What would change this verdict

What needs to turn for this to become buyable — the top failing checks across the legend council:

  • Minervini 1.2 150-day MA > 200-day MA — MA150 $214.85 vs MA200 $216.25
  • Minervini 1.8 RS rank ≥ 70 (prefer ≥ 85) — RS rank 64
  • O'Neil L: RS rank ≥ 80 (IBD leadership) — RS rank 64
  • O'Neil C: Quarterly EPS acceleration ≥ 25%
  • Weinstein Stage 2 (Advancing phase) confirmed — Stage 3 (Topping)
  • Weinstein Volume expansion above average — Volume ratio 0.72x
Minority view — the council disagrees here
  • Minervini: avoid Trend-template read: fails 150-day MA > 200-day MA.
  • O'Neil: avoid CANSLIM read: fails C: Quarterly EPS acceleration ≥ 25%.
  • Weinstein: avoid Stage-analysis read: topping (Stage 3) is not an advancing Stage 2.
57 Neutral
Legend Score · rates the stock Neutral (57/100) — held back by quality (smr-like)

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%) 64
  • Trend Template (25%) 62
  • Institutional Footprint (20%) 68
  • EPS Growth (15%) 50
  • Quality (SMR-like) (15%) 30

RS rank 64: above-average strength. Trend template 5/8: mixed — some uptrend elements, some missing. Institutional score 68: mild accumulation. No recent earnings growth data — scored neutral. Quality 30: weak fundamentals (sales growth 30). 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 (0/100, 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: 5 of 9 legends are Watching — building, not yet a confirmed buy.
