Chart Talk 17 | Length & Quality of Watchlist

Alec Riffle reviews a live watchlist and explains how the "needs more sideways" list should contain stocks that have momentum characteristics but still need time to form actionable setups in his playbook. He emphasizes rules: each name must have an alert and a clear trigger (commonly a high-volume-close or yesterday's high), and the list length/quality reflects overall market health. The speaker walks through many tickers (LMND, SLDP, LIGHT, QBTS, RGTI, IONQ, PLUG, BTU, SNDK, APLD, and others), judges chart cleanliness, liquidity, and suitability, and grades the market ~2.5–3/5 given mixed ignition candles but many broken charts.
