No active breakout tracked — Legend AI monitors daily for pivot-point breaks. What's a breakout?

Published-method rule: Use the top of the active Darvas box near the high as the mechanical breakout boundary.
Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.
Entry trigger
Pro level
Published-method rule: Require price to clear the box top with volume confirmation; movement inside the box remains observation, not a trigger.
Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.
Initial stop
Pro level
Published-method rule: Start below the active box support or the canonical structural stop that proves the breakout failed.
Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.
Trail
Rule-based
Published-method rule: As higher boxes form, raise the stop beneath the newest confirmed box floor; the stop moves up only.
Evidence: Planned management rule; no stored stop or broker order is changed automatically.
Exit / invalidation
Pro level
Published-method rule: Exit when price breaks the active box floor or decisively falls back through the breakout structure.

Forming Patterns (predictive — not confirmed)

Head & Shoulders bearish near confirmation
90% built

Possible head & shoulders top — not confirmed. Watch for a daily close below ~72.61 (neckline) to confirm, with measured-move risk toward ~66.40. A push back above 75.44 weakens the pattern; reclaiming 78.81 invalidates it.

Confirms below 72.61
Invalidates at 78.81
Left Shoulder 75.76
Head 78.81
Right Shoulder 75.44
Neckline 72.61
Target 66.40

LS 75.76 / head 78.81 / RS 75.44, neckline ~72.61, vol_fading=no

Predictive pattern recognition is educational — most forming structures never confirm. Wait for the confirmation level before treating this as a setup.
