Cross-sectional percentile ranks AMD against ~200 liquid US names — a stock can be "up" and still lag the tape. Persistent top-quartile momentum across horizons is the profile trend systems allocate to.
Trend regime uses the 200-day moving average — the same gate the IVEST core applies before holding leveraged exposure. Composite score = 40·(trend) + 40·(momentum percentile) + 20·(1 − volatility percentile): fully transparent. Beta/correlation vs SPY over the last 12 months. Every number regenerates daily from raw prices — no analyst opinion in the loop.
Yes — AMD trades +91.4% above its 200-day moving average, the classic systematic uptrend definition.
No page can answer that for you — but a trend system's checklist is public: regime ✅ above the 200-day line; momentum percentile 100/100; extension ⚠ stretched (+91.4% — pullback entries preferred); predefined exit at 285.67. If any of those words are unfamiliar, position sizing — not stock picking — is the first thing to learn (Kelly calculator).
