Method Notes
PRO- Moving averages: simple averages of daily closes over 20, 50 and 200 trading days (stored by TickZen’s daily data job).
- RSI (14): Wilder’s relative strength index on daily closes; 30 and 70 are the usual oversold and overbought lines. The “rise above 50” count uses daily RSI since Nov 7, 2024 and the close 21 trading days later.
- MACD (12, 26, 9): 12-day minus 26-day exponential average of closes; signal = 9-day exponential average of MACD; histogram = MACD − signal. Line +2.25, signal +1.94, histogram +0.31.
- Bollinger Bands (20, 2): position 74% = (price − lower) ÷ (upper − lower).
- ADX (14), +DI and −DI: Wilder’s directional movement on daily highs, lows and closes. ADX is stored by the data job; +DI and −DI are worked out from the same prices.
- Support and resistance: the 52-week and 3-month highs and lows, the latest swing points (highest high or lowest low within 5 days either side; lows within 1% form one zone) and the 20-, 50- and 200-day averages. No probabilities are implied.
- Volume: monthly bars are the average of daily volume in each calendar month (November to the 6th). Up and down days compare each close with the one before, over the last 60 trading days.
