Trend
8
| Distance from the 200-day | not enough price history yet — needs 200 trading sessions | n/a |
|---|---|---|
| 50-day moving average | its average price over the last 50 trading days — a short-term trend line — is $170.86 | $170.86 |
| 200-day moving average | not enough price history yet — needs 200 trading sessions | n/a |
| Swing structure | its recent peaks and dips disagree — one of them is rising while the other is not, so there is no clean up or down pattern in the swings | mixed — one of the two is not confirming |
| Last swing turn | its last significant turn was a swing high 15 calendar days ago — the swings before that are what the structure reading is measured on | 15 sessions |
| Wave structure | its recent swings can be read as a completed three-part upward correction — a pullback in the A-B-C shape Elliott-wave chartists use; the labelling fails if price closes above 195.97. It is the only labelling that fits, and it describes the swings already printed, not what comes next. | possible three-wave upward correction, complete |

| 14-day RSI | momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 32, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30) | 32.1 |
|---|---|---|
| Position in its 14-day range | it is trading near the bottom of its 14-day range ($136.23 to $195.97) — its "stochastic" reading is 6 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been climbing within that range over the last few sessions. | 6.0 |
| Since the MACD crossed zero | MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, is in negative territory (momentum leaning bearish) | 17 sessions |

Volatility
4
| Band width vs its own 6 months | day-to-day price swings are unusually wide versus its own recent history (wider than about 98% of the past ~6 months) | 98th percentile |
|---|---|---|
| Typical daily range | in a typical session it travels about $8.81 between its high and its low — about 6.3% of its price. That is its "average true range" over the last 14 sessions, which also counts the distance from the previous close, so a day that opens well away from yesterday counts as the large move it was | $8.81 |
| Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ) | most of its recent trading has stayed between about $132.38 and $211.23 — the "Bollinger bands", a range drawn two standard deviations either side of its 20-day average price, which widens when the stock gets more volatile and narrows when it settles | $132.38 – $171.80 – $211.23 |
| Typical daily range (% of price) | its price moves about 6.3% in a typical session — more volatile than most companies we cover. This is the average gap between a session's high and low over the last 14 sessions, counting overnight moves, expressed against the current price so it can be compared with companies trading at any price | 6.3% |

Price gaps
3
| Gap at the open | it opened on 2026-10-20 3.7% below the previous session's close — an overnight gap, the part of the move that happened while the market was shut, and had not traded back through that level by the close | -3.7% |
|---|---|---|
| Open gap | it gapped 3.7% below the previous close today and has not traded back through the level it left behind at 142.87 — an "unfilled gap", which describes a price range no trade has since crossed and is not a forecast that it will be crossed | -3.7% |
| Gap filled | a 3.3% gap down opened on 2026-10-16 has been "filled" 1 session ago — price traded back through the level the gap left behind, and it took 1 session to close | 1 session ago |
Price streaks

| Closing streak | it closed lower in its latest session, after a session that did not close lower — a single down day rather than a run | 1 session down |

Signal agreement
2
| Bullish technical signals | 1 of the 5 technical signals we can compute for it is currently in a bullish state: near the bottom of its 14-day range (oversold) — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 1 of 5 |
|---|---|---|
| Bearish technical signals | 3 of the 5 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bearish state: a fresh 20-day low, MACD momentum is negative, a strong downtrend, with sellers in control — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 3 of 5 |
Volume-weighted price
1
| Vs this year’s average price paid | the price is 14% below the average price paid since 2026-07-13, so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $162.60 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 71 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -14.0% |

Wave structure
Its recent swings can be read as a three-part upward correction — the A-B-C shape chartists use for a pullback — now complete.
This labelling fails — stops being a possible reading at all — if it closes above $195.97.
It is the only labelling that fits these swings, though its proportions are not the textbook ones. It was chosen from 3 labellings that survived the rules, counting shorter readings of the same bars.
This reading has stood for 7 trading days, since 2026-10-12.
Read from daily closes as of 2026-10-20.

SKHY had 42,415,066 shares of reported short interest as of the 2026-09-30 FINRA settlement date (delayed, bi-monthly; not real-time).
Short interest as a percent of shares outstanding is not shown for SKHY because we do not hold a verified share count to divide it by. The reported figures above are unaffected.

Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-09-30 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
