Overview
Today’s 20-week breakout scan captured 179 total signals, with bearish momentum dominating at 103 signals versus 76 bullish signals. This 58% bearish skew reflects ongoing market uncertainty, though the quality of bullish signals shows interesting institutional positioning in select names.
