Eighty-five names scanned and not one breaking out — that tells me the line of least resistance is still sideways, not up. Nineteen approaching is a watch list, not a buy list; I never pay for a stock until it proves it can clear its pivot on volume. CDW, CHRD, CIB failing is the market talking, and I listen to price, not hope. I sit with cash and wait for the tape to confirm.
