  • Activity pressure is positive on the latest completed week.
  • Volume is elevated versus the 13-week average, confirming attention.
What could go wrong

  • Price is below Fair Value, so the market is still discounting the latest tape.
  • Next-week expectancy is negative at 40.24% based on similar historical setup states.
  • Activity pressure is weak, so confirmation is not yet broad enough.
What to watch next
