What happened

Draft for review. Not published.

Five quiet hours

No news came, and for five hours THH barely moved. It opened at $2.30 and reached $2.81 at 10:00, then drifted below that.

A test of $2.81

Stop It's 2:58 p.m. THH is at $2.79. It hasn't traded above $2.81 so far today, and the float is 3.09 million shares. Would you buy here?

Press play: the real Level 2, tape and chart run from 2:55 p.m. and stop at 2:58 p.m. ET for your call.

It broke out, and at 2:59:43 it was halted at $3.80. It reopened at 3:13:15 at $4.35 and hit $4.99 that minute.

A 25K-share ask wall at $5.75 was pulled at 3:15:12.

A new wall at $5.79

Stop It's 3:16 p.m. THH is at $4.46, down from $4.99 three minutes ago. A new ask wall has appeared at $5.79. Would you buy here?

Press play: the real Level 2, tape and chart run from 3:13 p.m. and stop at 3:16 p.m. ET for your call.

It bounced only to $4.67. The $5.79 wall was pulled at 3:16:56. At 3:17:27 it halted again at $3.72 and reopened 3% lower.

A last push stalled at $4.65, and it closed at $3.08, 38% below the high.

What to take from it: Both halt reopens filled well above the screen price, and each push after the $4.99 top stopped lower.
