despite being a high rank member you sound like you are new to this world.
this here is just another pump. every day  there are a bunch of altcoins that are getting pumped despite what other coins are doing. and then after they are done pumping (which is usually a day or two) they start their dumps and traders move on to the next coin to pump.
if you want examples then just visit coinmarketcap and see these coins every day. today's pump coins are: Protean, Farad, REAL,... and your coin populus is actually in red right now!
