$DRCT — 111.7% LONG MOVE After Clean After-Hours Breakout
Friday, January 23, 2026
Introduction
On Thursday, January 22, 2026, $DRCT hit the LONG SIGNAL of 2.97 during after-hours trading, setting the stage for a powerful continuation move. What started as a controlled after-hours push carried into the next session, where the stock surged to a HIGH OF DAY at 6.29 in the pre-market, locking in a 111.7% LONG MOVE from the original alert. This was a textbook example of momentum building quietly before expanding aggressively once liquidity returned.
The Setup
Leading into the alert, $DRCT had already established a tight base, with candles compressing just above key intraday support. After hours, price held firmly above VWAP, while VWMA flattened and began curling upward, signaling stabilization rather than distribution.
Volume remained steady but controlled — not panicked, not exhausted. RSI stayed elevated but not overextended, indicating room for continuation. This was the kind of structure where price wasn’t chasing — it was waiting.
The Breakout
Once the 2.97 LONG SIGNAL triggered, $DRCT began printing higher lows candle by candle, with buyers consistently stepping in above VWAP. The BREAKOUT was confirmed as volume expanded and candles closed strong, showing conviction rather than wicks.
On Level 2, stacked bids began to appear, offers thinned, and green prints dominated the tape. This wasn’t a one-candle spike — it was an orderly transition from base to trend.
The Pre-Market Surge
As the next session approached, momentum accelerated sharply. RELATIVE VOLUME surged, VWAP reclaimed decisively, and price began extending rapidly with minimal pullbacks. A brief BULL FLAG formed mid-extension, holding cleanly above VWAP before resolving higher.
From there, the move turned PARABOLIC, with wide-range candles stacking on top of each other. RSI expanded aggressively, confirming momentum strength as price pushed into new highs.
This is where preparation paid off — the bulk of the move unfolded in the pre-market, not during the initial alert.
The High of the Day
$DRCT ultimately printed a HIGH OF DAY at 6.29, completing the full 111.7% LONG MOVE from the original signal. At those levels, EXHAUSTION signals became visible.
Heavy SELLING showed up on Level 2, with stacked offers absorbing aggressive buyers. Red prints began slipping into the tape, upper wicks widened, and RSI showed clear overextension, signaling momentum was cooling rather than accelerating further.
That combination marked the natural top of the move.
Technical Takeaway
• LONG SIGNAL: 2.97 after hours
• Total LONG MOVE: 111.7%
• Structure: Base → BREAKOUT → BULL FLAG → PARABOLIC extension
• VWAP / VWMA: Clean reclaim and sustained support
• Volume: Strong RELATIVE VOLUME confirmation
• Momentum: RSI expansion followed by overextension

When we comment on a price move, be aware that this is calculated from the entry signal to the highest or lowest price traded afterwards, including premarket and after hours prices.
