Momentum Turn Watch
Bollinger Squeeze
Bollinger band width (3.7%) 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.

What would change this verdict
What needs to turn for this to become buyable — the top failing checks across the legend council:
- Minervini 1.1 Price > 150-day MA AND 200-day MA — Price $27.60, MA150 $27.77, MA200 $27.34
- Minervini 1.5 Price > 50-day MA — Price $27.60 vs MA50 $28.52

- O'Neil M: Market in confirmed uptrend — Market phase: uptrend_under_pressure
- Weinstein Volume expansion above average — Volume ratio 1.08x
- Weinstein Relative strength ≥ 60 — RS 53
Minority view — the council disagrees here
- Minervini: avoid Trend-template read: fails Price > 150-day MA AND 200-day MA.
- O'Neil: avoid CANSLIM read: fails L: RS rank ≥ 80 (IBD leadership).
- Weinstein: watch Stage-analysis read: Stage 2 is present; 3 supporting checks need improvement.

Legend Score · rates the stock
Neutral (54/100) — held back by institutional footprint
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%) 53
- Trend Template (25%) 75
- Institutional Footprint (20%) 34
- EPS Growth (15%) 50
- Quality (SMR-like) (15%) 50
RS rank 53: middle of the pack — no leadership yet. Trend template 6/8: passes the uptrend screen, structure intact. Institutional score 34: mild distribution — sellers active. No recent earnings growth data — scored neutral. No sales/ROE data — scored neutral. Updated 2026-10-13.

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 (74/100, 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:
5 of 9 legends are Watching — building, not yet a confirmed buy.
