Trend Downtrend in force

Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ) is trading at $45.92. Over the last 127 sessions the trend is **down** with a -6.6% move.

Price is -10.8% from the 6-month high and +9.4% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~20%.

Price is below the 15-day MA ($47.27, -2.9%) and below the 50-day SMA ($48.31).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $45.92, upper $51.91, middle $48.05, lower $44.19. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 16.1% of price — expanded (high volatility). Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Oversold

RSI(14) is 14.7. 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 $-0.83, signal $-0.52, histogram -0.309.

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 1.06) 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 ($45.92) is -1.2% below the anchored VWAP ($46.50). 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 $45.92. Resistance above: $46.20, $47.08, $49.90. Support below: $45.73, $44.19.

Watch $46.20 as the first upside level to clear, and $45.73 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
