RSI (14) Healthy pullback

RSI(14) is 59.2. Above 50 — bullish momentum intact, no exhaustion.

Generally: above 70 = overheated, above 50 = bullish trend, below 50 = bearish trend, below 30 = oversold.

MACD (12, 26, 9) Bullish — fast line above signal

Volume Analysis Balanced volume

Up-day and down-day volume are roughly even (ratio 1.14) over the recent 19 sessions — no strong conviction either way.

Rule of thumb: price up on high volume = accumulation; price down on high volume = distribution. Low-volume pullbacks after a rally are usually profit-taking, not panic.

Smart Money (A/D) Smart money distributing

The A/D line is falling and well off highs. If smart money were exiting you would expect lower highs and volume spikes on down days — distribution pressure is building.

A/D combines price position within the day's range with volume: rising = net buying pressure, falling = net selling pressure. It often leads price at turning points.

Anchored VWAP Above anchored VWAP — period buyers in profit

Price ($344.67) is +3.4% above the anchored VWAP ($333.24). Buyers who entered at the period's volume-weighted average are in profit and less likely to panic-sell.

Anchored VWAP is the volume-weighted average from the start of the scraped series — a proxy for the period's average institutional cost basis.

Key Levels 3 resistance / 3 support levels

Current price $344.67. Resistance above: $347.13, $355.59, $374.45. Support below: $343.76, $339.29, $334.59.

Watch $347.13 as the first upside level to clear, and $343.76 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
