## 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, FLY included. It flips market-wide if the index closes below $768.16.

### Long-term trend rising — fail

FLY's 50-day average is $26.40, down from $31.08 10 sessions ago, so the trend check fails. It passes once the 50-day average is rising again.

### Pulled back to support — fail

FLY hasn't touched its 21-day average ($23.99) in the last 3 sessions, so the pullback check fails. It passes on a dip back toward $23.99.

### Holding above short-term average — pass

FLY closed at $26.77, 7.2% above its 9-day average ($24.98) — short-term momentum is holding, so this check passes. It flips on a close below $24.98.

### Not overextended — pass

FLY 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 FLY'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

FLY has outpaced the S&P 500 by 37.1 percentage points over the last 20 sessions, so the relative-strength check passes. It flips if FLY starts lagging the index over that window.

### Stop distance within range — fail

A stop at $24.24 is 9.5% below FLY's price — wider than the 8% ceiling, so the risk check fails (too much risk per share). It passes once that distance is back inside 2–8%.

### Adequate stop room — pass

The stop sits 1.2× 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 1.08× FLY'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×.
