Factor checklist — research, not advice

A check leans with a bullish reading. A cross leans against it. A dash is unavailable or mixed.

  • Insider Pulls against a bullish reading. Sale value outweighs purchases
  • Congress Unavailable or mixed. No purchase disclosures in the stored window
  • Narrative Supports a bullish reading. Stored narrative reading is in the bullish band
  • Timing Pulls against a bullish reading. Close is more than 0.5 ATR under stored support
  • Financial indicators Supports a bullish reading. Current ratio 2.62 · operating margin 20%

Suggested stop 29.54, nearest stored support minus 0.5 ATR(7.5% under the last close). Reward/risk to the next stored resistance is 0.77. Wait — that reward/risk is under 2. Research, not advice. Not an order.
