The three badges at a glance
1Rising fast
It appears on a stock showing "Trend Continuation" that rose 30% or more over the last 20 sessions. Example: the stock closed at 10.00 20 sessions ago and is now 13.40, up 34%, so the badge shows.
The badge measures the speed of the rise, not where the price stands. A stock that rose this fast usually moves more unevenly, and the badge says so without changing the signal.
2Support broken
It appears when a stock closes more than 2% under its support level and its signal is not "Trend Continuation". Example: support 8.00, close 7.80, which is 2.5% under it, so the badge shows. A close of 7.88, only 1.5% under, does not trigger it.
This badge also explains something you may notice: the old support level disappears from the card once the price falls under it, and the badge reminds you it was broken.
3Speculative spike
It appears on a stock showing "Weakening Trend" when its last completed session rose 10% or more. Example: yesterday's close 5.00, today's 5.60, up 12%, and the signal is "Weakening Trend", so the badge shows.
This badge explains a confusing sight: a stock jumping hard today while its signal says "Weakening Trend". The signal rests on weeks of movement and the jump is one day, so both are true at once.
