Next-day directional probability forecast Last updated: 2026-11-05 (ET)
Next-session outlook for 2026-11-06 (ET)
Bearish lean, but not actionable

What the model sees

The model still sees a directional lean, but the edge is not thick enough after adjusting for reward/risk.


Why the model says this

The model does not deploy this setup because the directional lean exists, but the edge is still not thick enough after risk adjustment, reward/risk remains too thin at -0.10 after adjustment, the setup already looks stretched, recent price behavior has shown failed reversal memory, and there is meaningful next-session pullback or digestion risk. Predictability is 40%, agreement is 100%, and reversal risk is 34%.

NOTE: This next-day up/down probability forecast module is still being tested for accuracy. Please do not rely on it for investment decisions. The model does not account for black swan events or company-specific fundamental news, and its estimates are based solely on technical conditions, capital flow, and market sentiment.

Short covering could add extra momentum to price moves. Price is already trending lower (20D return -8.3%). The current configuration reflects active downside pressure rather than latent structural fragility.

Risk Summary

Why Price Reactions May Be Stronger?

Days-to-Cover is elevated versus its own history, but absolute short interest remains moderate. Adaptive thresholds applied to liquidity weakness, near-high detection, and compression sensitivity. As a result, similar news or market events could lead to price moves about 2× larger than usual.


Note: Short interest data is reported every two weeks by FINRA. The most recent snapshot is 2026-10-15 (ET).
