## Why each check reads this way

### Market trend rising — fail

The S&P 500 ($766.08) is below its 10-day average ($768.72), so the market-trend check fails for every stock today, BYND included. It clears market-wide when the index reclaims $768.72.

### Long-term trend rising — pass

BYND's 50-day average has risen to $5.38, up from $2.80 10 sessions ago, so the long-term trend check passes. It would flip if that average stopped rising over its 10-session window.

### Pulled back to support — fail

BYND hasn't touched its 21-day average ($10.53) in the last 3 sessions, so the pullback check fails. It passes on a dip back toward $10.53.

### Holding above short-term average — pass

BYND closed at $14.25, 7.7% above its 9-day average ($13.24) — short-term momentum is holding, so this check passes. It flips on a close below $13.24.

### Not overextended — pass

BYND has 1 consecutive up-close into today — under the limit of 2, so it isn't overextended and this check passes. It flips after a second straight green close.

### No recent earnings miss — fail

A high-volume gap-down consistent with an earnings miss appeared in BYND's last 30 sessions, so this check fails. It clears once that event ages out of the 30-session window.

### Outperforming the market — pass

BYND has outpaced the S&P 500 by 2583.7 percentage points over the last 20 sessions, so the relative-strength check passes. It flips if BYND starts lagging the index over that window.

### Stop distance within range — pass

A stop under the recent swing low ($13.55) sits 4.9% below BYND's price — inside the 2–8% band, so the risk check passes. It flips if that distance drops under 2% or widens past 8%.

### Adequate stop room — fail

The stop sits only 0.2× the average daily range (ATR) from price — inside the 1-ATR minimum, so this check fails (normal noise could hit it). It passes once there's at least 1× ATR of room.

### Quiet pullback volume — pass

Recent volume is 0.04× BYND's 20-day average — below the 0.8× threshold, so the pullback looks quiet and this check passes. It flips if volume pushes past 0.8× that average.
