# Score derivation (from the pipeline's game-state.json):
import json
state = json.load(open('scripts/data/AVGO/game-state.json'))
score = int(state['game_equilibrium']['equilibrium_score'] * 100)
print(f'Score: {{score}}/100') # clamped to [0, 100]Trading Playbook
Use these concrete steps to apply the analysis above — every level comes from the AVGO data already in this report:
- Set your invalidation level. A daily close below $335 support invalidates the Buy thesis — reduce exposure rather than averaging down.
- Define the upside. The next resistance sits at $447 with the analyst mean target at $522.06. Scale out in tranches between these two levels to lock in gains as price approaches the target.
- Check the score before adding. The current AVGO score is 98/100 (Buy) — derived from the game-theory equilibrium, so re-read
game-state.jsonbefore any new entry. - Size for the ATR. If position sizing is new to you, start with a fixed-fraction allocation so a 2× ATR adverse move costs no more than 1% of your account ↗.
- Log the thesis. Write down the decision summary (
🟢 Strong Buy — 98/100, AVGO trades 29% below analyst mean target of $522.06 (-$20.06, -20....) so you can audit your entry against the original reasoning next week ↗.
Recommended next step: monitor the next earnings print and the news summary above — set an alert on $335 and $447 and adjust the playbook as the levels update.
