Momentum Turn Watch

Daily Oversold Pullback Williams %R(14) touched -99 2 session(s) ago after a 8% pullback from the 6-month high ($445.48). Price is holding just above the $403.88 support shelf (a prior swing high turned support), with the weekly uptrend intact (30-week SMA $388.15 and not falling).

Bollinger Squeeze Bollinger band width (9.2%) is in the bottom quartile of its last 120 sessions — Legend's width-percentile squeeze (not a TTM/Keltner squeeze), so volatility is compressed and a sharper move often follows.

Early technical context only. Wait for price, volume, and the canonical setup trigger to confirm; this signal does not change readiness or the setup score.

68 Strong

Legend Score · rates the stock Strong (68/100) — held back by eps growth

Our proprietary 0-100 rating — the answer to Wall Street's black-box scores. Five pillars, each computed from real scan data, each explained below in plain English.

Relative Strength (25%) 89
Trend Template (25%) 88
Institutional Footprint (20%) 64
EPS Growth (15%) 30
Quality (SMR-like) (15%) 44

RS rank 88: beating most of the market. Trend template 7/8: price above rising 50/150/200-day lines — textbook uptrend structure. Institutional score 64: mild accumulation. EPS up +0% — growing, but below the 25% leadership bar. Quality 44: weak fundamentals (sales growth 30, return on equity 40, leverage 100). Updated 2026-10-27.

Legend Verdicts 6 methodology checks

Who would consider this setup, why it qualifies, and what blocks it — calculated from the same deterministic methodology rules used across Legend AI.
How to read the numbers: the setup score (55/100, in the verdict band) rates this trade setup. Each legend's A–D grade rates the same setup against that legend's own checklist — so a high score next to a C grade is not a contradiction. The setup can be strong without fitting that legend's style. When the council disagrees, the verdict band breaks the tie.

Council consensus: 7 of 9 legends are Watching — building, not yet a confirmed buy.

Pro level

Published-method rule: Use the breakout point of a named pattern (flat base, bull flag, ascending triangle, cup and handle, double bottom, symmetrical triangle).
Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.

Entry trigger

Pro level

Published-method rule: Buy the breakout day on 150-200% of average volume. Never pay more than 5% above the breakout point.
Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.

Initial stop

Pro level

Published-method rule: Set the stop 2-3% below entry and sell on bad price action before it is even hit.
Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.

Trail

Rule-based

Published-method rule: Sell 20-30% of the position at +15-20% from the breakout, then trail the rest on the 10/20-day moving average.
Evidence: Planned management rule; no stored stop or broker order is changed automatically.

Exit / invalidation

Pro level

Published-method rule: Out on a break of the 10/20-day MA, a failed breakout back below the pivot, or a reversal pattern — winners are held, laggards are sold fast.
