Discovery — 2026-09-24

Collecting for 2026-09-25 — the overnight watchlist is building (watch it live). Below is the 2026-09-24 morning scan.

Overnight gap-up Discovery · net gap >30% & dip >30% · 11 passed of 22 discovered · 10 below the net (not shown) · 1 outside $0.50–$100 (not shown) — the ranking lists passers only; every other name is at the bottom of the page with the reason.
How the score works (rebuilt 8/21): it is the GAP and the DIP, nothing else — the only two measures that held up across 430 real trades. Gap 30–99% with a dip past the prior close scores highest; a gap over 100% scores low. 58 is the line: at or over it a name can be a PICK. (The GO / STRONG GO / MIXED / AVOID words were retired 9/22.) Deeper dip nudges the score up within a band. Price, borrow, recovery, float and volume are shown for your eyes but score nothing — none survived testing. Peak measured 4 PM the night before to 8 AM, lone wicks ignored. Eyeball rule (8/21, not yet scored): a sub-$1 name that has NOT fallen below its prior close (price under $1, dip under 100%) is a skip — since July those ran 25% win, about −5%/trade, while sub-$1 names that DID fall below the base were the best slice of STRONG GO. Twelve trades of evidence: apply by eye, not as a rule.
★ EVENING SETUP + PREMARKET THRUST (8/21, shown not scored): the peak AND the dip both printed last night (score >60 on the evening candles alone), and then between 7:00 and 8:45 the stock made at least one ≥5% thrust over the top of a prior 5-minute candle body — bought at 9:00 as usual. Since July: +0.2%/trade at 54% win (n=452); the same evening setup WITHOUT the thrust ran about break-even (shown as a grey tag); a big thrust on a name whose peak came in the premarket lost money (the thrust IS the spike there), so this badge only ever appears on evening setups. The thrust need not hold into 8:45. Seven weeks of data, found while testing entries — watch it earn its keep before it scores.

The playbook — peak/dip timing × thrust

Each cell: the last two years (Sep 2024 – Sep 2026, 4,605 names on the rebuilt list) on the first line, then the same numbers over the rolling last 20 trading days (from Aug 26). Average return per trade, normal 9:00 entry, idealized fills — subtract about 1 point for real-world cost. The two-year line replaced the July-onward numbers on 9/21 (Mike): the summer flattered every cell. Refreshed nightly. Thrust = a ≥5% move over a prior 5-min candle body top. Small cells — treat the ordering as solid, exact dollars as soft.

Peak / dip timing	AM thrust (7:00–8:45)	No AM thrust
Peak + dip the night before ★	+0.2% · 54% win Sep 2024 – Sep 2026 n=452 +9.4% · 83% win last 20 days n=17	+0.6% · 45% win Sep 2024 – Sep 2026 n=86 −2.2% · 29% win last 20 days n=17

Thrust timing, on the night-before setups only

PM thrust (last night) and AM thrust	+1.8% · 58% win Sep 2024 – Sep 2026 n=202 +11.5% · 86% win last 20 days n=14
AM thrust only	−0.5% · 50% win Sep 2024 – Sep 2026 n=181 −0.2% · 67% win last 20 days n=3
PM thrust only (no AM follow-through)	+1.3% · 51% win Sep 2024 – Sep 2026 n=41 +1.4% · 40% win last 20 days n=10
Neither	−0.8% · 37% win Sep 2024 – Sep 2026 n=41 −7.3% · 14% win last 20 days n=7

Read it as: when the peak and the dip both finished last night, an AM thrust on top is the green light. When the peak was this morning, a thrust after the dip means the price is already climbing back before 9:00, so the buy is above the dip — those did worse than names still quiet at 9:00. A thrust that came while the dip was still forming was the worst place to buy. The pill uses this split: a peak-and-dip from last night whose only thrust came last night (PM only) is quoted from the “PM thrust only” row and is a PICK; one with no thrust in either session reads the “Neither” row and waits for the AM thrust. Refreshed nightly.

LIST BREADTH: MIDDLE — 12.8 names a day over the last 30 days (typical 12.0; quiet under 11, busy 13.5+; through 2026-09-23)

The number that matters is how BUSY the list has been, not how it did. Over two years, no steady read: the middle third was −2.2% in year one and +1.6% in year two. It is a mild tilt (correlation about 0.1), the only reading that held in both years; the old COLD/WARM/HOT mood did not.

For the record, not a forecast: the whole list over the last 10 days +3.1% (+2.1% after ~1 pt slippage) a name (136 names) · your PICKs alone +2.1% (+1.1% after ~1 pt slippage) (33 picks).

Last 5 days, PICK win rate: 67% (HIGH) on 24 picks — after readings like this the next morning has won about 58-59%; base rate 55%. A next-day tilt of about ten points, not a forecast, and nothing for the week ahead.

3 names meet the BUY RULE (a PICK that is seen before — a PICK any time, or on the list in the last 120 days — and traded in at least half of the premarket minutes; plus any evening setup with last night’s thrust and a small AM thrust, seen or not); boxed and listed first.

Row notes: dark green = helped most over two years light green = helped; any green seen-note + green minutes = the buy rule amber = hurt grey = neither, information only. More green, better.
