The February 16 technical screener showed broad and diversified momentum, with several stocks posting large one-day gains and others maintaining extended multi-week uptrends.
In the more than 20 percent daily gain group, FGNX stood out with a 397 percent surge accompanied by heavy trading volume of 36 million shares, marking one of the sharpest single-day advances of February. MGRT followed with a 112 percent jump on nearly 1.8 million shares, a 29,000 percent volume increase. FSLY, WTID, and GLTO gained between 59 and 72 percent with strong follow-through, signaling renewed interest in growth and tech themes. RIME and JDZG each logged 30 percent price increases and massive volume expansions above 15,000 percent, showing significant speculative activity.
In the stocks in overall uptrend for more than 14 days group, LITX led with a 141 percent rise and 2,300 percent volume growth, confirming a persistent accumulation phase. AZN, CONI, and NKTR continued multi-session runs of 90 to 117 percent, showing steady institutional momentum. ETHD, HOOZ, and LTE also sustained 70–90 percent gains with expanding volume trends.
Overall, the screener highlighted expanding market breadth, where both breakout names and longer-trending stocks showed consistent demand, supporting a constructive tone across mid-February trading.
The February 16 options flow screen showed a continuous three‑day rise in the put to call premium ratio across multiple large‑cap and high‑beta names, signaling broad defensive positioning after recent market volatility.
PDD recorded the sharpest move, up 3,167 percent, while T saw an exceptional 2,456 percent increase, both reflecting substantial short‑term protection buildup. FXI and UNP also spiked 1,304 and 915 percent respectively, suggesting increased hedging activity in China exposure and transport sectors. XYZ and DAL followed with gains of 789 and 335 percent, confirming steady premium demand across cyclical names.
Among growth‑focused tickers, ARKK showed a 95.5 percent rise in its ratio to a current value of 24, while RBLX and U rose 314 and 158 percent, marking consistent shifts toward downside coverage in innovation and gaming segments.
The ARKK chart illustrated mild price pressure alongside rising put premiums, confirming measured hedging rather than panic selling. Collectively, the data points to disciplined institutional protection layering, with traders preparing portfolios for potential volatility through the latter half of February.
The February 16 options flow screen showed concentrated institutional activity in CVX and UPS, accounting for nearly all of the session’s notable sweeps.
CVX calls dominated early afternoon trading with repeated buy sweeps at the 170 strike expiring February 20, 2026, each valued around 47 million in premium and totaling more than 100,000 contracts combined. Additional call flows appeared at the 160, 165, and 155 lines, each near 34 million, suggesting structured accumulation rather than speculative buying.
UPS activity centered on the 85 and 100 call strikes for March and February 2026 expirations, where multiple sell sweeps ranging from 28 to 41 million per trade indicated large-scale premium taking after prior advances.
GLD also saw an isolated 38 million call sweep at 475 expiring February 27, 2026, reflecting selective exposure toward metals.
Overall, the tape reflected disciplined two‑way flow: CVX building upside positioning in energy while UPS traders realized call premium and rotated exposure. The pattern suggests controlled re‑balancing rather than directional volatility ahead of the mid‑month macro catalysts.
