📊 INTRADAY WATCHLIST PERFORMANCE REVIEW – AUGUST 31, 2026

Published on: August 31, 2026

Watchlist Overview

The August 31, 2026 intraday watchlist was a 10-name, catalyst-first tape focused on micro- and small-caps rather than broad index strength. Leadership clustered in healthcare names with same-day filings and IP news (RDHL Talicia divestiture, AIM Ampligen/Keytruda patent, SY Q2 aesthetic-services beat), with AI-infrastructure (MOVE data-center expansion, WETO squeeze) and high-RVOL leftovers (VVOS, WBUY, AEHL, NCRA, YDDL) filling out the list. Floats ranged from sub-1M squeeze vehicles (WETO 0.91M, AEHL 1.15M, NCRA 1.35M) to more liquid mid-float names (SY 57.83M, AIM 30.30M, MOVE 27.28M). Scanner conditions favored FGI-style continuation only in names that stayed green versus the official open, held VWAP, and kept elevated regular-session volume; gap-and-crap fades in the first 30–60 minutes were explicitly called out as avoid setups.

Lessons: The real money on August 31 was in the low-float squeeze vehicles that kept expanding after the open—WETO, NCRA, and AEHL—while several high-profile gap names printed their daily high at or near the official open and then failed to continue.

Final Thoughts

August 31 delivered a clean 10-for-10 hit rate versus the official open, but the quality of those hits was highly uneven: total P/L of +237.8% and a +23.78% average were driven almost entirely by three low-float continuation/squeeze names (WETO +94.2%, NCRA +47.3%, AEHL +25.4%), while headline healthcare catalysts RDHL, VVOS, WBUY, YDDL, and SY produced orderly double-digit opens-to-highs and MOVE and AIM essentially topped at the open. The watchlist theme was correct—same-day filings, IP news, and leftover RVOL in micros—but the session confirmed the page’s own rule set: FGI-style continuation only paid in names that stayed bid after 9:30, and the biggest official-session range expansion came from the sub-1.4M float runners rather than the most liquid news names. Takeaway: the August 31 process found the right tape, but traders who treated every gap as a runner left the bulk of the day’s edge on the table; the edge was identifying which catalyst names were still expanding versus open instead of distributing from the first print.
