Daily Oversold Pullback
Williams %R(14) touched -97 2 session(s) ago after a 26% pullback from the 6-month high ($1213.56). Price is holding just above the rising 30-week average near $861.10, with the weekly uptrend intact (30-week SMA $861.10 and not falling).
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 $903.70 vs MA50 $981.37
- Minervini 1.7 Price within 25% of 52-week high — 28.0% below 52-week high

- O'Neil S: Base tightness (ATR% ≤ 4.5%) — ATR% 5.64%
- Weinstein Volume expansion above average — Volume ratio 0.88x
- Dennis S1: 20-day Donchian breakout
Minority view — the council disagrees here
- Minervini: avoid Trend-template read: fails Price > 50-day MA.
- O'Neil: watch CANSLIM read: 3/8 pass; improvement is still needed.
- Weinstein: watch Stage-analysis read: Stage 2 is present; 1 supporting checks need improvement.

Strong (74/100) — 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%) 99
- Trend Template (25%) 100
- Institutional Footprint (20%) 60
- EPS Growth (15%) 32
- Quality (SMR-like) (15%) 47
RS rank 98: top 2% of all stocks — true leadership. Trend template 8/8: price above rising 50/150/200-day lines — textbook uptrend structure. Institutional score 60: mild accumulation. EPS up +1% — growing, but below the 25% leadership bar. Quality 47: weak fundamentals (sales growth 34, return on equity 43, leverage 100). 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 (84/100, 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.

Separate score from the Minervini Trend Template (6/8): the Trend Template grades the price structure, this grades the company & leadership (earnings, sales, margins, RS rank). A stock can ride a clean trend while its fundamentals lag, so the two often differ by design — they are not the same checklist.
