52W Highs/Lows (Post)

Overview​

The 52W Highs/Lows (Post) profile shows the day's new 52-week highs and lows after the close, with every box the same size and colored by the combined change from the previous close including post-market movement. It is the end-of-day tally of the market's fresh extremes, with after-hours reactions layered on top.

The post-market color adds a twist the closing print misses: a stock that broke out to new highs during the day but is selling off hard after hours shows up red inside the highs camp, an immediate signal that the breakout is being challenged.
