🚦 Gate — CONFIRMED UPTREND

Full hunt — wind at the back. ⭐ longs lead; the gate is open. ⚖️ Breadth divergence: POSITIVE — selling exhausting under a lower-low price; turn may be near. Watch the ⭐ coils.

⭐ Worth a real look

  • $TALO (-5.1% from high, 3%/day, +17% 3mo) — 7G/4R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; 5% off the high
  • $MEDP (-2.4% from high, 3%/day, +17% 3mo) — inside-bar trigger cocked at the box top; 3G/2R net accumulation under a flat tape; pressed to the high; range contracting
  • $ETSY (-3.1% from high, 4%/day, +12% 3mo) — inside-bar trigger cocked at the box top; 4G/2R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; pressed to the high
  • $SIG (-3.0% from high, 3%/day, +28% 3mo) — 3G/0R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; pressed to the high; range contracting
  • $HOG (-2.5% from high, 3%/day, +24% 3mo) — 4G/1R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; pressed to the high
  • $LLY (-2.5% from high, 3%/day, +20% 3mo) — 4G/0R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; pressed to the high

⚠️ Clearest fakes — decisive distribution at the highs

  • $CAKE (-4.6% from high) — 2G/4R — supply leaving while pressed to the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit
  • $OKTA (-5.6% from high) — 1G/4R — supply leaving while 6% off the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit
  • $RAL (-6.5% from high) — 4G/4R — supply leaving while 6% off the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit
  • $COKE (-4.7% from high) — 2G/5R — supply leaving while pressed to the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit

📈 Cohering Coil — real accumulation — $TALO

Tight box pressed to the high with green caps dominating: institutions buying INTO the pause. Structure (coil) and commitment (caps) AGREE → the roof is being validated. This name: 7G/4R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; 5% off the high

🎭 Fake-Coil — distribution in disguise — $CAKE

Looks identical to a real coil on price — tight, near the high — but the caps under it are RED. Supply leaving while price hovers. Structure says coil, commitment says exit. The trap. This name: 2G/4R — supply leaving while pressed to the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit

🚫 Extended — what we do NOT chase — $ITGR

Already ran far from the 40-MA (high ATR-extension): the obvious move everyone sees, edge gone, prone to the pullback. We surface the pre-obvious coil, not this. This name: +162.1 ATR above the 200d — -0.2% off high but already extended
