🌐 REGIME — CORRECTION / DISTRIBUTION

beach-mode — most coils fail here; sit on hands or G/0R only today 50↑ / 38↓ (4%+ day-movers) · 5-bar balance +162 · T2108 49% above 40-d MA

⏫ What moved since last run (2026-10-20)

  • ⬆️ GRADUATED coil→setup: $TALO, $SM
  • 🆕 NEW setup: $PRGS
  • 🌀 new coil: $GKOS, $UTHR, $SBH, $RELY, $PLTR, $CRSR, $COKE
  • ➖ dropped out: $MUR, $CRL, $ASO, $CNK

🚦 Gate — CORRECTION / DISTRIBUTION

Beach-mode — longs HEAVILY suppressed: only the most decisive G/0R survive, and even those swim against the tide. Most coils FAIL here. Learn/watch tape, not a buy tape. regime gate suppressed 5 cohering coil(s) that weren’t decisive enough for this tape.

⚠️ Clearest fakes — decisive distribution at the highs (lead this regime)

  • $SBH (-7.4% from high) — 4G/6R — supply leaving while 7% off the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit
  • $PARR (-6.7% from high) — 4G/5R — supply leaving while 7% off the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit
  • $QLYS (-4.6% from high) — 3G/4R — supply leaving while pressed to the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit

⭐ Worth a real look (secondary — fakes lead this regime)

  • $TREX (-5.6% from high, 3%/day, +15% 3mo) — 5G/0R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; 6% off the high
  • $RVTY (-5.8% from high, 4%/day, +38% 3mo) — 5G/3R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; 6% off the high; range contracting
  • $CHEF (-7.1% from high, 3%/day, +17% 3mo) — 4G/2R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; 7% off the high

📈 Cohering Coil — real accumulation — $TREX

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: 5G/0R decisive accumulation under a flat tape; 6% off the high

🎭 Fake-Coil — distribution in disguise — $QLYS

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/4R — supply leaving while pressed to the high; structure says coil, commitment says exit

🎯 Inside-Bar Setup — the cocked trigger — $TALO

An inside bar pressed to the box top = a defined buy-stop trigger with the stop right below. You’re early AND you have an exact level — the highest-value pre-obvious state. This name: inside-bar trigger cocked at the box top; 6G/4R net accumulation under a flat tape; pressed to the high

aG/bR = green vs red caps in the box (commitment). COHERING = structure + commitment agree · DIVERGING = distribution under a coil near highs.
