Datetime window analyzed (EST): 2026-01-29 13:00 to 15:59 (30-minute bars provided). Note: I did not receive the full past 30 trading days or the last 10 days of daily candles. The analysis below leans on today’s intraday price/volume and short-term momentum tells that typically carry 1–3 days. Where “daily” zones are referenced, they’re approximated using today’s intraday swing levels and obvious round-number supply/demand zones; please cross-check with your daily chart.
Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
– Consumer Discretionary (Travel/Leisure): Standout strength via RCL, which trended up all afternoon, took out prior intraday highs, and closed near the highs with expanding volume into the final hour. That’s classic for 1–3 day continuation.
– Industrials/Aerospace & Defense: Mixed-to-weak into the close. LMT and TDG faded after mid-session strength (supply stepped in above 634 on LMT and ~1428 on TDG). HON held firm and preserved most of its gains—more constructive relative strength within diversified industrials. MOD also softened late.
– Semiconductors/Equipment: Split tape. UCTT printed a higher high (48.66) and finished constructive; SITM faded steadily and closed weak, suggesting rotation into equipment/legacy-cap names rather than the high-beta timing names today.
– Financial Exchanges: CME and CBOE drifted lower/sideways with no decisive accumulation—profit taking/indecision.
– Energy (E&P): EGY had a steady bid, closing near session highs—small-cap energy showing quiet accumulation.
– Biotech/Health: VIR and FDMT were muted ranges—no broad risk-on in spec biotech today. PRE also quiet.
– Microcap/illiquid tickers (TOYO, PMAX, QTTB, ORKT, SBIT, CONI): Idiosyncratic pops and late-day pushes (PMAX, QTTB) but liquidity is thin; ORKT had a blow-off spike and sharp fade—treat as day-trade only, not swing.
Noticeable intraday patterns
– Late-day strength and closes near highs: RCL, AMPX, EGY, UCTT. These often see morning follow-through next day.
– Fades from midday highs: LMT, TDG, SITM—watch for either day-2 bounce-to-sell or lower-high setups.
– Sideways holds with tiny value-area drift: HON, LFUS—can break with a modest catalyst.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
– Most likely to go up: RCL, UCTT, AMPX, EGY, HON, LFUS.
– Strongest bullish signals today: RCL (range expansion + close near highs), AMPX (heavy volume, absorbed dips, closed well), UCTT (higher high, held bulk of gains), EGY (quiet higher close near high).
Individual Stock Analysis
Notes:
– Supports/Resistances are derived from today’s intraday highs/lows and nearby round-number daily zones.
– Entries favor pullbacks to support or breakouts through resistance on volume.
– Stops set just beyond nearby invalidation levels.
– Targets anchor to visible resistance and a modest range extension. Adjust with your daily ATR.
1) RCL
– Support: 342.05 (15:00L), 341.00–341.95 zone, 339.77 (14:30L).
– Resistance: 346.07 (intraday H), 348.00, 350.00–352.00 zone.
– 30-minute outlook (2–3 days): Expect a bull flag or ORB-type continuation. If 342–343 holds on early dip, odds favor a push through 346 toward round-number magnet 350. Failure to hold 339.8 shifts to range-chop 336–344.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 346.5, 349.5–350.5, stretch 353–355 if momentum broadens.
– Entry ideas: Pullback buy 342.5–343.5 with confirming higher low; or breakout buy >346.20 on volume.
– Stop-loss: 339.40–339.80 (below pullback low/flag base).
2) UCTT
– Support: 47.90 (14:30C), 47.60–47.80 zone, 47.43 (13:00L).
– Resistance: 48.37–48.47 (15:00H/13:30H), 48.66 (session H), 49.00–49.50.
– 30-minute outlook (2–3 days): Constructive higher-high/higher-low day favors follow-through. Expect early retest 48.0–48.2; hold there and reclaim 48.5–48.7 sets up 49+.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 48.65–48.80, 49.20, stretch 49.80–50.20 on range expansion.
– Entry ideas: Pullback buy 47.95–48.10; or breakout >48.70 with volume.
– Stop-loss: 47.35–47.45 (below pullback shelf).
3) AMPX
– Support: 13.28–13.30, 13.06–13.10 (session floor), 12.90 (round-number cradle).
– Resistance: 13.45–13.56 (intraday H zone), 13.80, 14.00–14.20.
– 30-minute outlook (2–3 days): Strong liquidity day with dip absorption. If 13.30 holds, look for a squeeze through 13.56 to 13.8+. Weakness only if it loses 13.06 and can’t reclaim.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 13.55–13.60, 13.85–13.95, stretch 14.20–14.50 if volume persists.
– Entry ideas: Pullback buy 13.30–13.36; add on breakout >13.57.
– Stop-loss: 13.03–13.05 (below session floor).
4) EGY
– Support: 5.11, 5.08–5.10, 5.00 (psych level).
– Resistance: 5.185–5.20 (intraday H zone), 5.25–5.30, 5.50.
– 30-minute outlook (2–3 days): Quiet accumulation profile; look for a tight flag under 5.20, then a measured push toward 5.30. Slower mover; expect grind rather than spike.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 5.22, 5.30, stretch 5.45–5.50.
– Entry ideas: Bids 5.12–5.16 on light pullbacks; add through 5.21–5.22 if volume.
– Stop-loss: 5.03–5.05 (below shelf and round number).
5) HON
– Support: 226.40–226.62, 225.75–225.90, 225.00.
– Resistance: 226.98 (intraday H), 227.52, 228.50–229.00.
– 30-minute outlook (2–3 days): Steady relative strength vs A&D peers; a tight range under 227.5 suggests breakout potential. A hold above 226.5 early favors 228 test.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 227.50–227.80, 228.50–229.00, stretch 230.00 if group catches a bid.
– Entry ideas: Pullback buy 226.0–226.6; breakout buy >227.55.
– Stop-loss: 225.40–225.60.
6) LFUS
– Support: 323.43–323.71, 322.73, 321.50 (round-number buffer).
– Resistance: 325.27, 326.06, 326.68; above that 328.00.
– 30-minute outlook (2–3 days): Sideways but constructive; buyers defended mid-323s, and late-day push reclaimed 324–325. Look for a grind higher into 326–327.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 325.80–326.20, 327.00–328.00, stretch 329.50–330.50 if it clears 328 with volume.
– Entry ideas: Pullback buy 323.9–324.5; add on push >326.10.
– Stop-loss: 322.40–322.70.
Additional quick reads (not on the “likely up” list)
– NUE: Rangey afternoon; needs a decisive break >179.50 on volume; otherwise chop 178–179.
– LMT, TDG: Late-day fades; watch for lower-high sells into strength next session unless they immediately reclaim 628+ (LMT) and 1426+ (TDG).
– SITM: Weak close; rallies into 366–368 are potential sell zones unless it reclaims and holds 371.
– CME, CBOE: Soft; need a catalyst or volatility uptick to trend.
– Microcaps (PMAX, QTTB, ORKT, TOYO, SBIT, CONI): Liquidity risk high; treat as day-trade only.
Risk management reminders
– Given the lack of full 10–30 day context, lean smaller size on initial entries; scale only after confirming continuation.
– Respect stops; many names are extended intraday and may backfill early next session before continuation.
– Use premarket and first 30–60 minutes tomorrow to confirm volume alignment with the scenarios above.
