Trend Downtrend in force

MLM (MLM) is trading at $551.93. Over the last 125 sessions the trend is **down** with a -20.7% move.

Price is -22.1% from the 6-month high and +5.1% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~39%.

Price is on the 15-day MA ($552.68) and below the 50-day SMA ($574.65).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $551.93, upper $586.36, middle $557.11, lower $527.86. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 10.5% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Below 50

RSI(14) is 49.7. Momentum has faded; the bullish case needs rebuilding.

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

MACD (12, 26, 9) Bearish — momentum slowing

MACD (12, 26, 9): line $-8.78, signal $-8.48, histogram -0.305.

The fast line has crossed below the signal line and the histogram is negative. Price may still be rising overall, but momentum is weakening — often seen before a correction, a sideways consolidation, or a final push higher.

Volume Analysis Balanced volume

Up-day and down-day volume are roughly even (ratio 0.86) 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 Below anchored VWAP — period buyers underwater

Price ($551.93) is -7.6% below the anchored VWAP ($597.27). Period buyers are underwater — overhead supply tends to cap rallies.

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 $551.93. Resistance above: $552.60, $561.88, $575.25. Support below: $548.69, $539.96, $523.48.

Watch $552.60 as the first upside level to clear, and $548.69 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
