Legend Verdicts6 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.
Council consensus:
🟡 5 of 6 legends are Watching — building, not yet a confirmed buy.
No active breakout tracked — Legend AI monitors daily for pivot-point breaks.
What's a breakout?
🕯 Latest candle: Bearish Engulfing — Today's down candle engulfs yesterday's up candle — a bearish reversal warning, most significant after an extended advance.
Separate score from the 8-point Trend Template (7/8): 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.
Weinstein C · 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 Stage 1 resistance and the rising 30-week moving average as the Stage 2 transition boundary. Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.
Entry trigger
Pro level
Published-method rule: Require a Stage 2 breakout above resistance on expanding volume; avoid entries while the 30-week average is flat or falling. Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.
Initial stop
Pro level
Published-method rule: Start below the breakout structure or Stage 1 support where a return to the base invalidates the Stage 2 transition. Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.
Trail
Rule-based
Published-method rule: Trail beneath rising 30-week support or later higher swing lows while Stage 2 remains intact. Evidence: Planned management rule; no stored stop or broker order is changed automatically.
Exit / invalidation
Pro level
Published-method rule: Exit on a decisive 30-week support failure or a Stage 3/Stage 4 transition; never treat a failed Stage 2 break as healthy consolidation. Evidence: Canonical setup geometry is available with Pro.

Cup complete, possible handle forming — watch for a quiet 5-15 bar drift on light volume holding above ~108.13 (mid-cup), then a breakout through ~118.42 on strong volume.

Possible head & shoulders top — not confirmed. Watch for a daily close below ~88.05 (neckline) to confirm, with measured-move risk toward ~53.68. A push back above 118.42 weakens the pattern; reclaiming 122.41 invalidates it.
