We should pay attention to two significant flows. INFLOW: Covering of those holding short positions &amp; OUTFLOW: Rebalancing of local PASSIVEs that failed to remove SillaJen.
Osstem, which was in a similar situation, showed this shooting star pattern on its trade resumption day. Of course, this setup will work limitedly because SillaJen is shorting-restricted.
Nevertheless, SillaJen will likely show this pattern more dramatically in the shooting phase as its short interest is more than three times that of Osstem.
