What moved TC stock

Token Cat is the renamed TuanChe, a crypto-flavored rebrand. No filing did this. The stock had collapsed from near $9.50 to a $1.85 close the day before, then ripped to $8.40 premarket on vague AI-partnership chatter. This was a parabolic unwind bouncing, not news.

The mechanics

A 26M float traded 35M shares by 9:32 against a 255K daily average. Day two of a blowout means maximum volatility in both directions, and the +178% gap was the entire story.

The alert window

Stock Pulse flagged it at 9:32 AM at $5.92. The $6.33 high printed in that same minute, up 6.9%. The alert minute was the top. No window. By 9:32 there was nothing left to catch.

How TC's move ended

Within minutes the stock was slammed into the low $4s, chopped violently all day, and closed at $4.77, 19% below the alert yet still up 158% from the prior close, which tells you how absurd the gap was. Reported financials show roughly $6M cash against $185M in liabilities and negative equity, and the crypto-flavored rename is its own tell. Day two of a parabolic blowout doesn't offer entries; the bounce top lasts one minute and the rest of the session cuts both ways.
