Wait for pullback to $186.06. BUY gates pass at $202.55, but concentration risk — Customer: top end customer (>70% of revenue) (70.0%) and concentration risk — Supplier: TSMC argue for a more patient entry. Engine's entry $186.06 (Default 5pct Sticky) is the shallowest technical level that clears the 2:1 A.R:R minimum. Chart setup: Death cross but MACD improving, RSI 76. Growth is cheap relative to earnings, but the chart hasn't confirmed yet (PEG 0.66, quality 7.7/10, growth 10.0/10). Score 6.0/10, moderate confidence.

Passes 4/6 gates (positive momentum, clean insider activity, no SEC red flags, semi cycle peak clear). Fails on favorable risk/reward ratio and earnings proximity 5d<=7d. Suitability: aggressive.
