Trend Downtrend in force

VRSK (VRSK) is trading at $182.97. Over the last 125 sessions the trend is **down** with a +3.2% move.

Price is -15.1% from the 6-month high and +16.7% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~42%.

Price is below the 15-day MA ($193.00, -5.2%) and below the 50-day SMA ($187.89).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $182.97, upper $212.81, middle $193.94, lower $175.07. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 19.5% of price — expanded (high volatility). Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Weakening

RSI(14) is 28.9. 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 $-2.00, signal $0.23, histogram -2.239.

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 0.97) 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 ($182.97) is -1.1% below the anchored VWAP ($185.04). 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 / 2 support levels

Current price $182.97. Resistance above: $188.18, $194.79, $196.84. Support below: $177.18, $175.07.

Watch $188.18 as the first upside level to clear, and $177.18 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
