⭐ Worth a real look

  • $WEX (-2.1% from high, 3%/day, +28% 3mo) — 4G/1R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; pressed to the high; range contracting
  • $THC (-0.7% from high, 4%/day, +40% 3mo) — 3G/0R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; glued to the high; range contracting
  • $RVTY (-2.8% from high, 3%/day, +25% 3mo) — inside-bar trigger cocked at the box top; 9G/1R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; pressed to the high
  • $BLFS (-0.1% from high, 3%/day, +57% 3mo) — 3G/3R net accumulation under a flat tape; glued to the high

📚 Pattern lesson — learn by example

📈 Cohering Coil — real accumulation — $WEX

Tight box pressed to the high with green caps dominating: institutions buying INTO the pause. Structure (coil) and commitment (caps) AGREE → the roof is being validated. This name: 4G/1R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; pressed to the high; range contracting

🎭 Fake-Coil — distribution in disguise — $MOG.A

Looks identical to a real coil on price — tight, near the high — but the caps under it are RED. Supply leaving while price hovers. Structure says coil, commitment says exit. The trap. This name: 3G/3R — supply leaving while 5% off the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit

⚖️ Decisive vs Thin — why the count matters — $TFX

A lopsided tally (e.g. 7G/0R) is decisive commitment; a 2G/2R or 1G/1R is NO read — not enough committed flow to validate either way. Trust decisive, skip thin. This name: 9G/1R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; 5% off the high
