Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is not active. Price is 7.2% above the Trend Line and sits at 64.4% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 1.4%, after a 3.5% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks weakly versus its universe; growth is moderate; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. Options positioning is mixed with 31/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 52/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 12d.

  • Activity pressure is positive on the latest completed week.
What could go wrong

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