Methodology
Composite Verdict: Each ticker is scored against ~10 swing-trading checks. Weighted score → STRONG_BUY (≥75), BUY (≥55), HOLD (35–55), SELL (15–35), AVOID (<15).
Indicators: RSI(14), MACD(12,26,9), SMA(20/50/200), EMA(9/21), ATR(14), Volume vs 20-day avg, 52-week high distance, support/resistance from recent pivots.
Entry/Stop/Target: Entry near current price or pullback to 9-EMA. Stop = entry − (ATR × 1.5). Target uses your selected R-multiple (1.5R / 2R / 3R).
Position Size: (Account × Risk%) ÷ (Entry − Stop) = shares. Never violates the 1% rule unless you raise it.
