The structural read
What price action says about EGY.
EGY qualifies for the Amber List on decline sigma — the recent drop measures 6.4σ over a 20-bar window. Sigma scales the move by the stock's own typical daily volatility, so a small percentage drop in a normally-quiet name can land here when the bigger players miss it on a pure-percent threshold.
Upstream TFC read: bearish alignment, current phase daily. Last bar types — daily 2U (red), weekly 2D (red), monthly 1 (red).

Questions about EGY
What people ask.
Why is EGY on Broken Stocks?
EGY qualifies for the Amber List on decline sigma. The recent drop measures 6.4σ over a 20-bar window — large enough that even a small percentage drop is structurally significant given the stock's typical day-to-day volatility (3.23%).
Is EGY a falling knife?
EGY is on Broken Stocks for time-frame continuity or decline-sigma reasons rather than headline depth, so the falling-knife label doesn't cleanly apply. The phrase usually requires a meaningful percentage drop from a fresh high. See the structural break signals above for the axis that actually triggered the listing.
Is EGY a buy?
Broken Stocks does not issue buy or sell recommendations. The list is a rules-based technical warning system. It tracks structural decline depth and recency — not company quality, management, fundamentals, or news. Always do your own research and consult a licensed advisor.
Where is EGY trading inside its 52-week range?
At $5.32, EGY sits 18.5% of the way from its 52-week low ($5.00) to its 52-week high ($6.72). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
