Brand new IPO stock ADYEN is forming a pennant. It can go either way from this point so do only trade it after a breakout. I'm not planning to trade Adyen in the near term because there are big risks involved:
Newly listed stocks can do wild things, so use a tight stop loss.
The free float of this stock is very low. All shares are allocated to institutional investors at the time of subscription. They had to sign a contract which states that they want to hold the shares for several years. Only a small part of the shares can be freely traded (<15%). The price can therefore go up but also go down quickly.
If I were a value investor I would definitely not trade this stock because of the low free float. I think that private investors, in particular, are now pushing up the price and will get trapped with expensive shares.
