Technical Analysis (WST)
Trend Identification
EMA
Exponential Moving Average
Current price (222.26) is above both Short MA (221.23) and Long MA (214.22). This indicates strong bullish momentum. Short MA (221.23) is above Long MA (214.22), a bullish crossover ('Golden Cross' if it's a significant period). This indicates an upward trend. MAs (221.23, 214.22, 220.37) show mixed alignment, suggesting market indecision or range-bound activity. Consider long positions. Use the MAs as dynamic support levels.
MACD
Moving Average Convergence Divergence
MACD line is below the Signal line (bearish crossover). This indicates downward momentum. Histogram (-0.0500) is negative and expanding, confirming bearish momentum. Both MACD and Signal lines are above the zero line, reinforcing bullish momentum (bullish territory). A bearish crossover above the zero line can indicate a reversal from a prior uptrend. Consider this as a potential early sell signal.
ADX
Average Directional Index
ADX (12.18) indicates a weak or non-existent trend (ranging market). +DI (22.92) is above -DI (16.67), suggesting a bullish directional bias. Avoid trend-following strategies. Consider range-bound or reversal strategies, or wait for a clearer trend to develop.

RSI (55.47) is in the bullish territory, but not yet overbought. This indicates upward momentum. Monitor for continuation or signs of weakness.
OBV (2025-07-05)
On-Balance Volume
