Opportunity signals

  • Trend Signal is active with a 1-week active streak.
  • Price is above the Trend Line, keeping the weekly tape constructive.
  • Latest weekly return ranks in the strongest part of its sector group.

Risk signals

  • Market Dynamics is the pressure gauge to monitor for confirmation or fade.
  • A volume ratio above 1.5x would show stronger participation in the next move.
