Technical Analysis (CGNX)
Trend Identification
EMA
Exponential Moving Average
Current price (40.77) is above both Short MA (34.12) and Long MA (31.74). This indicates strong bullish momentum. Short MA (34.12) is above Long MA (31.74), a bullish crossover ('Golden Cross' if it's a significant period). This indicates an upward trend. All MAs are in bullish order (Price > Short MA > Long MA > Very Long MA 30.24). This is a strong bullish alignment. Consider long positions. Use the MAs as dynamic support levels.
MACD
Moving Average Convergence Divergence
MACD line is above the Signal line (bullish crossover). This indicates upward momentum. Histogram (0.3100) is positive and expanding, confirming bullish momentum. Both MACD and Signal lines are above the zero line, reinforcing bullish momentum (bullish territory). This is a strong buy signal. Consider long positions.
ADX
Average Directional Index
ADX (31.17) indicates a strong trend is present. +DI (51.06) is above -DI (11.65), suggesting a bullish directional bias. This combination points to a strong upward trend. Consider taking long positions, as the strong upward trend is confirmed.
Momentum Measurement
RSI (2025-09-13)
Relative Strength Index
RSI (79.61) is in the overbought zone. This suggests the asset may be due for a price correction or a trend reversal downwards. Consider profit-taking or short-selling opportunities cautiously.
OBV (2025-09-13)
On-Balance Volume
OBV (3062917.00) is rising, indicating buying pressure and accumulation. Price is rising and OBV is rising. This is bullish confirmation, indicating buying pressure supports the price increase. Consider holding long positions or initiating new ones. Volume is supporting the trend.
Stochastic (2025-09-13)
Stochastic Oscillator
Stochastics (%K: 51.70, %D: 53.98) are in the neutral zone (between 20 and 80). A bearish crossover (%K below %D) is observed, potentially signaling a downward trend reversal or continuation. Stronger signal if this occurs above 50.
CCI (2025-09-13)
Commodity Channel Index
CCI (456.34) is above +100. This suggests a strong upward momentum and an overbought condition. Consider profit-taking or looking for short entries cautiously. Confirm with price action; if price is making higher highs, momentum is strong. Look for pullbacks to enter long.
Volatility Measurement
ATR (2025-09-13)
Average True Range
Current ATR is 1.4300. ATR indicates significantly high volatility. This may suggest strong breakouts, panics, or trend capitulation. High volatility can lead to wider stop-loss placements and larger profit targets, but also higher risk. The current price movement is exceptionally large, even for high volatility. Exercise extreme caution. Consider using ATR to set dynamic stop-loss levels (e.g., 2 * ATR below entry for long positions).

Volatility Bands
Current price (40.77) is above the Upper Bollinger Band (37.48). This often indicates an overextended move and a potential reversal downwards, or strong upward momentum ('walking the band').

Consider shorting or taking profit on long positions, but confirm with other indicators.
