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 57.1 across 66 ranked Communication Services companies. #11 (TTWO) is 0.1 below it. A member leaves only if it falls past #15 — 56.6 today.
