FailedBreakdown_Up_20D
Recent breakdown failed — price closed back above breakdown level NOTE (audit 2026-07-07): requires_signal_history is not implemented and the setup∩trigger donchian intersection is Mid_Range-only — the signal detects bullish drift near lows, not a verified failed breakdown; semantic rework tracked as a Tranche-B issue.
Setup — what must already be true
- Donchian channel position is one of Near Low / Mid Range
- EMA stack (5/10/20/50 alignment) is one of Bullish Full / Bullish Partial / Mixed
- Liquidity gate is Pass
Trigger — what fires the signal
- Donchian channel position is one of Mid Range / Near High
- Volume vs 20-day average < 1
- Momentum trajectory (RSI + MACD direction) is one of Both Improving / Mixed
Trade box & conviction bar
- Entry: market
- Stop: swing low (0.5 ATR)
- Target: fixed atr (2 ATR)
- Time stop: 5 bars
- Conviction: BUY-grade at ≥ 65, STRONG at ≥ 85 — a counter-trend family, so the bar is deliberately higher than the default 55/75
- Requires signal history — it watches how a prior signal on the same name resolved.
