Overall Sector and Industry Analysis (EST range analyzed: 2025-11-25 15:00 to 2025-11-26 11:00)
– Note: The data provided is intraday for roughly one trading session plus pre/post-market prints (not a full 30 days). The commentary focuses on momentum and relative strength visible in this window.
- Industrials/Logistics (SAIA): Showed clean gap-and-go strength with higher highs/higher lows into mid-morning and persistent bid. This points to broad constructive tone in trucking/less-than-truckload. Ticker: SAIA.
- Financials/Advisory & Data (EVR, FDS): EVR trended steadily higher, reclaiming and holding the 319–320 handle; FDS was firm but range-bound. This suggests selective strength in financials, favoring advisory/boutique banking momentum over data vendors today. Tickers: EVR, FDS.
- Consumer Cyclical (Auto Retail) (GPI): Methodical climb off the open, holding gains. Indicates continued demand in auto retail despite a higher absolute price. Ticker: GPI.
- Healthcare/Biotech (HLF, EXAS, MRSN): HLF posted a decisive range expansion with heavy volume and a higher-low structure intraday—clear relative strength. EXAS grinded higher in a tight range (institutional tone, low beta). MRSN remained illiquid/flat. Tickers: HLF, EXAS, MRSN.
- Communication/Telecom (CCOI): Strong expansion day with high relative volume and a firm close just under the intraday high—bullish continuation setup. Ticker: CCOI.
- Small-cap momentum (CRCD, VELO, SFHG): CRCD and VELO printed strong range expansions with rising volume early, then consolidated—classic intraday momentum signatures. SFHG is an illiquid sub-dollar name with spike risk; treat as speculative. Tickers: CRCD, VELO, SFHG.
- Mixed/Flat (SION, FIGS): Both traded tight/hesitant—no confirmation of momentum continuation. Tickers: SION, FIGS.
Notable intraday patterns:
– Breakout-and-hold: SAIA, CCOI, EVR.
– Range expansion followed by bull flag: HLF, CRCD, VELO.
– Tight, controlled grind: EXAS, GPI.
– Low-liquidity/whipsaw risk: CRCD, VELO, SFHG, MRSN.
Ticker Performance Prediction (next 2–3 days)
– Most likely upside continuation: HLF, CCOI, SAIA, CRCD, VELO, EVR.
– Strongest bullish signals today: HLF (volume-led expansion, closes near highs), CCOI (high-volume expansion and strong close), SAIA (trend day holding upper range), EVR (steady trend reclaiming 320).
Individual Stock Analysis and Trade Plan (1–3 day swing)
Levels are derived from intraday pivots and obvious round-number supply/demand zones given the limited history provided.
HLF
– Supports: 13.00 (round/now-turned support), 12.65 (prior breakout level), 12.47 (10:00 low). Invalidation: 12.23 day low.
– Resistances: 13.27 (intraday high), 13.50 (psych/next supply), 13.80 (extension).
– 30-min outlook (2–3 days): Favor an opening consolidation 13.00–13.20, then a push through 13.27; sustained holds above 13.27 open up 13.50. Failure to hold 13.00 likely tests 12.65 before buyers step back in.
– Price targets (1–3 days): 13.27, 13.50, stretch 14.00 (~near one recent day’s range above).
– Entry ideas: Tier in near 13.00–13.08 on a controlled pullback; add on 13.28–13.32 breakout/hold.
– Stops: Tight: 12.88; Swing: 12.58; Last-resort/invalidation: <12.23.
–
CCOI
– Supports: 19.00 (round), 18.85 (10:30 pullback zone), 18.32–18.41 (morning base).
– Resistances: 19.33 (intraday high), 19.50, 20.00.
– 30-min outlook: Expect an early test of 19.00–19.10; holds there favor a 19.33 break and trend continuation toward 19.50. Lose 18.85 and price likely revisits 18.40 demand.
– Price targets (1–3 days): 19.33, 19.55–19.60, 20.00.
– Entry ideas: 19.00–19.10 on pullback with reversal candle; breakout add through 19.35 with volume.
– Stops: Tight: 18.82; Swing: 18.58 (below the 18.6 shelf).
–
SAIA
– Supports: 282.60 (10:30 pivot), 280.85 (10:00 low), 279.20 (pre-open print). Deeper: 275.75 session low.
– Resistances: 284.04 (HOD), 286.00 (round/next supply), 290.00.
– 30-min outlook: Look for a tight bull flag 282.6–284.0; break/hold above 284.0 targets 286. A dip to 281–282 that is bought quickly keeps trend intact.
– Price targets (1–3 days): 284.0–286.0, 289–291 (≈1 day’s recent range).
– Entry ideas: 282.0–282.8 pullback-to-hold; add on 284.10 breakout with rising volume.
– Stops: Tight: 280.70; Swing: 279.40; Invalidation: <275.70.
–
CRCD
– Liquidity caution: thin tape; size down and use hard stops.
– Supports: 54.50–54.60 (10:00 pullback), 53.23 (pre 08:30 pivot), 52.80 (09:00 close/support).
– Resistances: 55.66, 56.20 (HOD), 57.00.
– 30-min outlook: Expect a sideways-to-up bias 54.6–55.6; a push through 55.66 likely retests 56.20, where a brief rejection then higher-low would set up 57+.
– Price targets (1–3 days): 56.20, 57.00, stretch 59.50–60.00 (≈one recent-day range).
– Entry ideas: 54.60–55.00 on controlled dip; breakout add above 55.70 with time-and-sales confirmation.
– Stops: Tight: 54.20; Swing: 53.10; Invalidation: <52.70.
–
VELO
– High volatility microcap; slippage risk.
– Supports: 5.50–5.52 (closing cluster), 5.41–5.43 (10:00–10:30 lows), 5.10 (open pivot). Invalidation: 4.96 day low.
– Resistances: 5.60–5.65 (intraday top), 5.80, 6.00.
– 30-min outlook: Look for a tight flag 5.48–5.58; reclaim/hold 5.60 triggers 5.80 test. If 5.41 breaks, expect 5.10–5.20 sweep before bounce attempts.
– Price targets (1–3 days): 5.65, 5.90, 6.10 (≈recent range).
– Entry ideas: 5.47–5.52 pullback with higher-low confirmation; breakout add through 5.61 on volume.
– Stops: Tight: 5.38; Swing: 5.24; Invalidation: <4.96.
–
EVR
– Supports: 319.45–319.65 (late-morning shelf), 318.33 (10:30 low), 317.60 (first 30-min close).
– Resistances: 320.07 (HOD area), 322.00, 325.00.
– 30-min outlook: Favor an opening test and hold of 319.5; break/reclaim 320 opens a measured move to 322. Lose 318.3 and price likely revisits 317.6 demand.
– Price targets (1–3 days): 320.5–322.0, 324–325 (≈recent daily range).
– Entry ideas: 319.5–319.9 pullback-to-hold; add on 320.10 breakout that holds a 30-min close.
– Stops: Tight: 318.90; Swing: 317.40.

Additional quick notes on the rest
– EXAS: Constructive but very tight (101.12–101.61). Better as a low-vol trend follow; upside likely incremental. Consider buying dips near 101.45 with 101.30 stop for 101.80–102.00, but risk/reward is modest.
– GPI: Slow grinder; pullbacks to 410–411 can be bought for 413–415 if market/sector tailwinds persist.
– FDS: Range-bound; needs 280+ resolve for momentum; otherwise choppy.
– FIGS, SION, MRSN, SFHG: No clean continuation signal in this window or liquidity too thin; avoid unless you specialize in microstructures.
Risk management
– Size positions relative to volatility (use smaller size for CRCD/VELO).
– Respect invalidation levels; if first hour fails to confirm (no higher low, breakout fails on volume), step aside and reassess.
– If the broader market is risk-off, tighten stops and reduce targets across the board.
