Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
Analyzed window (EST): 2025-10-01, 13:30–19:30 ET, using 30-minute prints and late-session/after-hours tape.

Tape takeaways by sector/industry from the provided list:

• Semis and storage (ASML, KLAC, NVMI, MU, STX, WDC, WOLF): constructive-to-bullish micro-structure. STX and WDC pushed/held near session highs into the after-hours; MU was steady with mild upticks. Fab-equipment (ASML, KLAC, NVMI) churned near highs with orderly pullbacks—sign of underlying demand rather than liquidation.
• Cyber/software (CRWD, ZS, SNPS, APP): mixed. CRWD held ~500 with tight AH prints (constructive). ZS pushed to 305.9 then faded to 301.3 late—overbought intraday cooling. SNPS faded below afternoon highs. APP grinded higher into AH—a relative-strength standout in software.
• Biopharma and life-science tools/CROs (ICLR, IQV, DHR, MEDP, TMO, WAT, ABBV, LLY, REGN, MDGL, MRUS): clear rotation into CROs/tools—ICLR, IQV, DHR stair-stepped higher with rising afternoon volume and closes near highs. Big Pharma/large-cap biotech mixed-to-soft late (LLY, REGN, MDGL faded).
• Industrials/engineering (URI, TT, EME, FIX, VMI, POWL): largely consolidating near highs with two-way trade; no distribution signals. POWL/EME/FIX posted healthy intraday ranges and held most of the gains.
• Clean energy and related (BE, FLNC): firm. BE bounced off 90.3 and advanced into AH; FLNC climbed steadily across prints—accumulation tone.
• Crypto sensitivity (COIN, BKKT): risk-on bias with COIN upticking into AH toward 347+; constructive for continuation if crypto stays bid.
• Small/mid-cap momentum (AVAV, GDRX, ANGX, ABCL, NUKK): AVAV trended strongly to new intraday highs and closed firm; GDRX advanced steadily with growing volume; ANGX stair-stepped higher late; NUKK broke out >8.59 into 8.65. ABCL had a sharp spike (to 7.94) then retraced—high-volatility watch.

Broad pattern: rotation into CROs/tools (ICLR, IQV, DHR), persistent bid in select semis/storage (STX, WDC, MU), defense/military tech (AVAV) showing momentum, and constructive action in clean energy (BE, FLNC). Mixed but improving risk appetite shows up in COIN and small-cap momentum tickers.

Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
Most likely upside continuation candidates based on late-session momentum, closing position vs. range, and AH follow-through:

• AVAV (defense/military tech) – strong trend day, closed at highs.
• ICLR and IQV (CROs) – range expansion higher with strong closes.
• BE (clean energy) – bounce with AH strength.
• COIN (crypto proxy) – held higher and advanced AH.
• STX (storage) – pinned near highs with steady tape.

Strongest bullish signals: AVAV, ICLR, IQV.

Individual Stock Analysis
Note: Key levels derived from today’s intraday structure and obvious round-number supply/demand. Use your platform’s daily chart to confirm confluence.

1) AVAV

• Supports: 345.0–345.5 (intraday shelf), 341.0 (15:30 pullback area), 338.9 (session low zone).
• Resistances: 348.3 (HOD/close), 352.0, 356.0.
• 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Prefer early pullback-and-hold above 345, then a push through 348.3 for a trend continuation day. If it gaps, watch 348.3 reclaim for momentum.
• 1–3 day targets: 352, 356, stretch 362 (using ~9–10 range potential from today’s move).
• Entries:

– Conservative: 345.2–346.0 on a higher low.
– Momentum: 348.4–349.0 on confirmed breakout with volume.

• Stop loss:

– Swing: below 340.5 (beneath demand and today’s deeper pullback).
– Tight/momentum: below 346 on failed breakout.

2) ICLR

• Supports: 191.0–191.3 (late-day support), 189.9 (prior pivot), 188.3 (afternoon higher low area).
• Resistances: 192.6 (HOD), 194.0, 196.0.
• 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Look for a shallow dip into 191–191.5, then a push through 192.6; sustained trade above 192.6 opens a measured leg into 194–196.
• 1–3 day targets: 194, 195.2, 196 (using ~5–6 recent range potential).
• Entries:

– Pullback: 191.2–191.6 with rising 30-min support.
– Breakout: 192.7–193.0 with expanding volume.

• Stop loss:

– Swing: below 189.7.
– Tight: below 191 on failed reclaim.

3) IQV

• Supports: 202.1 (14:30 close), 201.4 (14:00 close), 200.5 (session low pivot).
• Resistances: 204.1 (HOD), 205.0, 206.5.
• 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Trend continuation favored if 202–202.5 holds early. Break over 204.1 likely triggers 205–206.5 supply test.
• 1–3 day targets: 204.1, 205.5, 206.5.
• Entries:

– Pullback: 202.2–202.7 with higher low confirmation.
– Breakout: 204.2+.

• Stop loss:

– Swing: below 200.4.
– Tight: below 201.9 on failed hold.

4) BE

• Supports: 90.6 (intraday support), 90.3 (session low), 89.8 (buffer if volatility expands).
• Resistances: 91.5 (session high), 92.0, 93.2.
• 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Continuation if it holds >90.6 and reclaims/holds >91.5. Expect stair-step advance in clean energy names if sector bid persists.
• 1–3 day targets: 92.0, 92.8, 93.2 (today’s ~1.2 range as baseline; allow 1.5–2 if momentum builds).
• Entries:

– Pullback: 90.7–90.9 with tight risk.
– Breakout: 91.6–91.7 on strength.

• Stop loss:

– Swing: below 90.2.
– Tight: below 90.6 after breakout failure.

5) COIN

• Supports: 346.0, 345.5 (session base), 344.8 (buffer).
• Resistances: 347.5 (HOD), 350.0, 353.0.
• 30-min outlook (2–3 days): If crypto stays firm, look for a 346–346.5 higher-low base and a push >347.5. Round-number magnet at 350; break there targets 353.
• 1–3 day targets: 348.8, 350.0, 353.0.
• Entries:

– Pullback: 346.0–346.5 with BTC/ETH in risk-on mode.
– Breakout: 347.6–348.0 with volume expansion.

• Stop loss:

– Swing: below 344.7.
– Tight: below 345.8 if breakout fails.

6) STX

• Supports: 257.3 (intraday shelf), 257.0 (session low area), 256.2 (buffer).
• Resistances: 258.0 (HOD), 259.5, 262.0.
• 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Constructive basing near highs. Expect a push through 258 leading to 259.5; if semis/storage stay firm, 262 becomes viable in 1–3 days.
• 1–3 day targets: 258.8, 259.5, 262.0.
• Entries:

– Pullback: 257.2–257.4 with tight risk.
– Breakout: 258.1–258.3 on confirmation.

• Stop loss:

– Swing: below 256.1.
– Tight: below 257.0 on failed hold.

Notes and risk management

• The dataset provided reflects the latest session/after-hours micro-structure; 10–30 day context (higher-timeframe supply/demand) should be confirmed on your daily chart to refine levels/ATR.
• For momentum follow-through, insist on:

– Early higher lows above noted supports
– Volume expansion on breakouts
– Sector confirmation (e.g., CROs/tools for ICLR/IQV; semis for STX; crypto for COIN; clean energy for BE)

• Size smaller in the first entry; add only on confirmation. Keep stops just beyond the nearest invalidation level to respect 1–1.5x the recent 30-min swing risk.
