The pattern census registered 82 breakouts against 32 breakdowns, with oversold setups at 46. The top opportunity screener flagged VG (Energy) with an opportunity score of 89.0 in a breakout wave, while OKLO (Utilities) scored 83.7 in accumulation. The highest-rated trade setup was a head-and-shoulders short in BLDR at 74.9, followed by a donchian breakdown in ACI at 74.7. Intraday confirmation failed across the top five screener names, as each closed negative and underperformed its basket, indicating no immediate follow-through on signal generation.

Labels are monotone in forward VOLATILITY, not direction — size positions to the risk state, don't chase the label. Transition is empirical; a label change needs two-run confirmation.
The current regime is Choppy Neutral (composite 0.4025, confidence 0.87), initiated July 23 and expected to persist for 7.7 trading days, with 6.7 remaining. Breadth sits at 62.9% above the 50-day moving average and 67.9% above the 200-day, while the advance-decline ratio is 1.93 and 55.3% of baskets are positive. Volatility is elevated but contained, with 20-day realized volatility at the 35.5th percentile of the two-year range. Rotation component is elevated at 1.4, indicating active sector shifts. Historically, this regime most often transitions to Constructive Rotation (52.5%) or Distribution Risk (28.8%).
