## Why each check reads this way

### Market trend rising — pass

The S&P 500 ($776.34) is above its 10-day average ($771.09), so the market-trend check passes for every stock today, DCI included. It flips market-wide if the index closes below $771.09.

### Long-term trend rising — pass

DCI's 50-day average has risen to $90.28, up from $87.53 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

DCI hasn't touched its 21-day average ($94.61) in the last 3 sessions, so the pullback check fails. It passes on a dip back toward $94.61.

### Holding above short-term average — fail

DCI closed at $95.95, 0.2% below its 9-day average ($96.19), so this momentum check fails. It passes again on a close above $96.19.

### Not overextended — pass

DCI has 0 consecutive up-closes 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 — pass

No high-volume gap-down consistent with an earnings miss has appeared in DCI's last 30 sessions, so this check passes. It would flip if such a gap-down showed up inside that window.

### Outperforming the market — pass

DCI has outpaced the S&P 500 by 1.7 percentage points over the last 20 sessions, so the relative-strength check passes. It flips if DCI starts lagging the index over that window.

### Stop distance within range — fail

A stop at $94.80 is only 1.2% below DCI's price — tighter than the 2% floor, so the risk check fails (too little room to work). It passes once the stop sits 2–8% below price.

### Adequate stop room — fail

The stop sits only 0.5× 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 0.63× DCI's 20-day average — below the 1.0× threshold, so the pullback looks quiet and this check passes. It flips if volume pushes past 1.0× that average.
