Day change

How much the price moved since the previous session’s close.

Why it matters

One day’s move is mostly noise. It matters when it comes with news, earnings or unusual volume.

How to read it

Green means up, red means down. Cluenex shows the change from the last close; before the market opens it shows the previous session.
