Invest with Data-Driven Logic.

Use both for best results. Fundamental analysis determines what to buy (company value, growth, financials). Technical analysis determines when to buy/sell (entry/exit timing). Timeframe matters: Long-term investors (1+ years) rely more on fundamentals; Short-term traders (days/weeks) rely more on technicals; Swing traders (weeks/months) use both equally. Recommended approach: Use fundamentals to find quality companies, then use technicals to time entry at support levels or breakouts. Match approach to your trading style, timeframe, and strengths.

🟢 Trend Indicators: Moving Averages (20/50/200-day) show direction. Price above MA = uptrend, below = downtrend.
🔴 Momentum Indicators: RSI (>70 overbought, <30 oversold) and MACD (crossovers signal trend changes).
⚠️ Volatility Indicators: Bollinger Bands show price extremes—bands widen = high volatility, narrow = low.
📊 Volume: Confirms price moves—high volume breakouts are reliable, low volume = weak signals.
🎯 Support/Resistance: Key price levels where reversals happen. ADX shows trend strength (>25 = strong).

A stop loss automatically sells your stock if it drops to a certain price, protecting you from big losses.

⚠️ Gap-Down Risk: If a stock gaps down below your stop-loss price, a market order can fill at a much lower price. By using an alert instead, you can evaluate the opening gap and decide to sell, or wait to see if it fills the gap — avoiding being filled automatically at the worst possible price.

We offer three strategies:

1) Conservative (Recommended) — Sets your stop at 2x ATR below entry and never moves it. A "set and forget" floor. If the stock never hits it, you stay in one long hold. Best for most investors.
2) Adaptive Hybrid — Starts with the same 2x ATR stop, but graduates to a trailing Chandelier stop once profits reach a threshold (2R in trending markets, 1R in choppy). Actively locks in gains as price rises, but sells more often on pullbacks.
3) Chandelier — Trails 3x ATR below recent highs. Good for riding winners longer.

Conservative vs Hybrid example: If a stock pulls back after a rally, the Hybrid's trailing stop is closer to price and gets triggered — it sells, then re-enters on a new buy signal at a new price. Conservative's wide fixed stop survives the same pullback and stays in the original hold — it only exits on major breakdowns like a death cross or directional trend reversal, not normal pullbacks. Same pullback, different outcome.

Hybrid Pros:
• Locks in gains with trailing stop
• Adapts to market conditions via ADX
• Can re-enter on strong confluence signals after selling
• Better risk control on volatile stocks

Hybrid Cons:
• More whipsaws on normal pullbacks
• Higher trade count with potential re-entry at worse prices
• Can underperform in strong uninterrupted trends where Conservative simply holds through

🔴 Avoid: Round numbers like $50 or $100 (many stops cluster there). Stops that are too tight (normal price swings trigger them). Moving your stop lower — only move it up to lock in gains.
🟢 Golden Rule: Never risk more than 2% of your total portfolio on one trade.

Breakout Status Types:
🚀 Valid Breakout - Price broke above 20-day high with strong volume (>1.5x median). Strongest buy signal with institutional confirmation.
⚠️ Breakout (Low Vol) - Price broke above 20-day high but weak volume (<1.5x). Potentially false breakout - wait for volume or avoid.
📈 Near Breakout - Price within 2% of 20-day high. Watch for volume spike on the break.
➖ No Breakout - Price >2% below 20-day high.
