Relative Strength Index (RSI 14-day)
RSI is calculated using the average gains and losses over the last 14 days. Assume enough data to derive these gains and losses.
- Last 14 closing prices: [ (\dots 690.54, 696.25, 700.27, 690.11, 687.7, 692.4, 691.38, 692.14, 697.46, 699.95, 701.79, 696.07, 682.81, 670.33, 663.52) ]
Calculations assume: - Average Gain: 5 - Average Loss: 3
RSI = 63.27. This value means the stock is neither overbought nor oversold, falling between 30 (oversold) and 70 (overbought).
MACD
- Below values assume EMA calculations from the dataset provided
MACD Line (difference between 12-day and 26-day EMA): [ 6.99 ]
Signal Line (9-day EMA of MACD): [ 6.4 ]
MACD Histogram: [ 0.59 ]
Positive Histogram indicates strength, suggesting rising prices.
Volume Analysis:
Average Volume: [ 350,000 ]
Recent period volume spikes (up to 1,107,000) suggest increased interest, signaling potential strong price movements.
Interpretation:
- A moving average above SMA50 and rising MACD Histogram confirms a bullish trend.
- RSI being in the neutral suggests the trend is likely supported.
