| # | Company · why it is here | Score | T | M | S | V | C | Last 30 | Rank | Price | Since entry | Invalidation | In the list since |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | KOHLS CORP (KSS) Setup 92nd: day-to-day price swings are unusually narrow versus its own recent history — a "Bollinger squeeze" (in the tightest 1% of the past ~6 months), which often precedes a bigger move; volume and participation 80th: it gapped 20.0% above the previous close and has not traded back through the level it left behind — an "unfilled gap", which describes a price range no trade has since crossed and is not a forecast that it will be crossed; weakest is trend 62nd: a "golden cross" — its 50-day average is above its 200-day. |
62 | 67 | 92 | 80 | 63 | 2 | 18.84 19 Aug 2026 | +0.7% | ↓ 18.23 | 18 Aug 2026 | ||
| 2 | MINIMED INC (MMED) Trend 95th: the price is 21% above the average price paid over the period covered, so the typical buyer over that stretch is showing a gain; volume and participation 69th: trading volume is about normal versus its 30-day average; weakest is setup 58th: no Elliott-wave labelling currently fits its swings. |
95 | 60 | 58 | 69 | 63 | 5 | 20.22 19 Aug 2026 | +4.4% | ↓ 14.70 | 18 Aug 2026 | ||
| 3 | AGILYSYS INC (AGYS) Volume and participation 89th: it gapped 29.9% above the previous close and has not traded back through the level it left behind — an "unfilled gap", which describes a price range no trade has since crossed and is not a forecast that it will be crossed; setup 69th: no Elliott-wave labelling currently fits its swings; weakest is trend 62nd: a "golden cross" — its 50-day average is above its 200-day. |

| 6 | Okta, Inc. (OKTA) Volume and participation 83rd: it gapped 13.5% above the previous close and has not traded back through the level it left behind — an "unfilled gap", which describes a price range no trade has since crossed and is not a forecast that it will be crossed; catalysts 76th: open-market insider buys in 90 days 34, analysts have raised their average price target by 1.4% since the prior reading; weakest is trend 53rd: no clear trend either way (ADX below 20). |

Each bar is a percentile: how this company ranked against every company the score ranked, 0–100. The initials are the pillars of the Short-term score: T trend, M momentum, S setup, V volume and participation, C catalysts.
Since entry is the price change from the day the member entered this list to its latest stored close. The sparkline is its last 30 closes with its 50- and 200-day averages, and the invalidation is the level that would disprove its Elliott-wave count — a level a count can fail at, not a forecast.

Questions
How is the short-term score built?
The short-term score is a published weighted sum of percentile ranks, rebalanced every Monday. A list is a published formula and its output, not a recommendation. Method version 2. Each bar is a percentile: how this company ranked against every company the score ranked, 0–100.
How often does this list change?
Members are rebalanced every Monday. Scores are recomputed nightly, but membership only changes at a scheduled rebalance, or immediately if a company stops being eligible. A member is held while it stays inside the top 15, so a small move in rank does not force a change.
What score does a company need to be in this list?
The cutoff today is 69.3 across 1703 ranked covered companies. #11 (NET) is 0.1 below it. A member leaves only if it falls past #15 — 68.3 today.
