Recent Cost Distribution Last updated: 2026-03-25 (ET)

This reading is based on the last 20 trading days of 15-minute price, volume, and VWAP data. Price is trading 7.3% below the recent estimated cost basis of 19.13, so the recent structure is still leaning under pressure. Price is above the main cost band (16.00 to 17.18), which keeps the recent structure constructive, although extension risk starts to matter more from here. The lower down support area sits around 16.07 to 17.11. It looks more like a first buffer than a major floor. The higher up selling area sits around 18.14 to 18.26, so rebounds may begin to slow as price pushes into that zone. There is also a nearby thin-trading zone below between 17.22 and 17.53, so downside can speed up if support fails and price drops into that area. Recent positioning looks fairly balanced, with 40% in profit and 60% under water. From a trading point of view, the structure is still best read by comparing price with the main cost band first, then watching whether the lower support zone or higher supply zone becomes the next directional checkpoint.

Note: Short interest data is reported every two weeks by FINRA. The most recent snapshot is 2026-02-27 (ET).
