  • Setups to watch: a reversal up from the zone bottom, or a break below it.
  • Prior move: NVAX moved down from $10.65 (the last daily swing) to $9.82, about 0.9 ATR. The move is not stretched yet.
  • Reversal check: a hammer or bullish engulfing candle near $9.70.
  • Latest daily candle (Nov 5): Tweezer Top (bearish).
  • Breakout check: RVOL above normal on the break (last day's RVOL: 1.2× on Nov 5).
  • Zone tests: price pushed above the zone top 0 times and fell back, and dipped below the bottom and recovered 7 times. Each test can weaken a zone.
  • Distance: 0.13 ATR to the zone bottom, 2.42 ATR to the zone top (ATR ≈ 0.89).

Why opening range matters

The first minutes after the open carry the most volume and the overnight orders. The opening range shows where buyers and sellers first agreed, and a break out of it often sets the direction for the morning.

How traders use it

  • Opening range breakout (ORB): a close above the range high is read as a long signal, below the low as a short signal.
  • Many traders wait for RVOL above normal and a candle close outside the range, not just a poke.
  • A break that falls back inside the range is a failed breakout; the other side becomes the target.

What happened over the last 10 sessions

  • NVAX closed the day above its 30-minute opening range on 3 of 10 days and below it on 3.
  • On Nov 5 the first close outside the 30-minute range came at 10:00 AM ET, below the range.
  • Gap: NVAX opened Nov 5 at $10.33, a gap down of 3.0% from $10.65; the gap was filled.
  • Round numbers nearby: $9.00, $10.00, $11.00.

Combined conditions

  • VWAP ($9.82) was below the 30-minute range.
  • The delayed price is at the bottom 25% of the daily zone: the reversal and breakout setups are both live.

How to trade around NVAX's opening range levels

1. 30-minute breakoutA 5-minute close above $10.68 after 10:00 AM with RVOL above normal is the breakout signal; back under $10.68 cancels it.
2. 30-minute breakdownA close under $10.07 with volume is the breakdown signal; a fast reclaim is a false breakdown.
