Trade Setup: PSX
Setup
Phillips 66 (PSX) was identified using our custom Meta Setup Score, which ranks candidates by how many of our individual screens agree on the same name rather than by any single signal. A high score means the setup is confirmed from more than one direction, not that any one of those directions is strong. The trade will be exited on the trend rather than at fixed targets.
Entry
We entered PSX on September 11, 2026 at $263.36.
Stop
No fixed stop price is set on this position. The exit rule is a dynamic stop that trails the trade while the trend holds, so the market sets the exit rather than a level chosen in advance.
Targets
No fixed price targets are set. We will let the trend determine the exit.
Risk / Reward
Risk is managed by the trailing stop rather than a fixed distance from entry, so there is no initial risk percentage to quote. That buys the position room to develop on a signal that is meant to be held, and it costs us a loss whose size is known before the trade starts. Position size is doing the work a stop distance would normally do.
Trigger
The entry was triggered by the Meta Setup Score crossing our threshold, which happens when several independent screens surface the same name at once.
Invalidation
A break of the trend structure invalidates the setup. Exit the position when the trailing stop is violated. The score falling back below threshold is a warning rather than an exit on its own.
Status
Open.
Trade Plan
No trim levels are set in advance. The stop trails the position while the trend holds, and tightens as the trade develops.
What We're Watching
Confirmation is the trend extending while the component screens continue to agree. The thesis breaks if the score decays because the underlying signals roll over one by one, which is what a top looks like from inside this system.
