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

### Long-term trend rising — pass

OZK's 50-day average has risen to $50.69, up from $49.86 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

OZK hasn't touched its 21-day average ($51.41) in the last 3 sessions, so the pullback check fails. It passes on a dip back toward $51.41.

### Holding above short-term average — pass

OZK closed at $52.24, 0.9% above its 9-day average ($51.79) — short-term momentum is holding, so this check passes. It flips on a close below $51.79.

### Not overextended — fail

OZK has 2 consecutive up-closes into today — at the limit of 2, so this check fails (the entry looks extended). It passes after a flat or down close resets the streak.

### No recent earnings miss — pass

No high-volume gap-down consistent with an earnings miss has appeared in OZK'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

OZK has trailed the S&P 500 by 5.2 percentage points over the last 20 sessions, so the relative-strength check fails. It passes once OZK leads the index again.

### Stop distance within range — pass

A stop under the recent swing low ($50.74) sits 2.9% below OZK'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 1.8× 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 — pass

Recent volume is 0.84× OZK'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.
