What this page is
Fresh clears and early momentum structures from the nightly breakout scan — not mid-trend Continuation pauses (those live on Momentum Continuation). Three pattern tags: High Tight Flag, Active Breakout, and Fresh Turnaround Breakout.
-
High Tight Flag (HTF)
Pole-and-flag geometry: a rapid advance (pole) followed by a tight, low-volume flag. The card shows pole/flag stats the model measured.
-
Active Breakout
First clear move out of a multi-week base on strong volume (typically 1.5×+ vs recent averages). Classic Stage 2 launch structure in the scan.
-
Fresh Turnaround Breakout
Early reversal clear after a downtrend or base repair — turnaround momentum with volume checked against the 50-day average.
-
Filter by pattern
Use pattern pills to isolate HTF, Active BO, or Fresh Turnaround. Each bucket describes different structure.
-
Volume & score
Every tagged row carries volume-quality scoring. Check Vol Q, Vol ×50d, total score, and Fail risk on each card.
-
vs Base Formation
Base Formation lists names still below the pivot in base shape. Buildup rows already triggered breakout-style rules.

Research workflow
Filter → open card → stock page for full metrics and chart levels. Use Position Sizing separately if you work out size.
Detailed reference
Buildup vs continuation
Buildup = earlier-stage clears (HTF, Active BO, Fresh Turnaround). Continuation = mid-trend pause. Both from one daily breakout pass.
Vol ×50d
Signal-day volume divided by the 50-day average. Higher = heavier participation on the day the model flagged the move.
Fields on each card
- Total score (0–100) — weighted mix of base quality, RS, volume participation, and failure-risk flags.
- Signal — short label from the score band (Very Strong down to Weak). Describes the row, not an action.
- RS rank — percentile vs other names in the same nightly scan (higher = stronger relative performance).
- Vol Q — volume quality tag (dry-up in a base, surge on a break, low participation on a clear, etc.).
- From pivot — distance (%) from the scan’s pivot level; extension context only.
- Fail risk — flag when structure looks extended, late, or prone to false breaks in the model.
- Vol ×50d — how the signal-day volume compared to the 50-day average on breakout-style scans.
Filter pills
Pills like All, Strongest, F&O, Vol Confirmed, and Leading RS only hide rows on your screen. They do not re-run the scan or change saved data.
