## 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, TSLA included. It clears market-wide when the index reclaims $768.72.

### Long-term trend rising — fail

TSLA's 50-day average is $362.42, down from $374.39 10 sessions ago, so the trend check fails. It passes once the 50-day average is rising again.

### Pulled back to support — pass

TSLA has dipped to its 21-day average ($343.93) 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

TSLA closed at $345.82, 0.0% below its 9-day average ($345.94), so this momentum check fails. It passes again on a close above $345.94.

### Not overextended — pass

TSLA 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 — fail

A high-volume gap-down consistent with an earnings miss appeared in TSLA's last 30 sessions, so this check fails. It clears once that event ages out of the 30-session window.

### Outperforming the market — pass

TSLA has outpaced the S&P 500 by 10.9 percentage points over the last 20 sessions, so the relative-strength check passes. It flips if TSLA starts lagging the index over that window.

### Stop distance within range — fail

A stop at $338.95 is only 2.0% below TSLA'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.

### Adequate stop room — fail

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.

### Quiet pullback volume — fail

Recent volume is 0.84× TSLA'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×.
