Our own calculation from the exchange’s daily candles, as of Oct 27, 2026. “All-time” applies since the start of this series, not to the whole market. Changes in percent; the TradingView chart shows prices. “Today” = change of the last trading day versus the previous day. Not investment advice.
Still above the buy zone
After a rise there is a buy zone; the price is still above it. “Near the buy zone” (from Watcher) shows how close it is.

Rule (4-hour candles) Zone valid since Oct 23, 2026 · last changed on Oct 27, 2026 Zone historyThe zone history shows since when a buy zone has applied, when it was adjusted and when the price touched or left it. Recording began on Oct 12, 2026, only runs forward and fills nothing in – older zones are marked “known at start of recording” or “already existing when added”.Example: New buy zone on Oct 14, no adjustment since → “zone valid since Oct 14, 2026 · unchanged since”.More in the Academy: Lesson buy zone and Fibonacci

Elliott count: Flat (type known only after C), Corrective pattern (upward), C in progress (3 of 3 guidelines) · B = 89% of A; C = 86% of A
Comparison: The rule treats the last rise as the possible start of an upward impulse (without checking its history and structure). The Elliott count reads it as the first leg A of a correction.
Alternative (not drawn): Diagonal (contracting, leading), Impulse pattern (upward), Wave 5 in progress (2 of 4 guidelines)
Note: Flat type (regular, expanded, running) can only be decided once C is complete.
Note: Structure ambiguous: leg A, B can also be read as three- or five-part.
Note: Retracement at least 88.7% of A: flat possible (B in progress, type only with C).
Elliott count calculated automatically by fixed Elliott rules, not investment advice – display only, our buy zones do not use it. Provisional: The count can change with new candles.
Automated analysis (rule-based): the rule calculates waves and Fibonacci levels from the completed weekly candles; the chart is recalculated every day. Not investment advice. On this timeframe the chart only shows the rule setup (swing detection 2 × ATR) – the rule itself works on 4-hour candles. Axis and values: distance from the top of the buy zone in %, no prices. Fibonacci measured logarithmically (weekly candles).

Comparison: The rule treats the last rise as the possible start of an upward impulse (without checking its history and structure). The Elliott count reads it as the end of an upward correction (C).
Note: Running flat: rare, only in strong trends.

Timeframe 1 week · As of Oct 23, 2026 · from the Elliott count in the analysis chart
Weighting Main scenario: ahead (3 of 3 guidelines, strong) · Alternative: behind (2 of 4, medium) Guidelines (strength of the count)Guidelines are typical features of a count, such as usual Fibonacci lengths or a change in the form of correction. Strong means: at least three quarters met, medium: at least half, otherwise weak. Even a strong count can flip.Example: 3 of 3 guidelines → strong; 2 of 4 → medium; 1 of 3 → weak.More in the Academy: Lesson wave degrees
Weighting by guidelines met – not a probability.
As long as the weekly close stays above the end of B, this applies: flat countermove upward in three waves (Flat, type known only after C), C in progress – count points to rising prices.
Invalid if the weekly close is below the end of B (−7.3% from the top of the zone)
If that breaks, the second reading no longer applies either: wedge-shaped upward move in five waves (Diagonal, contracting, leading), wave 5 in progress – then there is no valid count for now; the next candles will produce a new one.
Invalid if the weekly close is below the end of wave 4 (−7.3% from the top of the zone)

Weighting by guidelines met – not a probability.
As long as the daily close stays below the end of C, this applies: flat countermove upward in three waves (Flat, running), C complete – count points to falling prices.
Invalid if the daily close is above the end of C (+15.1% from the top of the zone)
If that breaks, this count no longer applies. Currently no alternative that follows the rules.

As long as the hourly close stays below the end of Z, this applies: complex countermove upward (Combination W-X-Y-X-Z), Z complete – count points to falling prices.
Invalid if the hourly close is above the end of Z (+9.1% from the top of the zone)
If that breaks, the alternative moves to the front: Upward move in five waves (Impulse) – count points to rising prices, as long as the hourly close stays above the end of wave 1.
Invalid if the hourly close is below the end of wave 1 (−2.5% from the top of the zone)
The price is still above the buy zone (0 to −4.1% from its top) (61.8–78.6% of the wave 1 rise). Rule trigger: the daily low reaches the zone, then a swing high forms and a daily close is above it. Whether the price reaches the zone is open – if it rises above the wave 1 high first, the setup is void. All percentages: distance from the top of the buy zone.
In the TradingView chart: Draw the buy zone in the chart with the Fibonacci tool (instructions next to the wave chart) or as two horizontal lines (tool “Horizontal Line”). If the price closes below the start of wave 1 (−9.3%), the setup is void – without an entry of the rule.
Exit with a gain
Buy zone – Rule trigger: candle close above the swing high
Exit at a loss

Summarized from the lights below. Describes the reported figures – not a recommendation to buy or sell.
Fiscal year 2025 (Jan 1, 2025 – Dec 31, 2025): Revenue 26.2B USD · Net income 2.6B USD · Net margin 9.9%
Each light follows a simple, disclosed rule. The comparison is with the sector median Sector medianThe middle value of all companies in a sector: half are above it, half below. Unlike the average, single outliers hardly distort it.Example: Margins 4%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 60% → median 10%, average 18.8%.More in the Academy: Lesson putting the P/E in context of all 50 symbols in the Consumer Discretionary sector on our list (current members of the S&P 500 and other lists).
+19.9% per year, last 5 years
Sector Consumer Discretionary: median +11.0% (49 symbols)
What does this mean? Revenue: over 5 years it grew by 19.9% per year on average – at least as fast as the median company in the sector (+11.0%).
Light rule: Green: grows at least as fast as the sector median (without a sector comparison: grows) · Yellow: grows more slowly · Red: shrinks.
– per year, last 5 years
Sector Consumer Discretionary: median +9.7% (30 symbols)
per share: not computable (loss in the first or last year)
What does this mean? There was a loss in the first or last year. An annual growth rate cannot be calculated meaningfully then.
Light rule: Green: grows at least as fast as the sector median (without a sector comparison: grows) · Yellow: grows more slowly · Red: shrinks.
9.9% last fiscal year
Sector Consumer Discretionary: median 9.4% (49 symbols)
What does this mean? Of every 100 USD in revenue, 9.93 USD remained as profit – at least as much as the median company in the sector (9.4%). Five years ago the margin was −2.5%.
Light rule: Green: at least the sector median (without a sector comparison: profit) · Yellow: profit, but below the median · Red: loss.
– latest balance sheet
Sector Consumer Discretionary: median 0.76 (25 symbols)
What does this mean? Equity is negative (e.g. due to share buybacks). A debt-to-equity ratio cannot be formed meaningfully then.
Light rule: Green: at most the sector median · Yellow: up to twice the median · Red: more than twice · Gray: without a sector comparison.
28% Dividend / earnings per share
Sector Consumer Discretionary: median 32% (26 symbols)
What does this mean? Of every 1 USD of earnings per share, 0.28 USD went to shareholders as a dividend. The rest stays in the company. Median company in the sector: 32%.
Light rule: Green: up to 60% of earnings · Yellow: up to 100% · Red: more than earnings or a dividend despite a loss · Gray for real estate (REITs). The sector median is for comparison only.
9 of 10 fiscal years with a profit
What does this mean? In 9 of the last 10 fiscal years the bottom line showed a profit. One year ended with a loss.
Light rule: Green: profit in every year · Yellow: one loss year · Red: several loss years (at least 3 years needed).

How we calculate: values as first reported to the SEC (later corrections are left out), a fixed order of reporting tags per figure, partial sums are never added up. Growth per year Growth per year (CAGR)The average annual growth rate over several years, as if the value had grown equally strongly every year. Individual good or bad years even out in it.Example: Revenue €100m → €161m in 5 years → (161 ÷ 100) to the power of 1/5 − 1 = 10% per year.More in the Academy: Lesson debt, dividends and growth over 5 years (otherwise 3 years).
