⚠️ This risk flag is not a ranking — it reflects "chase / volatility risk if entering right now"
Low risk

Few overheating or already-surging signals — relatively calm. A good stage to observe pre-breakout conditions patiently.

Caution

Some risk factors present — volatility, short-term overheating, or thin liquidity. Size and scale in carefully if entering.

High Risk

Already surged, RSI overheated, extended far from highs, or earnings imminent. Chasing now carries meaningful pullback risk.

Technical Diagnostic Summary
VSTS — the scanner detected a 'Breakout Imminent (Squeeze + Near Resistance)' pattern. RSI at 61 shows accelerating momentum, though still below overbought levels. Bollinger Band width has contracted to the bottom 11% of its past year, consistent with energy building ahead of a possible breakout. OBV is drifting mildly higher, suggesting low-intensity accumulation at most. ADX 25 suggests an early-stage trend, with buying pressure ahead of selling. 20-day RS vs. SPY of +9.5pp shows relative strength versus the market. Price sits just 1.7% below its 20-day high — a tight coil right under resistance that can precede a breakout. Flagged Caution on rising volatility or short-term overheating — approach with care.
