Momentum Turn Watch
Bollinger Squeeze Bollinger band width (4.8%) 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 1.5 Price > 50-day MA — Price $172.58 vs MA50 $173.83
  • Minervini 1.8 RS rank ≥ 70 (prefer ≥ 85) — RS rank 55
  • O'Neil C: Quarterly EPS acceleration ≥ 25% — -74.5% QoQ
  • O'Neil L: RS rank ≥ 80 (IBD leadership) — RS rank 55
  • Weinstein Relative strength ≥ 60 — RS 55
  • Weinstein Stage 1→2 breakout on expanding volume
Minority view — the council disagrees here
  • Minervini: avoid Trend-template read: fails Price > 50-day MA.
  • O'Neil: avoid CANSLIM read: fails C: Quarterly EPS acceleration ≥ 25%.
  • Weinstein: watch Stage-analysis read: Stage 2 is present; 2 supporting checks need improvement.
58 Neutral
Legend Score · rates the stock Neutral (58/100) — 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%) 55
  • Trend Template (25%) 88
  • Institutional Footprint (20%) 63
  • EPS Growth (15%) 29
  • Quality (SMR-like) (15%) 34

RS rank 55: middle of the pack — no leadership yet. Trend template 7/8: price above rising 50/150/200-day lines — textbook uptrend structure. Institutional score 63: mild accumulation. EPS growth reads -1%, but trailing earnings are negative — that percentage is an artifact, capped. Quality 34: weak fundamentals (sales growth 30, return on equity 46, leverage 20). Updated 2026-10-23.

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 (71/100, 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: 6 of 9 legends are Watching — building, not yet a confirmed buy.
