The lines are drawn where this stock has actually turned: 7 touches on the ceiling, 4 on the floor, each fitted to the slope that catches the most of them. Buying one average daily range below its 50-day mean, while it is still above its 200-day mean, and taking 6% has come up 783 times, 64% of them reaching the target, typically in 24 days, with price going about 7% against the entry at worst (35% in the worst case). This stock has not traded long enough to choose a plan of its own, so the levels come from the market-wide rule — derived on eight unrelated tickers and then confirmed on 87 others it was never fitted to, where it reached target 64% of the time. Treat it as the general setup applied here, not as this stock’s own record. On this stock the setup has come up 3 times so far, reaching target 33% of the time — too few to mean much on its own.
On this stock's own history these rules produced 5 settled calls, of which 3 reached target (60%), with an average best move of 7.6%. See the full record.
