Scoring Engine
Begin scoring — start with the dimensions you're most certain about.
Market Alignment
Is the broad market in your favor — uptrend, healthy breadth, no distribution?
Indices below 50DMA, breadth deteriorating, distribution days stacking.
Indices in confirmed uptrend, breadth expanding, leading stocks acting well.
Sector Strength
Is the sector leading or showing relative strength vs. the index?
Sector lagging, no leadership, capital rotating away.
Sector leading the tape — top quartile RS, multiple movers from the same group.
Relative Strength
Is the stock outperforming peers and the index over the last 3–6 months?
Stock lagging or trending sideways while market advances.
Persistent outperformance, RS line at new highs, leadership profile.
Volume Quality
Confirmation volume on the move — accumulation, not noise.
Light or erratic volume, no clear footprint of institutional buying.
Volume expanding on up days, drying up on pullbacks — clean accumulation.
Pattern Quality
Clean structure, tight base, well-defined setup.
Wide & loose, choppy base, no clear structure.
Tight, orderly, recognizable setup with clear pivot and constructive prior trend.
Entry Clarity
Precise trigger — pivot, breakout level, defined zone.
Entry is a guess. No defined level. You're chasing.
Exact trigger price defined ahead of time. Plan, then execute.
Stop Clarity
Clear invalidation level — structural, not arbitrary.
No defined stop, or stop is wishful (random %, gut feeling).
Stop sits below recent structure or pivot low — a real invalidation point.
Reward-to-Risk
Logical target offers ≥ 2R asymmetric payoff.
Target unclear or under 1.5R. You're risking a dollar to make pennies.
Clear logical target ≥ 2.5R. Asymmetry is in your favor.
Catalyst / Reason
Earnings, news, technical thrust — why now, not next week?
No clear reason. The chart is just sitting there.
Real catalyst — earnings, sector tailwind, technical breakout — driving urgency.
Personal Readiness
Not chasing, not revenge trading, plan is written.
Tired, tilted, FOMO-driven, or no written plan.
Calm, focused, plan written, position size pre-decided.
Verdict
Insufficient inputs. Score more dimensions for a real grade.
