Bollinger Bands Near the upper band — momentum hot

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $120.36, upper $122.76, middle $115.31, lower $107.86. Price is near the upper band — momentum hot.

Bandwidth is 12.9% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Healthy pullback

RSI(14) is 61.7. 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) Bearish — momentum slowing

MACD (12, 26, 9): line $3.98, signal $3.98, histogram -0.005.

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 1.02) 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 accumulating

The Accumulation/Distribution line is rising and sitting near highs. Institutions are not aggressively distributing — large funds still appear net long.

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 ($120.36) is +23.3% above the anchored VWAP ($97.59). 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 2 resistance / 3 support levels

Current price $120.36. Resistance above: $122.76, $124.74. Support below: $118.87, $116.98, $115.31.

Watch $122.76 as the first upside level to clear, and $118.87 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
