Bollinger Bands are upper and lower channels showing the closing price range (20 days · 2σ). Touching the upper band = overheated; touching the lower band = oversold. Ichimoku Cloud shows trend direction and strength through colored areas. Prices above the cloud indicate an uptrend; prices below indicate a downtrend. About Bollinger Bands →
Current diagnosis · 2026-07-27
Oversold zone — rebound potential
Current price $72.33 fell below the lower band ($72.37). Selling pressure excessive; worth watching for a short-term bounce. Below the Ichimoku cloud (bearish).
MACD (12 · 26 · 9) Expand ▼
An indicator that uses the difference between the short-term EMA (12) and long-term EMA (26) to identify trend reversals. When MACD rises above the Signal line, it is a buy signal (golden cross); when it falls below, it is a sell signal (death cross). About MACD →

MACD -2.063 · Signal -2.311 · Hist 0.248. Weak directional bias.
RSI(14) · Stochastics %K(14) Expand ▼
RSI measures short-term buying and selling pressure on a scale of 0–100. 30 or below = oversold (a rebound may be possible); 70 or above = overbought (a pullback may be possible). Stoch %K similarly measures short-term momentum strength. RSI · Learn more about Stochastics →
Current diagnosis · 2026-07-27
Oversold zone — rebound potential
RSI 30.0 (30 or below). Selling pressure is excessive; a short-term rebound may be worth considering. Stoch %K is also 5.9.
