What does it mean?
- 8-week price move: 29.87%. Weekly return volatility: 2.47%. Close is 0.24% above the prior-window 8-week high. and 29.87% above the prior-window 8-week low. Volume trend: falling. Latest week’s volume is 0.57σ from its 8-week average. Price/volume correlation (returns vs volume): 0.12. Price/volume correlation (returns vs volume change): -0.26. 26-week move: 8.25%. 52-week move: -13.07%. Price sits 0.34% below its medium-term baseline, and the distance is widening. Moving-average stack is constructive (short above intermediate above long).
- How to read this — Price slope is upward, indicating persistent buying over the window. Volume trend diverges from price — watch for fatigue or rotation. Constructive MA stack supports the up-drift; pullbacks may find support at the 8–13 week region. Price holds above key averages, indicating constructive participation.
- Up-slope supports buying interest; pullbacks may be contained if activity stays firm. Because liquidity isn’t confirming, prefer evidence of fresh demand before chasing moves.
