Overall Sector and Industry Analysis
Analyzed window (EST): 2025-12-16 09:30–12:00, 30‑minute bars as provided. Note: You did not include the prior 30 days; below I infer near-term momentum and supply/demand from this intraday slice. Use your daily charts to validate the higher‑timeframe zones.
- Healthcare/Biotech (SRPT, PRAX, JBIO, SANA, TOI): Mixed and choppy. SRPT showed a midday range expansion to 22.97 on heavy volume before pulling back—bullish interest but supply above 22.8–23.0. PRAX trended lower all morning (distribution). JBIO ramped early then faded to the mid-15s (profit-taking). SANA and TOI edged lower with steady volume—no clear bid. Net: selective strength (SRPT); the rest corrective.
- Financials/REITs (MSBI, BAP, ABL, UNIT, COLD): Broadly soft. BAP bled all morning. ABL and UNIT trended down. MSBI’s early pop faded. COLD was tightly range‑bound (12.91–13.04) — consolidation but no momentum. Net: defensive tone, little risk appetite.
- Industrials/Materials (HRI, CRS): Divergent. HRI trended cleanly higher (higher highs/lows, 155.7→157.8) showing relative strength. CRS faded from 326 to ~321—overhang/supply. Net: strength in rental/services (HRI), weakness in specialty materials (CRS).
- Consumer (DLTR, LVWR, EB): DLTR ground higher and held gains—defensive retail bid. LVWR sold off and broke 4.90—risk-off in speculative discretionary. EB was pegged ~4.44–4.45 with very tight tape—no actionable momentum.
- Tech/Software (MDB) and small-cap tech (KDK): MDB drifted lower—no dip buyers yet. KDK stair‑stepped higher (8.66→8.88 test) with constructive pullbacks—watch for breakout continuation.
Notable patterns
– Relative strength: HRI, DLTR, SRPT (volume expansion), PLTU (momentum continuation attempt).
– Weak laggards: CRS, MDB, BAP, UNIT, ABL, LVWR.
– Tight consolidations: COLD, EB (likely catalysts needed).
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 sessions)
Likely upward bias
– HRI (strongest setup; clean higher‑highs with shallow pullbacks)
– DLTR (defensive bid; steady grind, poised for 132.5+ breakout)
– SRPT (if it reclaims 22.35/22.50 after a high‑volume push, can retest 22.9–23.1)
– PLTU (momentum continuation if 81 holds; eye 82.2→83.3)
– KDK (small‑cap breakout watch above 8.88/8.90)
Strong bullish signals: HRI (trend + relative strength), SRPT (volume expansion), PLTU (higher high midday), KDK (constructive basing under breakout).
Individual Stock Analysis (setups likely to work long in 1–3 days)
HRI
– Key support: 157.20–157.30; 156.70; 155.00–155.70 (demand zone)
– Key resistance: 158.60 (session high); 159.50; 161.00
– 30‑min outlook: Holding above 157.2 keeps the uptrend intact. A push through 158.6 likely tests 159.5, then 161. A loss of 156.7 risks a check back to 155.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 159.5, 161.5, stretch 163.5 (approx 1–1.5x today’s intraday range)
– Entries:
– Pullback: 157.2–157.5 with a higher‑low print
– Breakout: ≥158.7 on rising volume
– Stop-loss: 156.2 (tighter), or swing stop below 155.0 (beneath demand)
–
DLTR
– Key support: 131.50; 131.00; 130.70 (demand shelf)
– Key resistance: 132.48; 133.00; 134.20
– 30‑min outlook: Coil under 132.5. Break and hold above 132.5 favor a measured move into 133–134.2. Fade below 131.0 would delay the breakout.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 132.8, 133.5, 134.5
– Entries:
– Pullback: 131.5–131.8 with reversal candle
– Breakout: ≥132.5 with follow‑through
– Stop-loss: 130.9 (tighter), or 130.5 (below shelf)
–
SRPT
– Key support: 22.00–22.05; 21.77; 21.50
– Key resistance: 22.33–22.35 (intraday pivot); 22.85–22.97 (supply from spike); 23.50
– 30‑min outlook: Strong volume push to 22.97 signals interest; need to reclaim/hold 22.35→22.50 to re‑attack 22.85–22.97. Under 22.00 risks a fade toward 21.77.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 22.60, 22.95, 23.40
– Entries:
– Pullback: 22.00–22.10 holding with rising volume
– Breakout: ≥22.50 after a 30‑min close above 22.35
– Stop-loss: 21.70 (beneath demand); conservative 21.48 if wider
–
PLTU
– Key support: 81.00; 80.58; 79.75–79.84 (demand zone)
– Key resistance: 82.20; 83.25; 84.00
– 30‑min outlook: Momentum swing intact if 81 holds. Through 82.20 opens 83.25; above 83.25 targets 84. A break below 80.58 likely tests 79.8 and invalidates near‑term long.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 82.2, 83.0, 84.0
– Entries:
– Pullback: 81.0–81.2 with higher‑low confirmation
– Breakout: ≥82.25 with volume expansion
– Stop-loss: 80.40 (tight), or 79.70 (below demand)
–
KDK
– Key support: 8.70; 8.66; 8.50–8.53
– Key resistance: 8.83–8.88; 9.00; 9.20
– 30‑min outlook: Constructive staircase higher. A clean break of 8.88/8.90 likely tags 9.00 quickly; sustained strength opens 9.15–9.20. Lose 8.66 and price likely revisits 8.50.
– 1–3 day swing targets: 9.00, 9.15, 9.30
– Entries:
– Pullback: 8.70–8.75 with a tight risk box
– Breakout: ≥8.90 on rising 30‑min volume
– Stop-loss: 8.62 (tight), or 8.48 (below base)

Notes and risk management
– Several sectors showed distribution this morning (financials, materials, software). Favor relative strength names and avoid crowded fades.
– Use position sizing and respect stops; many of these are 1–1.5x intraday range swing ideas. Confirm broader daily context (trend/ATR) on your platform since only partial intraday data was provided.
