Continuation Breakout Friday 1PM 10/31/2025

October 31, 2025 5 min read

Overall Sector and Industry Analysis

Datetime range (EST) analyzed: 2025-10-31 from 10:30 to 13:00.

Note: You provided only a mid-day 30-minute window for 10/31. I’m basing near-term momentum and setups on this intraday action as a proxy for 1–3 day swings. Daily supply/demand zones should be validated on your full daily chart.

  • Software/SaaS: Mixed to soft. APPF showed decisive upside momentum and range expansion (235→253), while MNDY, TEAM, ZS faded intraday and APP (AppLovin) trended down. This suggests stock-specific strength (APPF) within a consolidating/rotating group.
  • MedTech/Biopharma large-cap: Generally heavy to flat. ISRG, TMO, WAT, MTD and REGN all leaned lower or churned, while VRTX held steady. Momentum is not broadly risk-on here.
  • Financials: Large-cap cards/banks (AXP, COF) were slightly heavy/sideways; industrials (DOV) and metals service center (RS) were more constructive intraday with higher-lows and pushes into HODs.
  • Materials/Energy: ALB remained weak intraday; AXTI (compound semis/materials) saw high-volume volatility but stabilized above 8.50.
  • Argentina theme: Constructive. ARGT grinded higher and held most gains; CAAP held above the morning spike; CEPU stair-stepped higher. This basket showed the most coherent “group” strength in the window (ARGT, CAAP, CEPU).
  • Small-cap biotech: Rotational spikes with liquidity pockets (CLNN strong; RAPT early volume pop then churn; RCUS faded; SABS light volumes). Risk-on pockets but selectivity required.
  • Micro/illiquid: HLP, CBIO, CINT showed thin tape—avoid unless you specialize there.

Notable intraday trends:

  • Breakout/expansion: APPF, CLNN.
  • Accumulation/steady bid: CEPU, ARGT, RS (to a degree).
  • Faders/pressure: APP, ZS, ALB, ISRG, TMO, RCUS.

Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)

Likely upside continuation:

  • APPF (strongest momentum, range expansion, controlled pullbacks)
  • CEPU (orderly grind, higher-lows, regional theme tailwind with ARGT/CAAP)
  • CAAP (holding gains from morning thrust; within Argentina strength)
  • ARGT (ETF bid supports the Argentina complex)
  • CLNN (momentum continuation candidate; needs orderly consolidation)
  • AXTI (volatile but basing above 8.50 after heavy volume; squeeze potential)

Strongest bullish signals: APPF (clean momentum structure), CEPU/CAAP/ARGT (group strength), CLNN (range expansion + demand), AXTI (high-volume pivot with higher low).

Individual Stock Analysis (1–3 day swing plans)

APPF
Thesis: Breakout-and-hold with strong intraday range expansion and higher highs. Watching for a flag above 247–248 or a 253 break to extend.

  • Support: 247.7–248.0; 245.5; 242.4
  • Resistance: 253.0 (session HOD); 255.0; 260.0
  • 2–3 day price action: Prefer consolidation 247–251 and a push through 253. If 253 reclaims with volume, 255 then 260 are in play within 1–3 sessions.
  • Entries:

– Pullback buy 247.8–249.0 with strength returning on 30-min.
– Breakout buy above 253.2 on expanding volume.

  • Stops:

– Pullback entry: 244.8 (below VWAP/flag base).
– Breakout entry: back below 251.8.

  • Targets (blend of resistance and observed intraday range):

– T1 255.0
– T2 258.5
– T3 260.0–262.0 if momentum persists

CEPU
Thesis: Steady accumulation with higher-lows; Argentina complex bid helps. Looking for continuation above 15.75–15.80.

  • Support: 15.45; 15.33; 15.06
  • Resistance: 15.78–15.80; 16.00; 16.25
  • 2–3 day price action: Base above 15.45–15.55, then attempt through 15.80. A hold above 16 opens 16.20–16.25.
  • Entries:

– Pullback 15.48–15.55 as buyers show.
– Breakout >15.82.

  • Stops:

– Pullback: 15.28
– Breakout: back below 15.55

  • Targets:

– T1 15.95–16.00
– T2 16.20–16.25
– T3 16.40 if group tailwind persists

CAAP
Thesis: Morning thrust held most gains; watching for a reclaim of 22.30–22.35 to trend toward prior intraday highs.

  • Support: 22.15; 22.00; 21.94
  • Resistance: 22.44; 22.60; 22.90
  • 2–3 day price action: Back-and-fill 22.00–22.35, then a push through 22.44 toward 22.60. If ARGT/CEPU continue higher, 22.90 is achievable.
  • Entries:

– Reclaim/hold 22.30–22.35.
– Conservative pullback near 22.05–22.10 with reversal signs.

  • Stops:

– 21.90 (below session base)

  • Targets:

– T1 22.44–22.50

ARGT
Thesis: ETF bid confirmed by steady intraday grind; supports continuation in Argentina equities.

  • Support: 94.16; 94.00; 93.69
  • Resistance: 95.12; 95.50; 96.00
  • 2–3 day price action: Expect digestion 94.2–94.8; a push through 95.12 targets 95.5–96. Risk calms if it holds 94+ on dips.
  • Entries:

– Pullback 94.20–94.50.
– Break >95.15 on volume.

  • Stops:

– 93.85

  • Targets:

– T1 95.10
– T2 95.80
– T3 96.20 if momentum broadens

CLNN
Thesis: High-beta momentum with strong range expansion; needs controlled flag above 11.7–12.0 to avoid round-tripping.

  • Support: 11.73; 11.35; 11.08
  • Resistance: 12.42; 12.80; 13.00
  • 2–3 day price action: Ideal is a tight 30–60 min flag 12.0–12.3, then a through-and-hold above 12.42 toward 12.8–13.
  • Entries:

– Pullback 12.00–12.15 with higher low.
– Breakout >12.45 with volume.

  • Stops:

– 11.48 (below mid-day demand)

  • Targets:

– T1 12.80
– T2 13.00–13.20

AXTI
Thesis: High volume, wide range morning, then stabilization above 8.50. Watch for 8.69→8.90→9.11 squeeze path.

  • Support: 8.50; 8.39; 8.30
  • Resistance: 8.69; 8.90–9.00; 9.11
  • 2–3 day price action: If 8.50 continues to hold on dips, look for tests of 8.69 and 8.90. A daily close above 9.00–9.11 could release a larger move.
  • Entries:

– Pullback 8.50–8.58 with reclaim.
– Breakout >8.90.

  • Stops:

– 8.34 (below session value area)

  • Targets:

– T1 8.90
– T2 9.10–9.15
– T3 9.40 if volume sustains

Optional, slower-moving add: RS
Thesis: Industrial tape constructive; RS pressed into HODs intraday.

  • Support: 281.28; 280.06; 279.00
  • Resistance: 282.88; 284.00; 285.00
  • Plan: Buy dips 281.0–281.3 or break >282.9. Stops 279.7. Targets 284.0 then 285.0.

Risk and execution notes

  • Many large-cap healthcare/biopharma names remain soggy; I’m avoiding long swings there until they reclaim intraday VWAPs and break 30-min downtrends.
  • Small-cap momentum (CLNN, AXTI) requires faster risk management and smaller sizing.
  • For ATR-based targets without a 30-day view, I sized targets around today’s realized intraday expansion and obvious supply zones. Validate with your daily ATR.

If you want, share the full 30-day daily candles/volume so I can refine daily supply/demand zones and ATR-derived targets with precision.
