Meta's AI comeback story is winning over Wall Street — ride the breakout

Thesis

Meta had been stuck in the doldrums for the better part of a year, but the market is suddenly falling back in love with the stock. The big catalyst is their artificial intelligence push, which analysts believe could unlock massive new revenue. When a massive company like Meta catches a fresh wave of analyst upgrades and positive sentiment after a long pause, the resulting momentum often carries the stock significantly higher as institutional money rotates back in.

Strategy approach

Build a rule-based strategy that enters long META on D1 when price closes above the 20-day high (breakout) and the 10-day average volume exceeds the 50-day average volume (volume confirmation). Exit when price closes below the 10-day moving average, or hold for a maximum of 21 trading days.
