Super Setups Top 2: DE vs HCA Money Flow & Bullish Strength

I'll start by pulling the Super Setup tickers fromThe Super Setup scanner returned 15 candidates with bullish EMA stack/compression patterns. Here are the setups sorted by conviction quality (those flagged Super-Setup* = higher-tier setups):

Top candidates by technical strength:

Ticker	RSI-14	MACD Hist	Above Cloud	Volume vs avg	Close
$DE	63.19	+1.37	Yes	182.7%	$651.36
$HCA	63.42	+0.76	Yes	120.4%	$428.95
$CCJ	61.71	+0.81	No (Inside)	118.3%	$102.22
$HOOD	61.94	+1.20	No (Inside)	248.6%	$106.93
$SOFI	58.25	+0.06	Yes	—	$18.89

The two strongest — $DE (all EMA stack above cloud, ATR-crossed, full candle range up) and $HCA (above-cloud, ATR-crossed, RSI 63) — are my top 2 picks. PullHere's the analysis. I selected the top 2 super setups by setup strength (both carry the Super-Setup* elevated flag with volume expansion, above-cloud structure, and the full EMA stack), then pulled their near-term (0-7 DTE) money flow.

Top 2 Super Setups

Ticker	Price	RSI	Key Setup Terms
$DE	$651.36	63.19	Super-Setup*, Volume 183%, ATR-Crossed-UP, Above-Cloud, EMA[8,13,21,34] Cross-UP, SMA50 Cross-UP
$HCA	$428.95	63.42	Super-Setup*, Volume 120%, ATR-Crossed-UP, Above-Cloud, EMA13 Cross-UP

Both are technically bullish structures (EMA stack, above cloud, strong momentum). But options flow tells a different story.

Near-Term (0-7 DTE) Money Flow

$DE — Net Bearish, Turning Sharply Negative

Net premium (7 days): -$1.48M — Bull/Bear ratio 0.29 (strong bearish dominance)
Trend inflection: strongSweepNet flipped negative on 8/20 with a $-1.01M print — driven by a $1.09M sweepPutBought (urgent bearish). Sweep share spiked to 0.89 that day = urgency has turned bearish.
Big bearish concentration on 8/20 ($880K calls sold + $1.09M put buy). Recent momentum is actively bearish despite the clean chart setup.

$HCA — Moderate Bearish (income-driven, no urgency)

Fresh | 2 trading days: Net -$630K, Bull/Bear ratio 0 (zero bullish premium)
Both flow days were sold calls (sweep $72K + block $493K) — defensive/income positioning, no urgent directional buys.
No sign flip, no put-buy urgency. Bearish but mild in character vs. $DE's aggressive sweep.

Which is the Strongest Bullish?

Neither is actually bullish in near-term money flow — both are net bearish right now. On a relative basis:

$DE has the deeper and more urgent bearish flow (negative strongSweepNet, sign-flipped, sweep-dominant). Its chart setup is strong, but near-term flow is actively fighting it.
$HCA is less bearish — its flow is mild, defensive selling with no urgent bearish bets.

So if we're ranking which shows the relative bullish resilience among the two, $HCA is the strongest — its near-term positioning is far less bearish than $DE's. Note the caveat: money flow was queried for the top-2 picks I selected ($DE, $HCA); I didn't find a distinct "those 5" subset in the scan output, so if you intended a different set, let me know which, and I'll pull their flow too.
