Overview
The 20-Week Breakout scan for 2026-08-29 identified 126 total signals, split between 46 bullish (dollar_20_wk + pct_20_wk) and 80 bearish (dollar_d20_wk + pct_d20_wk) moves. This 37%/63% bullish-to-bearish split places the tape in mostly bearish territory, signaling active institutional distribution beneath a market breadth reading of just 51.0% of stocks above their SMA-40 and a Very Bearish/Neutral sentiment gauge.
The SA Regime is classified as Cautious, and leadership is concentrated in Communication Services, Health Care, and Energy (highest ATR%), while Real Estate, Industrials, and Utilities show negative ATR%, confirming defensive rotation out of rate-sensitive groups. Most bullish breakouts today originate in thinly-traded ETNs and micro-cap names with minimal institutional sponsorship, a pattern typically seen in choppy, low-conviction markets.
Quality Score: 2.5/5. The elevated bearish count, low breadth, and sparse institutional participation in most bullish movers argue for selectivity. Only names with real fund accumulation (FWDI, SUJA) and outsized relative volume clear the bar for higher-conviction setups in this Cautious regime.
Top 5 Bullish Picks
FWDI ($5.89) — Finance / Crypto-Blockchain
Weekly Momentum: FWDI posted a pct_20_wk breakout with rel volume of 2.9x average, ATR multiple of 4.16, and tight LOD risk (4.3%), indicating controlled, high-conviction accumulation rather than a volatile spike. Institutional backing is the standout feature here.
| Level | Price |
|---|---|
| Stop (1.5x ATR) | $5.20 |
| Entry | $5.89 |
| Target 1 (2x ATR) | $6.81 |
| Target 2 (3x ATR) | $7.27 |
Institutional Interest: 60 funds holding, +140.0% funds increase, 20.5% funds ownership — the strongest institutional signal in today’s bullish scan.
SUJA ($9.37) — Food/Beverage / Non-Alcoholic
Weekly Momentum: SUJA broke out on 2.1x relative volume with 1.15M shares traded vs. 553K average, a modest ATR multiple of 0.35 suggesting an early-stage move backed by broad institutional ownership.
| Level | Price |
|---|---|
| Stop (1.5x ATR) | $8.10 |
| Entry | $9.37 |
| Target 1 (2x ATR) | $11.07 |
| Target 2 (3x ATR) | $11.92 |
Institutional Interest: 43 funds, 57.1% funds ownership — the deepest institutional base among today’s bullish names.
CRMG ($9.99) — ETF/ETN/CEF Finance
Weekly Momentum: CRMG surged with an extreme ATR multiple of 12.67 on 1.8x relative volume (7.98M shares vs. 4.46M average), reflecting a sharp acceleration off its 31.0% 52-week high discount.
| Level | Price |
|---|---|
| Stop (1.5x ATR) | $8.97 |
| Entry | $9.99 |
| Target 1 (2x ATR) | $11.35 |
| Target 2 (3x ATR) | $12.03 |
Institutional Interest: 2 funds, 0.6% funds ownership — light sponsorship; momentum-driven rather than institution-led.
CRWL ($75.00) — ETF/ETN/CEF Finance
Weekly Momentum: CRWL is the standout percentage mover, up 391.8% versus its 52-week low, with 2.4x relative volume and a 9.8% ADR%. The 1.43 ATR multiple suggests room before overextension, though LOD risk of 74.0% signals intraday volatility.
| Level | Price |
|---|---|
| Stop (1.5x ATR) | $63.42 |
| Entry | $75.00 |
| Target 1 (2x ATR) | $90.44 |
| Target 2 (3x ATR) | $98.16 |
Institutional Interest: 0 funds reported — purely a technical/momentum trade with no institutional footprint yet.
NOWL ($8.52) — ETF/ETN/CEF Finance
Weekly Momentum: NOWL saw heavy institutional-style volume flow (10.36M shares vs. 18.6M average) with an ATR multiple of 7.47, though LOD risk of 118.5% flags significant intraday swings — treat as a high-volatility trade.
| Level | Price |
|---|---|
| Stop (1.5x ATR) | $7.55 |
| Entry | $8.52 |
| Target 1 (2x ATR) | $9.82 |
| Target 2 (3x ATR) | $10.47 |
Institutional Interest: 0 funds reported — speculative, volume-driven setup.
Bearish Alerts
Bearish signals dominate ETF/ETN Finance products (IONL, IRE, IREG, QPUX) with ATR multiples ranging from -1.48 to -1.63 and 52-week high discounts of 85.7%–94.6%, reflecting sustained selling pressure in leveraged/inverse products. FISN (Energy-Alternative) shows the deepest breakdown at -2.52 ATR multiple, down 65.5% from its 52-week high, warranting caution on speculative alternative energy names.
Weakness is concentrated in low-institutional-ownership ETNs (0-2 funds each), consistent with retail-driven volatility rather than fundamental deterioration.
Sector Theme
Leadership remains in Communication Services, Health Care, and Energy per ATR%, while Real Estate, Industrials, and Utilities lag with negative ATR%. Bullish breakout activity today, however, skews heavily toward ETF/ETN Finance products and micro-caps rather than the sectors leading on breadth, suggesting the broader market rally is narrow and speculative rather than broad-based.
Institutional Summary
FWDI leads institutional accumulation with 60 funds and a 140.0% increase in fund ownership, followed by SUJA at 43 funds (57.1% ownership). CRMG shows minor institutional presence (2 funds), while CRWL, ASTN, AAOZ, IREZ, CCUP, VMAR, and NOWL show zero reported institutional funds — reinforcing that today’s strongest, most durable setups are FWDI and SUJA, while other bullish movers remain speculative, technically-driven trades in this Cautious regime.
