| 🎯 Volatility vs. SPY | 100th percentile | higher risk than the market |
| 📈 Market Trend | neutral (-1.0% vs. SMA50) | Challenging market conditions; zones are wider to account for higher risk. |
🎯 Price-Based Trading Zones
This analysis uses PRPH’s historical price patterns to define trading zones based on percentage distances from its 1-month high ($0.43). These zones are adjusted for PRPH’s high volatility (widened for larger swings), recent price behavior (emphasizing data from the last ~6.9 years), and the neutral market environment (wider near-high zones). The zones are based on 55 historical reversal points (21 resistance, 34 support), with recent patterns weighted more heavily (average weight: 0.11).
| Zone | Distance (%) | Price Level | Trading Insight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🔴 Resistance | 2.4 | $0.42 | Avoid buying; strong selling pressure likely |
| 🟡 Caution | 5.9 | $0.4 | Reduce positions or hedge; watch for reversals |
| 🟢 Sweet Spot | 12.2 | $0.38 | Optimal buy zone with 27.0% success rate |
| 💎 Value | 18.5 | $0.35 | Attractive buy on pullback; strong bounce zone |
| 🔵 Deep Value | 23.5 | $0.33 | Potential reversal, but risky; confirm with catalysts |
| ⚠️ Extreme Value | 29.5 | $0.3 | Severe oversold; high crash risk—wait for catalyst |
| 🚨 Crash Zone | >30% | Below extreme | Critical danger zone—avoid unless deep value investor |
📈 Historical Performance: At the optimal distance (12.2% from high), PRPH has historically broken out (made new highs) 27.0% of the time, with a 30.0% chance of crashing (dropping 10%+). The risk/reward ratio is 0.9:1, making the sweet spot favorable.
🎯 Advanced Success Analysis (RFC-011 Phase 2)
This analysis uses two methods to measure historical success when PRPH was in similar price contexts:
📊 Binary Success (Traditional Method)
– What it measures: Did the stock reach NEW all-time highs?
– Rate: 4.4%
– Limitation: All-or-nothing – ignores partial progress
📈 Graded Success (Enhanced Method)
– What it measures: Progress toward the next high, with partial credit:
– 🟢 100% = Made new high (full success)
– 🟡 85% = Reached 85% of the way to new high
– 🟡 75% = Reached 75% of the way
– 🟠 50% = Reached halfway point
– 🔴 25% = Made 25% progress
– ❌ 0% = No progress or declined
– Rate: 30.4%
– Advantage: Shows favorable risk/reward even with conservative targets
| Metric | Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Binary Success | 4.4% | 21 samples – moderate confidence |
| Graded Success | 30.4% | 21 samples – moderate confidence |
| Improvement | +26.0 points | Graded method captures partial gains |
📊 Confidence Breakdown (35.7/100 – Low):
– Sample Size: 16.8/40 points – Based on 17.4 weighted samples
– Quality: 2.7/40 points – Average similarity and recency (0.51)
– Consistency: 16.2/20 points – Low variance = predictable outcomes
🔍 Sample Quality & Reliability:
– Total Samples: 21 similar historical contexts
– Effective Samples: 17.4 (weighted by recency)
– Recent Data: 45.1% from last 3 years
– Raw Rate: 4.4% (before adjustments)
– Cap Applied: No (N/A% max prevents overconfidence)
📊 What This Means: The graded success rate of 30.4% vs binary 4.4% (improvement: +26.0pp) shows that even when $PRPH doesn’t make new highs, it often makes significant partial progress (50-85% of the way), indicating favorable risk/reward even with conservative price targets.

🔍 Confidence: LOW
📈 Historical Success: 0.3
⚖️ Risk/Reward: 0.15
📋 Trading Scenarios
Based on current price position and technical setup, here are actionable trade scenarios with defined entries, targets, and stops:
🚀 Scenario B: Breakout Entry (Momentum)
Best for: Momentum traders wanting confirmation before entry
Entry Conditions:
– Price breaks above $0.43 (1% above high)
– Volume expands (>1.5x average) on breakout day
– Price holds above breakout level for 2+ hours (avoid false breakout)
– Verify OBV rises with breakout
Position Setup:
– Entry: $0.43 (on confirmation) or first pullback to $0.43
– Initial Target: $0.45 (5% extension)
– Extended Target: $0.48 (measured move)
– Stop Loss: $0.42 (below breakout level)
– Position Size: 50-75% (momentum play with confirmation)
Risk/Reward: ~1.6:1 to first target
Why This Works:
– Breakout confirms new uptrend beginning
– Volume expansion validates institutional participation
– Clear invalidation point (breakdown below breakout)
📊 Comprehensive Volume Analysis
Volume analysis provides institutional-level insights into supply and demand dynamics. This advanced analysis combines multiple volume indicators to identify accumulation, distribution, and potential divergences.
On-Balance Volume (OBV) – Cumulative Volume Pressure
📉 Current Trend: Down
10-Day Net Change: -3,005,555
Interpretation: Bearish – OBV declining over 10 days (-3,005,555)
OBV tracks cumulative buying and selling pressure. Rising OBV with price suggests healthy accumulation; falling OBV with rising price may indicate distribution (bearish divergence).
VWAP Multi-Timeframe Confluence
🟡 Confluence Signal: Mixed Signals
| Timeframe | Signal | Weight | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5-Day | Neutral | High | Immediate institutional positioning |
| 14-Day | Neutral | Medium | Swing accumulation/distribution |
| 30-Day | Neutral | Medium | Trend-level volume commitment |
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) represents the average price paid by institutions. Price above VWAP with accumulation suggests bullish control; below VWAP with distribution indicates bearish pressure.
Volume Activity Metrics
➡️ Relative Volume: 1.20x
vs. 20-Day Average: +20.2%
Recent Volume Spikes: 0 in last 30 days
Quality Ratio: 1.01 (Accumulation)
ℹ️ Volume-Price Divergence Analysis
Severity: Mild
Type: Bearish Confirmation (confidence -20%)
Signals:
– 🚨 BEARISH CONFIRMATION: Price falling -16.4% with OBV declining -5.1x avg volume – severe distribution
– ⚠️ EXTREME VOL WATCH: Price falling -16.4% with OBV declining -5.1x (≥0.10× avg) in ≥95th percentile volatility
– 🚨 MAJOR DISTRIBUTION: OBV change is 5.1x average daily volume ($0.0B)
Divergences between price and volume can signal potential reversals or continuations. Monitor closely for confirmation.
💡 Volume Integration with Price Zones
Combining volume analysis with price-based zones enhances decision accuracy:
– Near Resistance + Distribution: High risk—institutions may be selling into strength
– Value Zone + Accumulation: Strong buy signal—institutions building positions
– Breakout + High Volume: Confirms new trend—likely to sustain
– Price Divergence + Volume Divergence: Critical warning—potential reversal imminent
Use volume to validate price zone recommendations and improve entry/exit timing.

- 🌍 Market Context: The neutral market supports potential upside, but PRPH’s high relative volatility (100th percentile) suggests bigger swings—diversify and stay cautious.
🔬 Methodology
This analysis uses the Adaptive Peak Distance Analyzer, a proprietary tool that studies PRPH’s historical price movements to identify optimal trading zones. It calculates:
– 📊 Price Zones: Based on distances from 52-week highs where PRPH historically breaks out or reverses, using 2513 days of data (since ~2018).
– 📈 Volatility Adjustment: Compares PRPH’s 30-day volatility (83.8%) to SPY’s historical distribution, ranking at the 100th percentile, widening zones for safety.
– ⏰ Time Decay: Weights recent price reversals (~6.9 years) more heavily (average weight: 0.11) to reflect current behavior.
– 🌍 Market Regime: Adjusts zones based on SPY’s position (-1.0% vs. 50-day SMA), wider near-high zones.
– 📊 Volume Analysis: When available, integrates volume profile analysis including On-Balance Volume (OBV), Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), and volume-price divergence patterns to validate price movements and identify institutional accumulation/distribution.
– 📏 Metrics: Uses ATR (5.28%) for stop-losses and risk/reward ratios (0.9:1 at sweet spot).
The analysis is robust (2513 samples, “High (Robust dataset)” quality) but focuses on price patterns and volume trends, not fundamental analysis. For broader context, check financial news or analyst reports.
