what makes a stock go from “interesting” to “worth serious capital” for you?

I’m trying to refine my process for picking Indian stocks ,not for quick trades, but for medium-term holds (weeks to months). Instead of asking for stock names, I’m more curious about how you decide when a stock deserves real attention. Some things I’ve been thinking about: •Do you start with price action or business fundamentals? •How important is consolidation near support/resistance before a move? •Do you wait for volume confirmation, or is clean structure enough? •At what point does a stock move from watchlist to actual position for you? Not looking for buy/sell calls ,just trying to understand how experienced Indian market participants filter noise and build conviction. Would love to hear different approaches.
