TECHNICAL RATING
TECHNICAL SCORE
Bullish
79 / 100
Summary
Price sits modestly above its key moving averages: roughly 4.5% above the 20-day, about 6.0% above the 50-day, and about 6.1% above the 200-day, with a recent Golden cross on the 50/200. Momentum is confirming that trend: MACD is above its signal line and the histogram is positive, while RSI at 57 is in neutral constructive territory though it has been drifting lower. The stock is trading inside the Bollinger bands and recent volume has been a touch below its 20-day norm, which reduces conviction behind the move. The clearest change that would alter the setup is a return of buying volume alongside a sustained push higher or, conversely, a renewed RSI decline below key support.

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.
