Trend Strong uptrend in force

PTC (PTC) is trading at $150.97. Over the last 125 sessions the trend is **up** with a -1.4% move.

Price is -8.1% from the 6-month high and +34.4% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~44%.

Price is above the 15-day MA ($141.96, +6.4%) and above the 50-day SMA ($127.70).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $150.97, upper $161.94, middle $135.98, lower $110.02. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 38.2% of price — expanded (high volatility). Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Overbought

RSI(14) is 77.0. Strong but not yet extreme — approaching the 80 line.

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

MACD (12, 26, 9) Bullish — fast line above signal

MACD (12, 26, 9): line $7.32, signal $5.66, histogram +1.657.

The fast line is above the signal line and the histogram is positive — a bullish configuration. Momentum is expanding.

Volume Analysis Balanced volume

Up-day and down-day volume are roughly even (ratio 1.01) 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 accumulating

The Accumulation/Distribution line is rising and sitting well off highs. Institutions are not aggressively distributing — large funds still appear net long.

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 ($150.97) is +11.4% above the anchored VWAP ($135.50). 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 2 resistance / 3 support levels

Current price $150.97. Resistance above: $154.03, $161.94. Support below: $148.70, $139.50, $135.98.

Watch $154.03 as the first upside level to clear, and $148.70 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
