TECHNICAL RATING
TECHNICAL SCORE
71 / 100
Summary
Price sits about 3.1% above the 20-day moving average, roughly 0.9% below the 50-day moving average, and about 2.7% above the 200-day moving average, and the 50/200 relationship currently shows a Golden cross. Momentum is confirming the trend: MACD is above its signal line with a positive histogram and RSI(14) is 55 and rising, which aligns with the trend read rather than contradicting it. The stock is trading inside the Bollinger bands and recent volume is running above its 20-day average, lending conviction to the current move. Watch whether price can clear the 50-day moving average or, alternatively, if a drop back under the 20-day MA undermines this constructive setup.

Rating ruleFormula: the Technical Score is a weighted composite of eight inputs. Trend inputs — price vs. the 20-day (10%), 50-day (15%), and 200-day (25%) moving averages, and the 50/200 Golden or Death cross state (10%) — carry roughly 60% of the weight. Momentum inputs — MACD (12/26/9) vs. its signal line (15%) and RSI (14) state (10%) — carry 25%. Bollinger-band position (5%) and volume vs. the 20-day average (10%) round out the remainder. Each input contributes +1, 0, or -1, weights are re-normalized when a component is unavailable, and the weighted sum is thresholded at +/-0.45 to Bullish, Neutral, or Bearish.
