Datetime range analyzed (EST): 2026-01-30 11:00 to 2026-02-02 19:30, using the 30-minute prints you provided. Note: the feed only includes partial intraday bars for the most recent session(s), not a full 30-day history. Commentary below emphasizes the latest 1–2 sessions’ momentum and volume signatures, which is what drives 1–5 day swing setups.
Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
– Broad market tone: Risk-on into the close and after-hours. SPY and QQQ stair-stepped higher during the late session/AH (SPY 695.7→697.0; QQQ 626.9→628.5), supporting follow-through in growth/tech (AMZN, COHR, TXN), selective healthcare (UTHR, REGN, GLW as a supplier to devices), and industrials (WAT, FTAI, CMI/JBHT).
– Technology/Growth: Steady, constructive AH bid in AMZN (242.9→244.1) with QQQ strength; networking/optical CIEN pushed AH to 274.4, indicating appetite for breakouts. COHR firmed AH. TXN was slightly higher AH—semis steady.
– Healthcare/Biotech: UTHR broke out above recent intraday highs and closed at session highs (~475). REGN grinded higher through the afternoon. VRTX/LLY were firm/steady. Small-caps (COYA, ALDX, IMNM) were mixed with light liquidity.
– Industrials/Materials: Strong closes in WAT (ramp into 379.6 high), FTAI (sharp reclaim to new highs at the close), CMI/CAT firm to slightly higher, JBHT finished near the highs; MLM/DE were more muted to soft into the afternoon.
– Telecom/Networking: ERIC upticked late on expanding volume into the close; CIEN’s AH breakout stands out in opticals.
– Financials: AXP flat AH; regionals mixed (MCB weaker, BPOP ticked up late).
– Takeaway: Late-day accumulation and AH follow-through in large-cap growth, opticals, select healthcare, and infrastructure/industrial names. That favors continuation attempts in: WAT, UTHR, FTAI, CIEN, REGN, JBHT, GLW, AMZN.

Individual Stock Analysis
Method: Levels are drawn from the latest 30-minute structure (intraday highs/lows, round-number supply/demand). Near-term swing targets use a conservative fraction (≈0.6–1.0x) of the latest session’s intraday range and nearby resistance.
WAT (Waters)
– Supports: 376.2; 375.3; 374.6
– Resistances: 379.6 (session high); 381.0; 383.0
– 30-min read and 2–3 day expectation: Strong late-day push on volume to new session highs; look for a brief backfill toward 377–376.5 followed by another attempt to 380–381. If market remains risk-on, 383 is feasible within 1–3 days.
– Swing targets (1–3 days): 380.0; 382.0; stretch 384.0
– Entry ideas: Tier in on 377.0–376.5 pullbacks; add on reclaim of 379.6
– Stop-loss: 374.4 (below demand and prior low); tighter risk: 375.1 if aiming for quick momentum follow-through
UTHR (United Therapeutics)
– Supports: 472.0–472.5; 470.8; 469.1
– Resistances: 475.7; 477.0–477.5; 480.0
– 30-min read and 2–3 day expectation: Clean afternoon breakout and close near highs; holding >472 keeps momentum intact for tests of 477–480. Dips into 472–473 that are bought should produce higher highs.
– Swing targets (1–3 days): 477.5; 479.8–480.0; stretch 482.5
– Entry ideas: 473.0–472.5 on controlled pullbacks; or breakout add >475.7 with volume
– Stop-loss: 469.5 (below breakout base); more conservative swing stop: 468.8
FTAI (FTAI Aviation)
– Supports: 274.0; 272.6–273.1; 271.6
– Resistances: 275.4 (close high); 277.0; 280.0
– 30-min read and 2–3 day expectation: V-shaped reclaim and new highs into the close; expect an early test of 276–277. If dips to 273.5–274.2 hold, continuation toward 279–280 within 1–3 days.
– Swing targets (1–3 days): 276.8–277.0; 279.0; stretch 280.5
– Entry ideas: 274.2–273.6 first buy zone; add on strength through 275.4

– Resistances: 274.4 (AH high); 276.0; 279.0

– Swing targets (1–3 days): 275.8–276.0; 277.5; stretch 279.0
– Entry ideas: 272.3–271.5 on pullbacks; momentum add above 274.4 with volume

– Swing targets (1–3 days): 244.2; 245.2; stretch 246.7
– Entry ideas: 243.6–243.2 on minor pullbacks; add >244.2

Context and risk notes
– This analysis is momentum-focused off the latest 30-minute structure and late-session/AH tape. Without full 30-day data, ATR references are approximated via recent intraday ranges and nearby supply/demand.
– Continuation odds improve if SPY/QQQ maintain higher highs/higher lows on the 30-minute. A quick risk-off turn in indices invalidates many breakout add-ons—defer to support-based entries and respect stops.
– Liquidity varies (especially AH). Favor regular-hours confirmations on breakouts and use smaller sizing if executing pre/post market.
