Trend Range-bound / consolidating

PCAR (PCAR) is trading at $130.75. Over the last 125 sessions the trend is **flat** with a +3.3% move.

Price is -5.4% from the 6-month high and +19.6% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~26%.

Price is below the 15-day MA ($132.99, -1.7%) and above the 50-day SMA ($125.24).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $130.75, upper $137.73, middle $131.97, lower $126.22. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 8.7% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Below 50

RSI(14) is 42.9. Momentum has faded; the bullish case needs rebuilding.

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 $1.80, signal $2.58, histogram -0.772.

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 1.20) 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 distributing

The A/D line is falling and well off highs. If smart money were exiting you would expect lower highs and volume spikes on down days — distribution pressure is building.

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 ($130.75) is +7.2% above the anchored VWAP ($122.00). 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 / 3 support levels

Current price $130.75. Resistance above: $133.71, $136.76, $139.24. Support below: $129.78, $126.22, $124.85.

Watch $133.71 as the first upside level to clear, and $129.78 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
