Stand aside — hard gate breached

  • Insiders are net sellers — net purchase ratio -1.00 over the last 180 days (2 selling vs 0 buying). There is no offsetting insider purchase — this is one-way selling.

Pillar detail, thesis support and invalidation
Regime clarity
  • price above 200DMA
  • 200DMA flat/falling
  • 50DMA rising
  • partial HH/HL structure
  • efficiency ratio 0.28
Sponsorship / positioning
  • OBV 50d slope +0.328 avg-daily-volumes/bar
  • no OBV divergence at highs
  • OBV flat-to-rising through last pullback
Volatility behaviour
  • last pullback 4.6% deep
  • no wide downside expansion bars (30d)
  • ATR contracting vs 20d mean
Catalyst alignment (insider)
  • single insider — no cluster
  • net purchase ratio -1.00 (0 buying vs 2 selling)
  • insiders are NET SELLERS over the window
  • NO CFO purchase in the window — the CFO-specific terms score zero
  • no CFO buy to date — recency not scored
Cross-asset confirmation
  • closest sector ETF: XLK
  • XLK above rising 200DMA (sector-led)
  • XLK vs SPY 6m: +18.8 pts
  • stock vs XLK RS (3m/6m avg): +8.7 pts
What strengthens the thesis
  • A confirmed higher high above 449.58 on expanding OBV.
  • Pullbacks that hold the rising 50DMA with flat-to-rising OBV.
  • XLK extending its own trend while the stock holds relative strength.
  • Continued base-building above the reclaimed 200DMA without volatility expansion.
What invalidates the thesis
  • Loss of the rising 50DMA (366.52) with expanding volatility — reduce.
  • Breakdown below the prior structural base (387.82) — exit, no averaging down.
  • OBV divergence during a price acceleration — reduce.
  • Sector ETF losing its own 200DMA — remove capital regardless of stock behaviour.
