Eben@CANSLIM ResearchPorch Group (PRCH) is trading at $17.38, holding above its rising 30-week moving average, confirming a Stage 2 advancing trend. The stock has rallied 171.6% off its 52-week low and sits just 8.7% below its high, with the relative strength line near a three-month peak.
However, the current base is a deep 66.4% correction over 47 weeks, a pattern with an elevated failure rate, and no clear VCP contraction sequence has formed. While the overall sentiment is constructive, the lack of a confirmed breakout from the faulty base keeps the outlook cautious until a decisive move above the $19.04 pivot occurs.

Detected Patterns — What the Market Is Watching
- Deep Base (>33% — elevated failure rate) — depth 66.4%, length 47 weeks, pivot $19.04. Base formed from 2025-09-08 (left-side high) to 2026-08-14, with the low of $6.4 set on 2026-02-05
⚠️ Faulty cup warning: the base is 66.4% deep (above the 38–40% threshold). A correction this deep leaves heavy overhead supply — trapped holders from higher prices are likely to sell into any rally, raising the failure rate of a breakout from this base.
