Datetime window analyzed (EST): 2025-09-25, primarily 13:00–16:00. Note: The file you provided contains only intraday bars for the last 2–3 hours of the session. The 30-day and 10-day reads below are inferred from today’s closing behavior (trend into the bell, volume expansion, and supply/demand seen on the daily aggregate candle), not from a full 30-day dataset.
Overall Sector and Industry Analysis:
- Semiconductors led into the close: strength and volume expansion in SOXL (levered semi ETF), TSM, ASML, TER, ACLS, and fab/adapters like SKYT. SOXL ramped with a late push to 34.00 and strong closing prints; TSM/ASML held near highs with shallow pullbacks—classic “accumulation into the bell.”
- Large-cap tech/services steady bid: IBM stair-stepped higher post 15:30 with rising volume. CIEN (optical networking) pushed to session highs late.
- Financials firm: AXP and BLK drifted higher late day, closing near highs—indicative of steady institutional demand.
- Gold/royalty modest risk-on within metals: RGLD pressed to the high-193s into the close, constructive for follow-through.
- EV/China mixed: NIO ground higher but VNET sold hard into 15:30 with a weak bounce—suggesting selective strength in EV versus weakness in China data/e-comm (VNET, NEGG faded).
- Biotech broadly mixed: CRBP late-day push; RAPT reclaimed 25.00 into the close; others (KRYS, BEAM, PRAX) softer/muted.
- Media/real estate lagged: WBD and HOUS faded in the final hour, a defensive tell away from discretionary/media and housing.
- Crypto-linked ETF (ETHD) sold most of the afternoon, only a mild bounce into the close—risk appetite less robust there.
Notable session patterns:
- Late-day momentum continuation in semis (SOXL, TSM, ASML, SKYT) with higher highs and closing strength.
- “Power hour” breakouts or holds in IBM, CIEN, RGLD.
- Distribution into the bell in WBD, VNET, HOUS, KRYS, BEAM.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days):
Likely upside continuation candidates (strongest bullish signals):
- SOXL, TSM, ASML, SKYT (sector leader strength, higher highs into close, expanding volume)
- IBM, CIEN (late-day accumulation and closes near HOD)
- RGLD (metals bid and strong close)
- NIO (steady grind up, closes near highs)
- NB, PONY, MVLL (smaller caps with impulsive late-day pushes and strong closes)
Cautious/avoid for long bias near-term: WBD, VNET, HOUS, ETHD, KRYS, BEAM (selling pressure or weak closes).
Individual Stock Analysis (1–3 day swing plan)

Quick notes on names to fade or wait for better structure:
- WBD: Lower highs and heavy late-day sell—prefer reclaim >20.10 with volume before considering long.
- VNET: Sharp sell into 15:30; needs base >11.40 reclaim to negate downside momentum.
- ETHD: Heavy intraday selling; only a tepid bounce—avoid long unless >4.26 is reclaimed with broad crypto strength.
- KRYS, BEAM, PRAX: Weak closes; wait for reversal signals (engulfing or strong volume reclaim of intraday supply).
Trading approach for the next 1–3 days:
- Focus on the semi leadership (SOXL, TSM, ASML, SKYT) and quality tech (IBM, CIEN). Prioritize pullback entries to clearly defined supports, or momentum adds through well-identified intraday lids with volume confirmation.
- Use tight, pre-defined stops at or just below the nearest demand zone. Scale partials into first and second targets; trail stops under higher lows if momentum persists.
