Daily Oversold Pullback Williams %R(14) touched -98 1 session(s) ago after a 10% pullback from the 6-month high ($239.24). Price is holding just above the $212.50 support shelf (a prior swing high turned support), with the weekly uptrend intact (30-week SMA $211.23 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 $216.00 vs MA50 $222.30
  • Minervini 2. Quarterly EPS growth ≥ 25% — +15.4% QoQ
  • O'Neil C: Quarterly EPS acceleration ≥ 25% — +15.4% QoQ

  • Weinstein Volume expansion above average — Volume ratio 0.79x

66 Strong
Legend Score · rates the stock Strong (66/100) — 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%) 74
  • Trend Template (25%) 100
  • Institutional Footprint (20%) 57
  • EPS Growth (15%) 30
  • Quality (SMR-like) (15%) 46

RS rank 73: above-average strength. Trend template 8/8: price above rising 50/150/200-day lines — textbook uptrend structure. Institutional score 57: neutral — no clear institutional conviction. EPS up +0% — growing, but below the 25% leadership bar. Quality 46: weak fundamentals (sales growth 31, return on equity 44, leverage 100). Updated 2026-10-14.

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 (86/100, 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.

Method Playbook

Trade it like Zweig EXACT LEVELS · PRO
Zweig D · Watch — The deterministic methodology check is Watch; wait for the failing or incomplete criteria to improve before the trigger can qualify.
Pivot
Pro level
Published-method rule: Use the stock's recent consolidation high — Zweig buys strength in screened growers, not breakdowns.
Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.
Entry trigger
Pro level
Published-method rule: Buy only when the growth screen passes: EPS growth above the market, PEG ≤ 1.5 (reasonable for the growth), insider buying, and RS leadership.
Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.
Initial stop
Pro level
Published-method rule: Define the loss before entry — Zweig's risk rule. Sell when the growth story breaks: earnings decelerate or the valuation stretches past reason.
Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.
Trail
Rule-based
Published-method rule: Hold winners as long as earnings keep growing and the price holds its trend; sell half on a climax run.
Evidence: Planned management rule; no stored stop or broker order is changed automatically.
Exit / invalidation

Forming Patterns (predictive — not confirmed)

Head & Shoulders bearish near confirmation
90% built

Possible head & shoulders top — not confirmed. Watch for a daily close below ~210.43 (neckline) to confirm, with measured-move risk toward ~177.49. A push back above 217.75 weakens the pattern; reclaiming 243.37 invalidates it.
