RSI (14) Healthy pullback

RSI(14) is 55.7. 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) Bullish — fast line above signal

Volume Analysis Balanced volume

Up-day and down-day volume are roughly even (ratio 1.22) 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 ($139.28) is -8.1% below the anchored VWAP ($151.48). 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 $139.28. Resistance above: $141.22, $145.06, $146.97. Support below: $138.86, $136.41, $133.52.

Watch $141.22 as the first upside level to clear, and $138.86 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
