Falling off a cliff $NOWServiceNow, Inc.NYSE:NOWSizzleTerpzThis trade is based on a failed opening auction rather than chasing strength. With momentum fading into lunch and buyers unable to extend the opening move, the short offered a favorable risk-to-reward setup targeting a retracement of the morning advance. (Stop - Above the failed auction high.) ServiceNow opened with a strong gap higher, but the initial push failed to attract sustained buyers, creating a failed opening auction. After rejecting the highs, price rotated lower and spent the late morning consolidating into lunch, suggesting the early momentum had been exhausted. The preferred setup was to short the failed opening pop once buyers were unable to hold the opening range. The expectation was for mean reversion as trapped longs exited positions and buying volume faded into the lunchtime session.
