MDT
Medtronic plc.The S&P 500 ($745.76) is above its 10-day average ($739.38), so the market-trend check passes for every stock today, MDT included. It flips market-wide if the index closes below $739.38.
MDT's 50-day average is $78.38, down from $79.77 10 sessions ago, so the trend check fails. It passes once the 50-day average is rising again.
MDT has dipped to its 21-day average ($79.12) 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.
MDT closed at $79.20, 0.4% below its 9-day average ($79.48), so this momentum check fails. It passes again on a close above $79.48.
MDT 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 high-volume gap-down consistent with an earnings miss has appeared in MDT's last 30 sessions, so this check passes. It would flip if such a gap-down showed up inside that window.
MDT has outpaced the S&P 500 by 9.9 percentage points over the last 20 sessions, so the relative-strength check passes. It flips if MDT starts lagging the index over that window.
A stop at $78.13 is only 1.4% below MDT'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.
The stop sits only 0.6× 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.
Recent volume is 0.55× MDT'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.
