VLY

The S&P 500 ($777.88) is above its 10-day average ($768.16), so the market-trend check passes for every stock today, VLY included. It flips market-wide if the index closes below $768.16.

1.2% market move from failing

VLY's 50-day average has risen to $14.47, up from $14.22 10 sessions ago, so the long-term trend check passes. It would flip if that average stopped rising over its 10-session window.

No high-volume gap-down consistent with an earnings miss has appeared in VLY's last 30 sessions, so this check passes. It would flip if such a gap-down showed up inside that window.

A stop under the recent swing low ($14.34) sits 4.5% below VLY's price — inside the 2–8% band, so the risk check passes. It flips if that distance drops under 2% or widens past 8%.

2.5% from failing

The stop sits 2.6× 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.

1.6× a daily range from failing

Recent volume is 0.90× VLY'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.
