One of the small number of Expansion Pivot Buy Setups from yesterday's close that I might take today.

I love your consistency with the choice of setups!  I could see this at least getting back to the Feb (and post-earnings) high.  These earnings gap fills are one of my bread & butter plays in bull markets.

I am testing some of your Strength setups.  Decided not to take FLWS yesterday, but is still on my radar.  I am cautious because I sense we are in a bull rally in a bear market.  And likely, IMHO, near the end of that bull rally.

The strength/breakout setups will definitely do better in an up-trending market environment. Range-bound strategies (buy oversold/bottom of range/channel, sell overbought/top of range/channel) are doing better now

... and the breakout scans for bearish bets, in my view, will be coming into some popularity pretty soon...
