Bollinger Squeeze Bollinger band width (13.1%) 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:

  • O'Neil M: Market in confirmed uptrend — Market phase: uptrend_under_pressure
  • O'Neil I: Institutional sponsorship
  • Weinstein Weekly price coiling (Stage 2 consolidation) — Tightening weekly range confirms base
  • Dennis S1: 20-day Donchian breakout
  • Dennis S2: 55-day Donchian breakout
  • Zanger Named Zanger pattern only — Darvas Box is not one of Zanger's six
Minority view — the council disagrees here
  • Minervini: buyable Trend-template read: all 10 measured criteria pass.
  • O'Neil: watch CANSLIM read: 4/6 pass; improvement is still needed.
  • Weinstein: watch Stage-analysis read: Stage 2 is present; 1 supporting checks need improvement.

Legend Score · rates the stock Strong (76/100) — 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%) 95
  • Trend Template (25%) 100
  • Institutional Footprint (20%) 59
  • EPS Growth (15%) 50
  • Quality (SMR-like) (15%) 50

RS rank 94: top 6% of all stocks — true leadership. Trend template 8/8: price above rising 50/150/200-day lines — textbook uptrend structure. Institutional score 59: neutral — no clear institutional conviction. No recent earnings growth data — scored neutral. No sales/ROE data — scored neutral. 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 (70/100, 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: 1 legend rates this Buyable · 7 watching · 1 avoid.
