Trend Downtrend in force

NOC (NOC) is trading at $478.00. Over the last 127 sessions the trend is **down** with a -31.3% move.

Price is -31.3% from the 6-month high and 0.0% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~21%.

Price is below the 15-day MA ($507.72, -5.9%) and below the 50-day SMA ($536.84).

Bollinger Bands Near the lower band — weakness

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $478.00, upper $544.87, middle $510.76, lower $476.65. Price is near the lower band — weakness.

Bandwidth is 13.4% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Oversold

RSI(14) is 11.7. A bounce is common from these levels but not guaranteed.

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 $-14.99, signal $-11.51, histogram -3.484.

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 0.91) 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 Below anchored VWAP — period buyers underwater

Price ($478.00) is -12.7% below the anchored VWAP ($547.40). Period buyers are underwater — overhead supply tends to cap rallies.

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 / 1 support levels

Current price $478.00. Resistance above: $523.01, $529.00, $536.62. Support below: $476.65.

Watch $523.01 as the first upside level to clear, and $476.65 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.

Resistance $523.01
