Today’s CPI print showed airfares jumping 4% m/m, and the whole airline complex squeezed: UAL/DAL/AAL +8–10% intraday. I’m treating this as a “pricing power shock” trade — looking for either a continuation day or a fade back into the gap. Process: I start with a quick MarketCrunch scan to surface the strongest single-stock momentum, then drill into intraday structure. For UAL, I want to see post-gap balance hold above prior day VWAP with declining sell volume; for DAL, I’m watching a shallow pullback that respects the first leg’s 50–61.8% retrace. If breadth and volume fail on the first pullback, I’ll downshift to mean-reversion setups into the opening gap. Risk is fuel and headline-sensitive; size accordingly.
