Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
– Datetime range (EST) analyzed: 2025-11-12 15:30 to 2025-11-13 12:00 on 30-minute bars (plus a 07:30 premarket bar for TC). Note: A full 30-day history was not provided; commentary emphasizes today’s intraday structure and recent momentum proxies.
– Financials and market-structure plays showed steady bid: CME (exchanges), SPGI and FDS (index/analytics) trended higher on stable volume; FCNCA held firm. This speaks to quiet risk-on in financial services.
– Healthcare was mixed but with notable relative strength in services/devices: PGNY (benefits/admin) trended cleanly higher; MEDP (CRO) gapped and held near highs; SYK (devices) and GKOS (ophthalmic devices) firmed intraday after early wobble. Biotech/pharma prints were softer or choppy: DAWN faded after an opening spike, NBIX and LGND slipped, KRYS tried reclaim highs but lacked follow-through.
– Materials/Chemicals were mostly range-bound: SHW and APD were firm but contained; ALB (lithium) showed intraday distribution (weakest of the group).
– Tech/Software was mixed-to-soft: ADBE drifted lower, VRSN flat, EPAM pushed higher with improving momentum (standout within software/IT services).
– Industrials/Aerospace: TDG faded off early highs; WAT (life sciences instrumentation) held gains but didn’t expand range.
– Small-cap/trader-driven flows: SMHI (marine/energy services) had a trend day up on persistent buying; HRTG (insurance) showed range expansion and higher lows. Micro-cap/ETP flows around NVDA proxies were bid (NVDS, NVD, NVDQ), signaling traders are positioning for continued NVDA-related volatility.
– Pattern takeaways:
– Quiet, persistent accumulation in financial services (CME, SPGI, FDS).
– Healthcare leadership tilting to services/devices (PGNY, MEDP, SYK, GKOS) while high-beta biotech names lag (DAWN, NBIX, LGND).
– Select small/mid-caps with clean intraday momentum (SMHI, HRTG) attracted rotational capital.
– Materials split: industrial coatings/gases steady (SHW, APD), lithium weak (ALB).
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
– Most likely to continue higher: PGNY, HRTG, SMHI, CME, MEDP, EPAM, SYK, GKOS.
– Strongest bullish signals today:
– PGNY: Higher highs/lows all morning, accelerating volume into 11:30–12:00.
– HRTG: Range expansion with sequential higher lows and strong retention of gains.
– SMHI: Trend day higher with shallow pullbacks, buyers defending every dip.
– MEDP: Gap-and-hold near highs; consolidating above VWAP throughout.
– EPAM: Intraday breakout reclaiming 182 area with expanding participation.
Individual Stock Analysis
Note: Without 30-day candles, levels are derived from today’s intraday pivots, obvious whole-dollar areas, and nearby supply/demand zones visible on the 30-minute chart. Use these as tactical swing references; refine with your daily chart.
1) PGNY
– Supports: 24.30–24.25, 24.13–24.11, 24.03.
– Resistances: 24.48 (session high), 24.65, 25.00.
– 30-minute outlook (2–3 days): Expect buy-the-dip behavior toward 24.20–24.30, then a push toward 24.60–24.80. A 30-minute close above 24.48 opens 24.80 then 25.00 in 1–3 days.
– Price targets (1–3 day): 24.60, 24.80, 25.00 (roughly 0.5–0.9 above supports based on today’s realized range).
– Entry idea: Scale 24.22–24.32 on a controlled pullback or first 30-min HL above 24.35.
– Stop-loss: 23.95 (below morning base), or tighter 24.05 if seeking higher R/R.

2) HRTG
– Supports: 30.60–30.72, 30.43, 30.15.
– Resistances: 30.91 (session high), 31.00, 31.50.

– Price targets: 31.00, 31.30, 31.50.
– Entry idea: 30.60–30.70 pullback, or breakout retest of 30.90–31.00 if volume expands.

3) SMHI
– Supports: 7.75–7.74, 7.70–7.71, 7.58–7.59.
– Resistances: 7.81 (HOD), 8.00, 8.20.

– Resistances: 603.63, 608.09 (session high), 612.00.
– 30-minute outlook: Gap-and-hold. As long as price holds above 600, expect a retest of 603.6; strength through 604 could drive 606.8–608 in 1–3 days; extension possible toward 612 if volume persists.
– Price targets: 603.6, 606.8, 608.0–612.0.

– Entry idea: 94.00–94.20 pullback; add through 95.10 on expanding volume.

Additional notes
– Runners-up for upside continuation: SPGI, FDS (steady institutional bid); KRYS (needs 203.8+ confirmation).
– Caution/avoid for long near-term: ALB (distribution), AMDL (persistent lower highs), ADBE (heavy drift), KVYO (lower highs/volume fade), NBIX (sell pressure).
Risk management
– Size down in thinner names (SMHI, HRTG, GKOS) and scale out into strength at targets.
– If stop is breached on a closing 30-minute basis, abandon the long; let price rebase before re-entry.
– Because the dataset is intraday-only, validate daily/weekly context and institutional levels on your charts before execution.
