## Why each check reads this way

### Market trend rising — pass

The S&P 500 ($777.88) is above its 10-day average ($768.16), so the market-trend check passes for every stock today, EZPW included. It flips market-wide if the index closes below $768.16.

### Long-term trend rising — fail

EZPW's 50-day average is $31.49, down from $32.22 10 sessions ago, so the trend check fails. It passes once the 50-day average is rising again.

### Pulled back to support — pass

EZPW has dipped to its 21-day average ($29.79) within the last 3 sessions, so the pullback check passes — the entry sits near support rather than stretched above it. It flips once price goes more than 3 sessions without revisiting that average.

### Holding above short-term average — fail

EZPW closed at $28.65, 0.3% below its 9-day average ($28.73), so this momentum check fails. It passes again on a close above $28.73.

### Not overextended — pass

EZPW 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 — pass

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

### Outperforming the market — fail

EZPW has trailed the S&P 500 by 15.5 percentage points over the last 20 sessions, so the relative-strength check fails. It passes once EZPW leads the index again.

### Stop distance within range — pass

A stop under the recent swing low ($26.63) sits 7.1% below EZPW'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 — pass

The stop sits 1.4× the average daily range (ATR) from price, clearing the 1-ATR minimum, so this check passes — the stop isn't buried inside normal noise. It flips if that room tightens inside 1× ATR.

### Quiet pullback volume — fail

Recent volume is 1.12× EZPW's 20-day average — above the 0.8× threshold, so this check fails (the move is drawing heavy volume). It passes once volume cools below 0.8×.
