These tiers rank actionability and context for the next session.
Glossary of Opportunity Tiers
Every ticker mentioned in The Alpha Ledger has been pre qualified. These tiers rank actionability and context for the next session.
Early Ignition Field
This is the open focused tier. The trend aligns across Daily, Hourly, and 15 minute. Hourly and 15 minute already show ignition through live thrust. Price has not pushed beyond extension, so entries are not chase based. This tier differs from Action Book because it targets near term execution, not just structural quality.
How to use it: This is the first list to watch at the open. Look for early confirmation, do not chase.
Action Book
Stocks that are structurally ready in Momentum Dynamics. These names have met higher confirmation standards and represent top trade candidates, pending proper execution conditions.
How to use it: These are high quality names to stalk. They may work at the open, but often set up better after the first range forms. When shown as a label inside Early Ignition Field, Action Book means the name meets the structural Action Book standard in addition to near term ignition.
Core Universe
The full pool of pre qualified stocks identified by Momentum Dynamics. These names are tradeable candidates for further evaluation, but not all will be equally actionable tomorrow.
How to use it: This is the bench. Use it for scanning and context, not for forcing trades.
Labels
High Conviction
Action Book names only. The strongest Momentum Dynamics opportunities where setup readiness and momentum expansion align. Highest priority when present.
How to use it: Treat this as a priority and sizing modifier, not a separate tier.
Open Field
Stocks aligned across higher timeframes using Fibonacci pivot points. These names trade above the Pivot and far enough below R2 to preserve room for expansion. This label highlights cleaner trend terrain, not momentum strength. It does not upgrade priority by itself.
How to use it: Use it for target planning and room to run. Do not treat it as an entry signal.
Grounded
Stocks with stable financial foundations that can support sustained structural momentum, including consistent revenue trends, disciplined leverage, durable profitability. This label provides foundational strength rather than near term trading urgency.
How to use it: Use it as a context label. It supports patience, it does not create urgency.
Closing Note
The Alpha Ledger is a screening digest. It is not a recommendation to buy or sell any security. Capital preservation comes first.
