We saw a decent uptick in volume and range expansion last week. And obviously, the RSI is in extreme territory. But I still haven\u2019t seen consecutive gap days, or a major intraday extension from VWAP signaling a likely reversal and blow-off top, and I also haven&#8217;t noticed a major extension and disconnect from its 5-day SMA. So until those boxes get ticked, I won\u2019t be short the name. Alternatively, we see some paper hit, and CAR holds below the prior day\u2019s low &#8211; a change of character &#8211;\u00a0 I would look for a short intraday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-58074\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr-1024x745.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"846\" height=\"615\" srcset=\"\/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr-1024x745.png 1024w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr-300x218.png 300w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr-768x559.png 768w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr-1536x1117.png 1536w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr-610x444.png 610w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr-100x73.png 100w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr-846x615.png 846w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr-1184x861.png 1184w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/carr.png 1552w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 846px) 100vw, 846px\" \/><\/i><\/p>\n<p>*<i>Please note that the prices and other statistics on this page are hypothetical, and do not reflect the impact, if any, of certain market factors such as liquidity, slippage and commissions.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In terms of looking for continuation in several names, but first, I\u2019d need to see a pullback and a fresh entry base:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>NBIS:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Following on from my IA thoughts last week, I\u2019d love to see NBIS pull back toward its 10-day SMA and base for a couple of days, signaling a higher low and stabilization.
