  3. Target 2 or trailing exit: Consider closing the remaining position at Target 2, or use a disciplined trailing stop only if the trend remains strong.
  4. Time exit: Reassess or close a trade that fails to progress within the suggested holding window.

Easy explanation for new investors

Why the scanner noticed this stock
The scanner looks for patterns that suggest a stock’s direction. It noticed Range Resources Corp, or RRC, using a rule called "Trend Pullback to 20 EMA." Think of the 20 EMA like a moving average line that shows the average price over the last month. When a stock generally goes up but takes a small break, it might bounce back up. RRC is trading near this line. The scanner gave it a score of 65 out of 100. This is a moderate score. It means the stock shows some good signs, such as steady upward movement, but it is not a perfect match for the pattern. The system checked the trend, how strong the movement is, and the trading volume. Everything fit together enough to add RRC to your watch list for a closer look.

What the price plan means
This part shows a plan if you choose to follow this idea. The entry zone is between $41.88 and $42.14. This is where the setup starts. If the price drops below $40.34, the plan is invalid. This is your stop-loss, which is a safety limit to cut losses. There are two targets: $44.96 and $46.50. These are levels where the plan suggests checking if you should close the position. The reward-to-risk ratio is 2. This means the potential gain is twice as big as the potential loss. For every dollar you might lose, the plan aims for two dollars of gain. This helps balance risk with reward.

What could make the idea fail
This is not a promise. Markets change fast. The plan could fail if the price drops below the $40.34 level. Other unexpected news or market changes could also break the pattern. The scanner found this on September 11, 2026, and the idea expires on September 21, 2026. After that, the data is old and the plan is no longer useful. Always check current prices before acting.
