EverHint — High-Momentum Picks - Explosive Volume (with Insider, Earnings & News Overlays) - November 10, 2025

November 10, 2025


What this signal is (quick)

Explosive Volume flags outsized trading activity versus typical turnover (e.g., a surge vs. the 20-day average). The idea: when volume suddenly swells, it often marks institutional participation around catalysts (earnings, guidance, clinical data, partnerships) and can precede follow-through—but it also attracts volatility.

Today’s signals use end-of-day data for November 10, 2025, and this scanner remains experimental while we refine performance tracking.

How we ranked today (reader version)

Trend posture: prioritize names holding near recent highs (progress after the spike).
Overlays: insider net flows (open-market buys − sells, 90d), days-to-earnings, and 30-day analyst-update cadence.
Headlines: most recent corporate news to confirm or challenge the move.

Note: Signals are for educational use and back-testing. We’ll keep tuning signal weights as live data accrues.

Carlo’s Take (EverHint)

Today’s spike list skews Tech + Healthcare. COGT is catalyst-driven with the biggest thrust—high reward but high volatility; wait for orderly basing if you prefer lower risk. FROG shows post-earnings accumulation behavior; continuation is favored while it holds near highs. LYFT’s taxi integration is a fundamentals-adjacent catalyst; monitor legal noise. SMTC has a near-term date (earnings call Nov 24) that can reset expectations. BKD’s PT lift + occupancy trend supports a gradual re-rating, but it’s not a momentum rocket—treat as a steadier grind.

Execution: For explosive-volume setups, I favor tiered entries after confirmation (e.g., hold above a short MA for 1–2 closes). Trim into extension days and respect ATR-aware stops below the post-spike higher low.
