Overall Sector and Industry Analysis (EST window analyzed)
- Data window analyzed: 2025-10-09 from 10:30 to 13:00 EST (30-minute bars provided). Note: No 10–30 day history was included; commentary below emphasizes the most recent intraday price/volume character to frame 1–3 day swing plans. Validate levels against your daily chart.
Sector/Industry takeaways from the basket
- Biotech/therapeutics led risk-on: Multiple names printed higher highs on rising or sustained volume and held mid-day pullbacks: VKTX, QURE, NGNE, GLUE, RLAY, CRVS, ZBIO. Pushes came with clean intraday flags and controlled retracements—classic near-term momentum setups.
- Materials/miners under pressure: LEU (uranium), ALB (lithium), METC (met coal), ASTL (steel) faded with lower highs and expanding supply on dips—suggests money rotating away from commodities in the very short term.
- Tech/others mixed: RGTI showed massive liquidity but range-bound chop; GSAT faded after a push; OSS trended down intraday. Financials/ADRs (PWM, HIFS, ATEYY) were illiquid or weakening—avoid for short-term momentum until liquidity/structure improves.
Notable intraday patterns
- Biotech continuation attempts:
– VKTX: successive higher highs into 34.75 with shallow dips—buyers defending 34s.
– QURE: trend day up to 64.9–65.1, pullback held 64s.
– NGNE: breakout through 31.41 on volume spike (12:30 bar).
– GLUE: morning push to 8.51, consolidated above 8.34.
– RLAY/CRVS: steady grind with higher lows; dip buyers active near session VWAPs.
- Commodity complex weakness:
– LEU heavy intraday range with lower highs and lower lows; ALB persistent fade to new session lows; METC failed to reclaim 46.40 after early selloff.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 trading days)
Most likely to push higher (bullish bias):
- VKTX, QURE, NGNE, GLUE, RLAY, CRVS
Strongest bullish signals: VKTX, QURE, NGNE (clean momentum, volume expansion on pushes, shallow pullbacks).
Individual Stock Analysis and Trade Plans
Assumption: Short-term daily ATR (est.) from today’s realized range and typical behavior:

Use your daily chart to refine.
1) VKTX
- Context: Higher highs to 34.75; buyers defending mid-34s.
- Key support: 34.55–34.60, 34.10, 33.52
- Key resistance: 34.75, 35.20, 36.00
- Next 2–3 days: Favor a continuation attempt toward 35.2–36 if 34.55 holds; failure back through 34.10 risks a VWAP/33.8–33.5 test before reattempt.
- Entries:
– Pullback buy 34.10–34.20 (prior base) if bid holds
– Breakout add/entry >34.80–34.85 with tape confirmation
- Stops:
– Tight: below 33.94
– Wider swing: below 33.50
- Targets (1–3 days):
– T1: 34.75–34.90
– T2: 35.20–35.50 (≈+0.6 to +0.9)
– T3: 36.00–36.30 (≈1x–1.2x ATR)
2) QURE
- Context: Trend up to 64.9–65.1, pullback supported around 64.0.
- Key support: 64.00, 63.50, 62.80
- Key resistance: 64.81–65.12, 66.00, 67.20
- Next 2–3 days: If 64 holds, expect a retest of 65–66; sustained over 65.1 opens 66–67+ (ATR room).
- Entries:
– Pullback buy 64.10–64.30
– Breakout >65.10–65.20
- Stops:
– Tight: below 63.90

– T2: 66.00–66.40
– T3: 67.20–67.80 (≈1x ATR)
3) NGNE
- Context: Strong breakout through 31.41 on volume; minor close-back to 31.13—healthy if 31 zone holds.
- Key support: 31.00, 30.40, 29.65
- Key resistance: 31.41, 32.00–32.20, 33.00–33.50
- Next 2–3 days: Holding 31 likely brings 32–33 extension; losing 31 risks 30.4 retest before another push.
- Entries:
– Retest buy 31.00–31.10
– Breakout add >31.45–31.50
- Stops:
– Tight: below 30.85

- Key resistance: 8.48–8.51, 8.65, 8.80
- Next 2–3 days: Expect range contraction then attempt through 8.50; a close above 8.51 sets 8.65–8.80.
- Entries:
– Pullback buy 8.30–8.35
– Breakout >8.52 with volume
- Stops:
– Tight: below 8.20

– T3: 6.90–7.00 (≈0.8–1x ATR)
6) CRVS
- Context: Steady grind; push to 7.255, higher low structure intact if 7.16–7.18 holds.
- Key support: 7.18, 7.16, 7.08
- Key resistance: 7.22–7.26, 7.30, 7.45
- Next 2–3 days: Look for a break through 7.25 toward 7.30; if volume expands, extension to 7.45 is feasible.
- Entries:
– Pullback buy 7.16–7.18
– Breakout >7.26
- Stops:
– Tight: below 7.12
– Wider: below 7.08
- Targets:
– T1: 7.25–7.28
– T2: 7.30–7.35
– T3: 7.45 (≈1x ATR)
Additional quick notes (tactically avoid/neutral)
- LEU, ALB, METC, ASTL: Near-term weak—lower highs, sellers in control; wait for basing.
- RGTI: Liquidity is huge but structure is choppy; day-trade only until a clean break/hold over 45.7–46.2 or under 44.7.
- OSS, PWM, ATEYY, HIFS: Weak or illiquid today—avoid swing entries.
Risk management
- Size positions so a stop just beyond the second support costs <1R of your plan; consider scaling entries around first and second support.
- If breakouts trigger but immediately stuff and lose breakout level on rising offer volume, cut fast—failed breakouts have been punished today in non-bio names.
