TECHNICAL RATING
TECHNICAL SCORE
88 / 100
Summary
Price is trading above the 20-day (389.21), 50-day (387.62) and 200-day (357.77) moving averages, and a Golden cross is in place with the 50-day above the 200-day; the shares sit about 7.4% above the 20-day, 7.9% above the 50-day and 16.9% above the 200-day. Momentum is confirming the trend: MACD is above its signal line and the histogram is positive, while RSI(14) at 66.1 remains in constructive territory though it has turned down slightly. The price sits inside the Bollinger bands, and current volume is running below its 20-day average, which reduces conviction for any near-term breakout. Watch for a pickup in volume or a renewed RSI rise; a breach back toward the 20-day MA would change the setup materially.

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.
