Stocks setting up before a breakout: tight bases just under a resistance tested again and again. The radar scans about 3,500 US stocks every trading day and draws the lines the way a trader would.
Every setup shown on this page, with the day it was shown and what the stock did next: a close above the pivot is a breakout; a close under the base's support line, or 8% under the price it was shown at, is a failure. Nothing is removed.
“Near breakout” setups pass every check; watchlist ones miss one or two.
These are measured chart patterns, not recommendations. Many setups never break out, and some that do fail afterwards. Do your own research and manage your risk.
