Has Sonic bottomed?

A confirmed swing low is evidence of a price pattern, not proof of a final market bottom. Here is what the S snapshot records on 2026-10-21 UTC:

Monthly: the last confirmed swing low is $0.0190 from 2026-06-30. The current candidate is marked confirmed. The latest monthly bar is still forming.

Weekly: the last confirmed swing low is $0.0369 from 2026-10-04. The current candidate is marked confirmed. The latest weekly bar is still forming.

Daily: the last confirmed swing low is $0.0492 from 2026-10-18. The current candidate is marked confirmed.

How bottom confirmation works. Cycle-low confidence is a heuristic score, not a calibrated probability of a profitable trade.
