The pivot is the high of the last contraction in a VCP base, the price Mark Minervini uses as his buy point. This is step 5 of the Minervini ladder: it keeps the Trend Template and VCP conditions and lists stocks on Asian exchanges trading within 6% of their 20-day high while the 10-day average volume is below the 50-day average, a sign that sellers have dried up. This is the list to watch for the next breakout; the pivot price is shown for each stock. Prices are in each exchange's local currency, and the list covers stocks traded in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore, Seoul and Jakarta with at least about US$0.7 million in average daily trading value.
