TickerNameCloseActionAction Price Where to act — a buy-limit on a pullback or a buy-stop above resistance, not the current price. Sanity-check vs Close: on a held name, an action price stranded above the close means the queued level was set when the stock was higher — stale, awaiting reprice. Stop The risk-defined exit, set below the entry for a long (~1.2–1.8×ATR). A held long whose Stop sits at/above the Close is already below its stop — a stale box awaiting reprice. 1wk Model estimate of the likely price at this horizon — a forward projection, not a guarantee, and separate from the trade's Action Price or Stop. Where the ML estimator is enabled these are per-ticker calibrated forecasts (~80% coverage band) that are refreshed periodically and can drift between refreshes; otherwise they're interpolated from the signal's swing target. Confirm against the settled close. 4wk Model estimate of the likely price at this horizon — a forward projection, not a guarantee, and separate from the trade's Action Price or Stop.

AMDAdvanced Micro Devices, Inc649.42BUY — QUEUED @650.71650.71580.60692.77 (+6.5%)790.92 (+21.5%)925.42 (+42.2%)AMD printed a second consecutive bullish signal (BUY 64 -> BUY 65, now MomentumContinuation_Up) and closed at 649.42 (+2.80%), near a record, after Citi raised its target to on agentic-AI CPU demand. It is the only quality-passing name on the board to clear the 65 floor, so the book buys it on strength with a buy-stop at the model entry. S4 re-arm clause from 10-05 fired (2nd bullish print, raw >= 65). val_adj suppressed to 0 (P3, broken DCF anchor 171.74); size x0.5 (MoS -13.44 <= -). Sizing: 35.06% x x 20% x 0.5 = ->. Vehicle: GTC buy-stop at Entry_Price (S/R4; the family is not a pullback). R:R 2.0:1 (V4 ok); stop 580.60 = 3.0 ATR, defined risk, in line with NVDA (S). 12wk 925.42 above entry (S7). No AMD print inside the window (S5); TSMC Sept revenue 10-09 and TSMC Q 10-15 are read-throughs. Cancel clause: withdraw if conviction < 65 or the label leaves the bullish family at the next EOD, or on expiry 10-09. Reprice if the open gaps >1.5%. · news
NVDANVIDIA Corporation239.24HOLD239.24224.76249.47 (+4.3%)273.33 (+14.2%)273.36 (+14.3%)NVIDIA held near its record (239.24, +0.14%) and the model firmed to HOLD 73 (AnticipationUp_VCP), so the-share core is held. It is not a buy-add: the label is HOLD, and a re-add needs a fresh BUY/BUY - ADD print with adj >= 65 (raw >= 75 after -10, P usable anchor). Not armed (Gain_ATR 2.28, T12 87.52). The stop stays 224.76 (2.66 ATR; the engine's 224.30 is lower). W1: settled close < 224.76 -> sell 30%; < EMA200 204.76 -> full exit. f=0.30; the 12wk exceeds the DCF anchor 175.43. · news
TSMTaiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing C482.30NO ACTION482.30464.78488.29 (+1.2%)502.26 (+4.1%)578.16 (+19.9%)TSMC eased 0.72% to 482.30 and the model moved from AVOID 59 back to HOLD 55, so the 10-05 sell-family print did not repeat and the W1 '2nd consecutive sell print' trigger lapses (W5). Genuinely PROFIT_ARMED (Gain_ATR 4.44, +10.11%) but not fired: (a) no other code; (b) is a 4-pt dip; (c) 12wk 578.16 > 491.95; (d) no NO TRADE. The chandelier would be 467.50 (487.46 - 2 x 9.98), but TSMC reports Q on 10-15 (7 sessions), so P2/USC-EOQ-CH holds the stop at 464.78 (1.76 ATR) through the print (assumption: P2 outranks the mechanical trail-raise, as on ASML). A settled close < 464.78 -> full exit (T5 stub). Ledgered optional so the grader prices holding. · news

That is a 12-point drop, below the 20-point tick. PROFIT_ARMED is the U4 phantom (Gain_ATR 0.16, T12 ratio). The stop is held loose at 1,751.05 (1.84 ATR) into the binary event (P2/USC-EOQ-CH). W1: any SELL/STRONG SELL - REDUCE print or a settled close < 1,751.05 -> full exit (, T5 stub).
—Tesla Inc—NO ACTION——n/an/an/aTesla firmed to BUY 84 (Buy_Rank 1, two consecutive bullish prints), adj 67, but it fails the hard quality gate (F-Score/FCF screen), which blocks new entries. It is also a FailedBreakdown chase, a family that is/ stop-first here (USC-3, cell -7). No re-arm while Quality_Pass is False (Q5).
—ASE Technology Holding—NO ACTION——n/an/an/aASE faded STRONG BUY 81 -> BUY 64 (-1.58%), adj 54, fails the quality gate, and the limit is 2.71 ATR below the close. No re-arm while Quality_Pass is False.
—Intel Corporation—NO ACTION——n/an/an/aIntel faded BUY (-3.18%), adj 49, and still fails the quality gate. No re-arm while Quality_Pass is False.
—Lumentum Holdings—NO ACTION——n/an/an/aLumentum printed BUY - ANTICIPATE 70, now of the last prints, so the anticipate slot's count and conviction floor are met, but the hard quality gate fails (W) and the stop is 3.0 ATR / -16.7% wide (S). No re-arm while Quality_Pass is False.

0.493 1-week calibration How much of the eventual 4-week move typically shows up in the first week (0 = almost none, 1 = most of it). Use it to read the 1-week estimates: a low number means prices drift toward the target slowly, so don't over-read a soft week-1.
