The lines are drawn where this stock has actually turned: 8 touches on the ceiling, 10 on the floor, each fitted to the slope that catches the most of them. Buying one average daily range below its 50-day mean, on heavier volume than usual and while it is still above its 200-day mean, and taking 6% has come up 791 times, 73% of them reaching the target, typically in 34 days, with price going about 5% against the entry along the way (63% in the worst case we have on record). Trades that have not reached the target within 3 months are counted as misses, whatever they are worth at the time. The prices above are this stock’s own — its average, its volatility — but the setup is the same one we apply everywhere: derived on eight unrelated tickers, then confirmed on 87 others it was never fitted to. We deliberately do not tune it to each stock: doing so scores worse on history the tuning never saw — 58% against 71% — because it fits the past rather than the future. 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 11 settled calls, of which 7 reached target (63.6%), with an average best move of 5.2%. See the full record.

Trend lines are fitted statistically to past swing highs and lows and projected forward on the assumption the same rhythm continues. It often does not. This is information, not advice.
