Wait for pullback to $705.55. Weak momentum — blocks BUY_NOW at $717.92. Engine's entry $705.55 (50% gap fill) is the shallowest technical level that clears the 2:1 A.R:R minimum. Key risks: Semi cycle peak: fwd P/E 6.8× (below 10) + fwd/trail 0.21× (below 0.30). EPS just expanded off a trough — likely peak cyclical earnings.; Concentration risk — Geographic: Taiwan (DRAM fabrication). Chart setup: No recognized chart pattern (not a breakout, bounce, continuation, recovery, falling knife, or range) — technicals mixed. Growth is cheap relative to earnings, but the chart hasn't confirmed yet (PEG 0.24, quality 8.6/10, growth 10.0/10). Score 6.4/10, moderate confidence.

Passes 5/8 gates (clean insider activity, no SEC red flags, news events none recent, earnings proximity 35d clear, materials cycle peak clear). Fails on weak momentum and favorable risk/reward ratio and cycle peak fwd=6.8x,ratio=0.21x. Suitability: aggressive.
