Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is not active. Price is 0.3% above the Trend Line and sits at 42.6% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned -6.6%, after a 2.9% 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 volatility with 64/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 22/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 13d.

  • Activity pressure is positive on the latest completed week.
  • Next-week expectancy is positive at 61.41% based on similar historical setup states.
What could go wrong

  • The latest week was a sharp negative move.
What to watch next
  • Trend Line remains the key weekly regime level.
  • Activity pressure is the gauge to monitor for confirmation or fade.
