SMAs overview
Supports and resistances
The current resistance levels are:
The current support levels are:
Bollinger bands
When the price moves out of the band (above the upper line or below the lower line) it shows that the stock is maintaining a very strong momentum and therefore can reverse the trend to the average. In this case, the price is above the upper band, and that should mean a possible short-term corrective movement (at least) until it is below the band
Relative strength index
When the moves for so long below 70 and above 30, without indication of overbought and oversold, the indicator turns out to be of little use, and we find ourselves in one of these cases.
