Trend Downtrend in force

HRL (HRL) is trading at $24.47. Over the last 125 sessions the trend is **down** with a +4.4% move.

Price is -7.7% from the 6-month high and +24.0% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~20%.

Bollinger Bands Near the lower band — weakness

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $24.47, upper $25.99, middle $25.10, lower $24.20. Price is near the lower band — weakness.

Bandwidth is 7.1% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Weakening

RSI(14) is 24.4. Nearing the 30 oversold line.

Generally: above 70 = overheated, above 50 = bullish trend, below 50 = bearish trend, below 30 = oversold.

MACD (12, 26, 9) Bearish — momentum slowing

MACD (12, 26, 9): line $-0.08, signal $0.07, histogram -0.152.

The fast line has crossed below the signal line and the histogram is negative. Price may still be rising overall, but momentum is weakening — often seen before a correction, a sideways consolidation, or a final push higher.

Volume Analysis Balanced volume

Up-day and down-day volume are roughly even (ratio 0.92) over the recent 19 sessions — no strong conviction either way.

Rule of thumb: price up on high volume = accumulation; price down on high volume = distribution. Low-volume pullbacks after a rally are usually profit-taking, not panic.

Smart Money (A/D) Smart money on hold

The A/D line slope is flat and the line is well off highs — institutions are neither aggressively accumulating nor distributing.

A/D combines price position within the day's range with volume: rising = net buying pressure, falling = net selling pressure. It often leads price at turning points.

Anchored VWAP Above anchored VWAP — period buyers in profit

Price ($24.47) is +5.6% above the anchored VWAP ($23.18). Buyers who entered at the period's volume-weighted average are in profit and less likely to panic-sell.

Anchored VWAP is the volume-weighted average from the start of the scraped series — a proxy for the period's average institutional cost basis.

Key Levels 3 resistance / 2 support levels

Current price $24.47. Resistance above: $24.92, $25.28, $25.99. Support below: $24.16, $23.92.

Watch $24.92 as the first upside level to clear, and $24.16 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
