Validate against your daily chart before executing.
- Industrials/Aerospace-Logistics showing relative strength:
- FTAI (Aviation leasing/services) trended higher all session, making higher highs into 257.46 with persistent bids.
- WWD (Aerospace components) stair-stepped higher with tight dips and strong reclaim behavior around 329–330.
- XPO (Logistics) held a steady up-channel, repeatedly bought near 147 and pressing toward 147.7–147.9.
- LFUS (electronic/industrial components) pushed to new session highs near 282.9, showing accumulation on dips.
- Mixed within the broader industrial complex: FIX chopped and faded mid-session, MTZ and MYRG were choppy/neutral, KEX flat-to-soft. Net read: rotation favors aerospace/logistics and select industrial electronics (FTAI, WWD, XPO, LFUS).
- Tech/Semis and industrial tech mixed to soft:
- SLAB and SIMO trended lower intraday; NOVT and LWLG were flat-to-sideways.
- PLXS (EMS) was a standout gainer, trending to 172+ on rising volume—an outlier of strength within electronics manufacturing.
- Health Care/Biotech mixed:
- MRNA led with a strong push from sub-38.0 to 39.4 before a controlled pullback—constructive.
- RVMD, TMDX, and MEDP showed intraday heaviness or chop—lack of follow-through.
- Energy/Shipping:
- NINE (OFS microcap) attempted a breakout to 0.5077, then a controlled pullback—high-risk/high-reward tape.
- EOSE (energy storage) gave up highs and faded—signs of distribution.
- INSW (tankers) modest strength; KEX (marine transport) range-bound.
- Consumer:
- W (e-commerce) trending up and holding gains; BC (marine/leisure) range-bound; ONEW (recreation/retail) faded.
- RCAT (defense/drone tech) posted a high-volume expansion, consolidating above 13—momentum money rotating into defense/dual-use tech.
- Notable patterns:
- Breakout-and-hold: PLXS, FTAI, RCAT.
- Trending channels: XPO, LFUS.
- Coil with range expansion: NUAI.
- Distribution/fade off highs: EOSE, SIMO, SLAB.
- Controlled pullback after impulse: MRNA, RCAT.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 trading days)
– Most likely to continue higher: FTAI, PLXS, RCAT, NUAI, MRNA, LFUS, XPO, W.
– Strongest bullish signals today: PLXS (trend + volume), FTAI (higher highs + persistent bid), RCAT (high-volume expansion and hold above 13), LFUS (trend continuation), XPO (orderly channel). MRNA shows constructive risk-on biotech rotation with a higher-low structure.
Individual Stock Analysis
Note: “Daily” support/resistance below is inferred from the provided intraday highs/lows and nearby whole/half-dollar supply/demand zones; confirm on your daily chart. ATR-based targets use today’s observed true range as a proxy.
1) FTAI
– Key support: 255.7–255.9; 255.0–255.1; 254.7
– Key resistance: 256.2; 257.0–257.5; 257.46 (HOD)
– 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Expect a buy-the-dip continuation while price holds above 255. A quick retest of 256.2/257.0 likely; sustained bids can probe through 257.5 toward new highs.
– Price targets (1–3 day swing):
– T1: 257.5 (near HOD/supply)
– T2: 259.0 (ATR extension)
– T3: 261.0 (1–1.5x today’s range)
– Entry: 255.2–255.8 on pullbacks into prior breakout area.
– Stop-loss: 254.6 (below 13:00 swing low) or tighter 255.0 if momentum entry.
2) PLXS
– Key support: 170.2; 169.95–170.0; 168.6
– Key resistance: 171.7–171.8; 172.12; 173.0
– 30-min outlook: Trend intact. Favor shallow pullbacks to 170–170.5, then push through 171.7/172.1. If 172.1 converts to support, extension to 173+ is on deck.
– Price targets:
– T1: 171.8–172.1
– T2: 173.0
– T3: 174.0–174.5 (approx 1x today’s range)
– Entry: 170.2–170.6 retests; add on 171.8 break-and-hold.
– Stop-loss: 169.7 (below round-number shelf) or 168.9 (beneath session demand).
3) RCAT
– Key support: 13.10–13.22; 13.02; 12.84–12.90
– Key resistance: 13.46; 13.90; 14.00
– 30-min outlook: High-volume expansion with afternoon consolidation. Expect an opening test of 13.10–13.20 demand; holds there favor a run at 13.46 then 13.90. A clean break/hold above 13.90 opens 14+.
– Price targets:
– T1: 13.46
– T2: 13.90
– T3: 14.40–14.75 (0.5–1.0x today’s range extension)
– Entry: 13.10–13.25 on dips; momentum add on 13.46 break-and-hold.
– Stop-loss: 12.80 (beneath base); tighter traders 12.98.
4) NUAI
– Key support: 4.24–4.30; 4.20–4.22; 4.16
– Key resistance: 4.37–4.40; 4.43 (HOD); 4.50

– Price targets:
– T1: 4.40–4.43
– T2: 4.50
– T3: 4.65–4.70 (0.5–0.7x today’s range extension)
– Entry: 4.22–4.30 support retest; add on 4.40 reclaim.
– Stop-loss: 4.12 (below session floor).
5) MRNA
– Key support: 38.59–38.60; 38.94; 38.37
– Key resistance: 39.24; 39.34–39.40; 40.00

– Price targets:
– T1: 39.34–39.40
– T2: 39.80
– T3: 40.30–40.60 (0.8–1.0x today’s range extension)

6) LFUS
– Key support: 281.0; 280.3; 279.4
– Key resistance: 282.6–282.9; 283.5; 285.0
– 30-min outlook: Trend day with controlled pullback. While 280.3–281 holds, expect retest of 282.6–282.9 and potential grind into 283.5–285 over 1–3 days.
– Price targets:
– T1: 282.6–282.9
– T2: 284.0–285.0
– T3: 287.0 (about 0.8–1.0x today’s range extension)
– Entry: 280.6–281.2 pullbacks; add on 282.6 break/hold.
– Stop-loss: 279.6 (below intraday demand).
7) XPO
– Key support: 147.0–147.2; 146.62; 146.5
– Key resistance: 147.54–147.70; 147.89; 148.50
– 30-min outlook: orderly up-channel. Expect dips to be bought near 147.0–147.2; a push through 147.7–147.9 unlocks 148.5 in 1–2 sessions.
– Price targets:
– T1: 147.7–147.9
– T2: 148.5
– T3: 149.2 (0.5–0.8x today’s range extension)
– Entry: 147.05–147.25; momentum add through 147.70.
– Stop-loss: 146.45 (below channel support).
8) W
– Key support: 118.01–118.20; 117.63; 117.36
– Key resistance: 118.68–118.80; 119.20; 120.00
– 30-min outlook: Grind higher with higher lows. Holding 118.0–118.2 should see a push through 118.7–118.8; acceptance above 118.8 points to 119.2 first, then a 120 magnet within 1–3 days if market risk-on persists.
– Price targets:
– T1: 118.8–119.2
– T2: 120.0
– T3: 121.2 (0.8–1.0x today’s range extension)
– Entry: 118.0–118.2 on pullbacks.
– Stop-loss: 117.4 (below intraday demand).
Notes and risk management
– Several other names showed weakness or distribution (EOSE, SIMO, SLAB, RVMD, TMDX). For momentum longs, avoid until they reclaim key intraday levels with volume.
– Microcaps (e.g., RCAT, NINE, NUAI) can gap and wick; use smaller size, hard stops, and avoid chasing breakouts without a retest.
– Because full 30-day daily data weren’t provided, validate the listed daily S/R against your daily chart and adjust ATR-based targets to your instrument’s current 14-day ATR.
