Trend Downtrend in force

SYF (SYF) is trading at $72.40. Over the last 128 sessions the trend is **down** with a +4.5% move.

Price is -10.6% from the 6-month high and +6.1% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~23%.

Price is on the 15-day MA ($72.60) and below the 50-day SMA ($76.63).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $72.40, upper $77.52, middle $73.48, lower $69.45. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 11.0% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Below 50

RSI(14) is 42.2. 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 $-1.49, signal $-1.48, histogram -0.013.

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 1.13) 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 on hold

The A/D line slope is flat and the line is well off highs — institutions are neither aggressively accumulating nor distributing.

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 ($72.40) is -3.0% below the anchored VWAP ($74.67). 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 $72.40. Resistance above: $73.54, $75.34, $76.24. Support below: $71.33, $70.22, $69.40.

Watch $73.54 as the first upside level to clear, and $71.33 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
