Today's pick · Highly Shorted Deep Rotation RSI & ConfMIRBUY NOW8.5 / 109/11/2026

Mirion Technologies is the cleanest setup on this list: it passes the screen (short float 15.31%, RSI 50.57) while sitting at rock bottom of its 4h range (pos_in_21bar_range_pct 0, dd -15.59%) and the low-end of its weekly range (19.4%). That's the opposite of chasing — you're buying a name that's already been beaten down (perfYtd -32.37%, perfYear -25.77%) rather than paying up for a top-of-range breakout. The forecast tape then confirms with real magnitude: 4h fc_short +55.49%, fc_mid +41.56%, fc_long +61.98%, and 1d fc_mid +36.91% / fc_long +27.22%. Kronos bullish_prob is 1.0 with near_term_bullish 0.8 — the strongest short-horizon read in the pool. News acts as the tiebreaker in MIR's favor. On Sep-8 the CFO Brian Schopfer bought 20,000 shares (open-market insider buying at the lows is a high-signal event), and Jefferies initiated coverage at Buy on Sep-4. Analyst consensus is already recom 1.27 with targetUpsidePct +53.2. Fundamentals are the weak spot (trailing PE 179.59, ROE 1.49%, profitMargin 2.39%) but forward PE compresses to 23.93 on epsNextY +22.1% and salesYoY +15.68%, and instOwn is 107.7% (heavy institutional ownership + high short float = classic squeeze fuel). Why today vs. waiting: MIR is literally at the floor of its 4h range with insider buys stamped into the tape 3 days ago and a fresh sell-side initiation. Waiting for a pullback risks missing the reversion trade because the drawdown IS the pullback. PSIX has stronger fundamentals and a bigger expected return, but it's sitting at 75% of the 4h range and 65% of daily — you're chasing. CRK has a real catalyst (SOCAR $1.65B LOI) but is pinned at 94.7% of 4h range with a bearish weekly forecast (-4.4% mid). SMCI's forecasts are outright negative across every TF (-21% to -42%) — the screen-pass is misleading. MIR is the rare name where fundamentals-lite is offset by a squeeze setup, positive insider action, and multi-TF forecast alignment from a bombed-out base.

Entry zone

$15.00 – $15.60 (current $15.43, buy on any dip toward $15.00 which is prior 21-bar low support)

Stop loss

$13.90 (below the 4h 21-bar low ~$14.60 with buffer; ~10% risk)

First target

$17.30 (fills the 4h dd_from_21bar_high of -15.59%, ~12% gain)

Longer target

$20.50 – $22.00 (aligns with 4h fc_long +61.98% blended with 1d fc_long +27.22% and analyst targetUpsidePct +53.2%)

Risks

Weekly tape is still ugly: recent_21bar_pct -21.71% and 1wk fc_long -10.54% — if the weekly downtrend reasserts, the 4h squeeze fails
Trailing PE 179.59 and profitMargin 2.39% mean any earnings miss gets punished hard; fwdPe 23.93 assumes epsNextY +22.1% actually lands
Short float 15.31% is meaningful but not extreme — squeeze upside is real but not explosive vs. 30%+ names like CRK/BTDR
debtEq 0.68 is manageable but roe of only 1.49% shows the balance sheet isn't producing much yet
Insider CFO buy was only 20,000 shares (~$300K) — supportive but not enormous conviction

Honorable mentions

CRKFresh hard catalyst (SOCAR $1.65B LOI + Jerry Jones JV Sep-10), strong fundamentals (PE 8.82, profitMargin 26.77%, ROE 20.92%), 4h fc_short +65.77%. Downside: pinned at 94.7% of 4h range = chasing risk, and weekly forecast turns negative (-3.94% long).

PSIXHighest fundamental_score (7.25) and expected_return (97.5%), recom 1.0, fwdPe 10.32, ROE 40.07%. 4h fc_long +100.28% is huge. But pos 75% of 4h range and weekly fc_long -39.78% means you're buying the top of a bear-trend bounce — better on a pullback to $36.
