Reason: Security software kept running: $ZS rose 18.89% on the week and $OKTA 9.76%, both closing overbought, with $DDOG also above 70; for ZS this is a sharp repair inside a still-negative year. $INTU bounced 7.71% on the week but remains far below its 200-day on a -53.06% year: broken. No dated cause is on file for any of these moves.

Price/RSI Table

As of 2026-10-09. Status reads the 200-day trend first and RSI second; Action is a trend-hold lens: an extended name is never an entry, and a name below its 200-day with a negative year is not a dip.

What Changed Since 2026-10-02

• ZS: up 18.89% on the week and 40.72% on the month at RSI 72.9, now 40.8% above its 200-day, yet still −25.85% on the year with negative alpha. A violent repair inside a broken year, not an intact trend. It filed an 8-K on October 6 (content not on file); news pulled October 8 holds quote pages and its September 3 results only, so the cause is unknown.
• OKTA: RSI 76.5 and 101.1% above its 200-day after a 9.76% week: parabolic, extended.
• DDOG: up 7.11% Friday to 0.25% under its high at RSI 73.4; news last pulled September 11, so not pulled for this move.
• CRWD: up 1.85% on the week, 74.8% above its 200-day on a +116.09% year; the healthiest trend in the group.
• INTU: up 7.71% on the week, including 2.56% on October 7 with no cause on file (October 7 market brief), but 21.2% under its 200-day; the long trend stays broken.
• Roster unchanged since October 2: no entrants, no dropouts.

Watch

Three of five names close overbought; the setup is a flag after the run, not this print. INTU needs its 200-day back before it is more than a bounce.
