Key Takeaways

  • Volume Skyscraper as a Signal: Massive volume on a day with relatively small price movement (like the late April dip) is often a “tell” that selling has exhausted and institutions are moving in.

  • The Power of Earnings Gaps: A 20% gap-up on 9 million shares suggests institutions no longer care about hiding their intent—they are “paying up” for a position, which usually leads to multi-day or multi-week follow-through.

  • Context Matters: While Dan typically avoids stocks below the 200-day moving average, the sheer scale of the volume and the volatility squeeze breakout make this a high-probability “exception” trade.

  • Institutions Don’t Day Trade: When large funds commit to a stock after a long decline, they are building a position over time. This creates a “tailboard” effect where pullbacks are likely to be met with aggressive buying.

The Atlassian Awakening—How to Spot a $TEAM Reversal

The 80% Beatdown is Over

Atlassian ($TEAM) has had a “hell of a beating” over the last year and a half, losing 80% of its market value. For most investors, that’s a reason to look away. For technical traders, it’s the setup for a massive opportunity. As Dan Fitzpatrick explains, the “bottoming process” became visible in early April when a massive volume skyscraper hit the tape, signaling the end of the supply glut.

Trading the Institutional Footprint

When a stock gaps up 20% on 9 million shares, it sends a loud message: the “smart money” is done accumulating in the shadows. They are now competing for shares in the open market. Institutions don’t day trade; they build positions for the long haul. This means that today’s breakout isn’t just a flash in the pan—it’s a fundamental change in character for the stock.

The MOMO Battle Plan

For those looking to trade $TEAM tomorrow, the strategy is simple but disciplined. We are looking for a move above $87.32. If it clears that level, the momentum is confirmed. If it pulls back, don’t ignore it—watch for buyers to step in at the prior “launchpad” levels near $75. High-volume breakouts like this rarely fail immediately; they create a “memory” in the market that acts as support.

Mastering the Opening Rotation

Capturing these moves requires more than just a daily chart; it requires understanding the Opening Rotation. This is where we separate the professionals from the gamblers. By analyzing the first hour of trading, you can spot where the institutions are placing their bets for the day.
