The structural read

What price action says about VREX.

VREX qualifies for the Watch on decline depth — down -27.8% from its rolling 252-day high.

Cross-confirmation: also showing 3/5 bearish time frames.

Alongside that decline, our proprietary engine has flagged a confirmed bullish structural signal on one or more time frames — moderate or strong time-frame-continuity (TFC) alignment — so the ticker also carries a Recovering badge. The two readings coexist: the tier tells you how deep the damage is, the Recovering badge tells you whether momentum may be turning. Recovering is not a buy signal; it's a structural read.

Broken Stocks stops here — it flags the structure, it doesn't build the upside case. Working out whether VREX's turn is investable is what our sister tool does: ConvictionEdge — triple-engine conviction research on names showing a recovery signal.

Upstream TFC read: moderate alignment, current phase daily. Last bar types — daily 2U (green), weekly 2U (green), monthly 2D (red).

Earnings on file: 2026-05-07. Tiering is unaffected by earnings dates — listings reflect price structure only.

Questions about VREX

What people ask.

Why is VREX on Broken Stocks?

VREX qualifies for the Watch on decline depth. It is down -27.8% from its rolling 252-day high of $14.56, set on 2026-01-22 — 126d ago. It additionally carries a Recovering badge — see below.

What does the Recovering badge mean for VREX?

Recovering means our proprietary engine has flagged a confirmed bullish structural signal on one or more time frames (moderate or strong time-frame continuity). It coexists with the decline tier — VREX is still Watch because the rolling-252-day decline hasn't healed, but a bullish setup has formed inside that decline. The two readings answer different questions: the tier tells you how deep the damage is; the Recovering badge tells you whether momentum may be turning. It's not a buy recommendation.

Is VREX a falling knife?

No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. VREX is down -27.8% from its 52-week high, which qualifies for the Watch tier but is shallower than the falling-knife pattern. It's an early-stage decline rather than a sharp breakdown.

Is VREX 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 VREX trading inside its 52-week range?

At $10.52, VREX sits 48.2% of the way from its 52-week low ($6.76) to its 52-week high ($14.56). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has VREX been declining?

The current 27.8% decline accrued over 126d, which annualizes to roughly -80.5% per year. Annualized pace is a sanity check — a 30% decline in three months is a different signal than a 30% decline over two years.

How does VREX compare to its sector?

There are 194 other Healthcare tickers on Broken Stocks: 89 Red, 47 Amber, 58 Watch, with 107 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -36.0% — VREX's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does VREX's earnings date affect its tier?

No. Tiering is decided purely by decline depth and recency of the rolling-high date. The earnings date on file (2026-05-07) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
