 (day’s low zone)
7) RGTZ
– Key supports: 13.33, 13.27, 13.21
– Key resistances: 13.48 (HOD), 13.60, 13.80
– 30-min outlook: Persistent higher highs/volume into the close. A brief dip to 13.27–13.33 should attract buyers; through 13.48 opens 13.60, then 13.80 on momentum.
– 1–3 day price targets: 13.60, 13.80, stretch 14.00
– Entry ideas:
– Pullback buy 13.28–13.34 (risk 13.20)
– Breakout buy >13.49 (risk 13.33)
– Stop-loss: Below 13.21 (below session demand)
Additional watchlist notes
– NVTX: Big late-session surge; momentum could continue but risk is elevated due to extension and low liquidity—treat as a scalp-to-swing only if it flags above 187.99 with tight risk.
– GSIT/ATXS are the prime momentum candidates; confirm at-the-open volume and tape speed before adding risk.
– HCA printed a sharp after-hours downtick; avoid longs until it reclaims 430+ with volume.
Risk management reminders for 1–3 day momentum swings
– Size smaller in low-float names and trail stops once first target hits.
– If opening gaps move price beyond your planned entry, wait for a 15–30 min pullback/flag rather than chasing the first minute.
– Reassess levels after the first 30–60 minutes as premarket/overnight prints can shift supply/demand zones.
