NIGHT's recent surge is outrageous, but LEO dropping 23% is even more unbelievable. Who can withstand this?

Night, this wave of gains is quite fierce, but I have a feeling it will pull back...

NIGHT's surge is really impressive, but I feel like a dump is coming again. I'm too familiar with this pattern.

Night, this wave of increase is quite fierce, but such short-term surges are usually a sign of a pullback ahead.

NIGHT's recent surge is unbelievable; only 19.2% increase and it's being hyped as the biggest gain? This market really reacts to every little breeze and movement.

Why did NIGHT surge so strongly? Why didn't I buy the dip... If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have played LEO.
