## Why each check reads this way

### Market trend rising — fail

The S&P 500 ($766.08) is below its 10-day average ($768.72), so the market-trend check fails for every stock today, RJF included. It clears market-wide when the index reclaims $768.72.

### Long-term trend rising — pass

RJF's 50-day average has risen to $169.21, up from $163.76 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 — pass

RJF has dipped to its 21-day average ($175.91) 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 — pass

RJF closed at $176.69, 0.0% above its 9-day average ($176.63) — short-term momentum is holding, so this check passes. It flips on a close below $176.63.

### Not overextended — pass

RJF 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 RJF'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

RJF has trailed the S&P 500 by 3.6 percentage points over the last 20 sessions, so the relative-strength check fails. It passes once RJF leads the index again.

### Stop distance within range — pass

A stop under the recent swing low ($168.92) sits 4.4% below RJF'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 2.0× 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 1.56× RJF's 20-day average — above the 1.0× threshold, so this check fails (the move is drawing heavy volume). It passes once volume cools below 1.0×.
