Trend Downtrend in force
SLB (SLB) is trading at $48.74. Over the last 127 sessions the trend is **down** with a -2.1% move.
Price is -18.9% from the 6-month high and +8.1% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~36%.
Price is below the 15-day MA ($50.98, -4.4%) and below the 50-day SMA ($52.84).
Bollinger Bands Near the lower band — weakness
Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $48.74, upper $57.49, middle $52.21, lower $46.93. Price is near the lower band — weakness.
Bandwidth is 20.2% of price — expanded (high volatility). Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.
RSI (14) Oversold
RSI(14) is 14.5. 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 $-1.38, signal $-0.87, histogram -0.504.
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 0.81) 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 Below anchored VWAP — period buyers underwater
Price ($48.74) is -7.0% below the anchored VWAP ($52.42). 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 $48.74. Resistance above: $48.86, $51.78, $52.44. Support below: $46.93.
Watch $48.86 as the first upside level to clear, and $46.93 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
