How the Weinstein Stage 1 — Base Formation scanner works

Stan Weinstein's Stage Analysis framework divides a stock's lifecycle into four stages. Stage 1 is the basing phase — where a stock has stopped declining and is building a foundation for a new uptrend. These bases can last months, and the best breakouts come from the longest, tightest bases. Our scanner identifies stocks currently in Stage 1, looking for flattening moving averages, tightening price ranges, and early signs of accumulation volume.

What we analyze

30-week moving average flattening
Price range contraction in the base
Duration of the basing period
Volume accumulation signals
Proximity to Stage 2 breakout

How our grading system works

For Stage 1 setups, an A+ grade means the 30-week MA has fully flattened after a prolonged decline with tightening price range and early accumulation volume. Lower grades indicate the base is still forming. This is not a prediction of future price movement — it is a way to prioritize which charts deserve your attention first.

A+
Textbook setup with strong confluence
A
High-quality setup worth watching
B+
Decent setup with some reservations
B
Pattern detected but lower conviction
