Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
– Datetime range analyzed (EST): 2025-12-01, 13:30–19:30 EST (AH prints included). Note: Your upload contains intraday/AH bars from a single session, so the commentary emphasizes very recent price/volume behavior and relative strength vs. peers and SPY/QQQ.
- Semiconductors/EDA (AVGO, SNPS, ADI, AMAT, ASML, KLAC, MU, SOXX/SMH/SOXL): Broadly firm-to-bid. AVGO pushed to the top of its AH range (~389), SNPS stair-stepped higher into the close (~443), while MU faded modestly late. SOXL/SMH/QQQ were stable, signaling a supportive tape for semis. Leadership skew: EDA (SNPS) and diversified semi (AVGO) > memory (MU).
- Optical/Comms (COHR, LITE, CRDO): COHR held gains after a strong cash-session ramp and closed near the upper-third of the day’s range—constructive for continuation. CRDO faded intraday after a run; LITE was quiet.
- Precious metals miners/levered ETFs (AG, AGQ, CDE, EXK, HL, FSM, PAAS, SIL, SILJ, SLVP, JNUG, NUGT, SVM, ORLA, SKE): Broad late-day softening and lower closes across the complex (e.g., AGQ 112.40→110.06, SIL/SILJ fading). Near-term momentum cooled; expect digestion/chop unless metals bounce.
- Crypto miners (RIOT, WULF, CLSK, CIFR, BTDR, WGMI, HUT): Weak into the AH window with lower lows/close (e.g., RIOT 15.65→15.54, WULF 15.39→15.28, CIFR 19.75→19.60). Momentum taking a breather; likely headline/Bitcoin-driven.
- Infrastructure/Construction/Contractors (FIX, PWR, EME, DY, IESC): Relative-strength pocket. FIX held near highs (961), PWR coiled just below HOD (452–454 zone), IESC expanded to 406.99 then held ~404. Healthy dips bought; risk-on within the group.
- Consumer/Retail (ANF, RL, URBN, VSCO, PLAY, KSS): Mixed to soft; most closed mid-to-lower range. Not the current leadership.
- Broad market (SPY/QQQ/IVV/VGT): Flat-to-firm but low energy in AH—no risk-off tells.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
– Most likely to push higher: AVGO, SNPS, COHR, IESC, FIX, PWR
– Strongest bullish signals:
– SNPS: Clean higher-lows intraday, closed near highs; continuation setup.
– AVGO: Pressed toward AH highs, potential breakout through 389/390.
– IESC: Range expansion to new local highs and held most of it; buyers present.
– FIX/PWR: Persistent uptrends, tight closing coils under resistance.
Individual Stock Analysis (1–3 day swing plans)
Note: Support/resistance are mapped to obvious intraday supply/demand and nearby daily pivots/psych levels from the session. Use opening liquidity for confirmation.
1) AVGO
– Support: 387.50, 386.50, 385.00
– Resistance: 389.50, 390.00, 392.00
– 30-min view and next 2–3 days: Expect a morning probe of 389.5–390. Clearing/holding 390 turns momentum-trend bullish toward 392–394; failure likely retests 387.5–386.5 and still constructive if buyers defend.
– Entry: 387.7–388.2 on a pullback that holds; or momentum add on 390.10+ hold (30–60 min).
– Targets (1–3 days): 389.5, 391.2, 393.5 (roughly 1.0–1.5x today’s range).
– Stop: 386.40 (tight); swing stop 385.40 (below demand).
–
2) SNPS
– Support: 442.00, 440.50, 439.20
– Resistance: 444.00, 446.00, 448.00
– 30-min view and next 2–3 days: Strong close near highs. A quick backtest of 442–443 that holds often precedes a push to 444–446. Above 446 opens a measured leg to 448–449. Failure through 440.5 shifts to consolidation.
– Entry: 442.2–443.0 on a controlled dip and reclaim; momentum add on 444.20+ hold.
– Targets (1–3 days): 444.8, 446.8, 448.5.
– Stop: 439.90 (below demand).
–
3) COHR
– Support: 163.00, 162.70, 162.00
– Resistance: 164.25, 164.90, 166.00
– 30-min view and next 2–3 days: Bullish structure if 163–163.3 is defended. Reclaim/hold 164.25 should magnet 164.9–166 over 1–2 sessions. Lose 162 and it likely chops lower before refueling.
– Entry: 163.00–163.30 on a dip with higher low; add through 164.30 with volume.
– Targets (1–3 days): 164.3, 165.5, 166.8.
– Stop: 161.90 (closing basis for swing).
–
4) IESC
– Support: 401.00, 398.35, 396.90
– Resistance: 406.99, 410.00, 415.00
– 30-min view and next 2–3 days: Expansion day that held gains—classic continuation candidate. Expect early shake to 401–403; buyers should reappear. Through 407, momentum can carry to 410 then 414–415.
– Entry: 401–403 on flush-and-hold; momentum add >407 with confirmation.
– Targets (1–3 days): 407.0, 410.5, 414.0.
– Stop: 397.00 (beneath demand shelf).
–
5) FIX
– Support: 959.00, 956.60, 953.00
– Resistance: 964.60, 969.00, 975.00
– 30-min view and next 2–3 days: Tight, bullish coil near highs. A hold over 959–960 favors a push into 964.6; break/hold there opens 969–975 over 1–3 days. Lose 956.6 and expect a deeper retest.
– Entry: 959.5–960.5 on constructive dips; momentum add above 964.8 with volume.
– Targets (1–3 days): 964.6, 969.0, 974.5.
– Stop: 955.50 (tight swing).
–
6) PWR
– Support: 451.75, 451.20, 450.50
– Resistance: 453.55, 455.00, 457.50
– 30-min view and next 2–3 days: Coiling just under HOD—often resolves higher if the group stays strong. Through 453.6 opens 455–457.5. A dip into 451.7–452.2 that holds is buyable.
– Entry: 452.0–452.3 first support; breakout add on 453.70+ hold.
– Targets (1–3 days): 454.2, 456.0, 457.5.
– Stop: 450.80 (beneath intraday demand).

Risk/Execution Notes
– Time entries around 9:45–10:15 ET to avoid opening volatility unless you’re trading clear gap-and-go with confirmation.
– Use partials at each target to reduce risk; trail stops under higher lows to stay with trend.
– If SPY/QQQ weaken meaningfully, favor the infrastructure names (FIX/PWR/IESC) for relative strength; if semis lead, overweight AVGO/SNPS and keep COHR on the continuation watch.
