Trend Range-bound / consolidating

YUM (YUM) is trading at $149.52. Over the last 125 sessions the trend is **flat** with a -7.2% move.

Price is -11.1% from the 6-month high and +3.3% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~30%.

Price is on the 15-day MA ($150.20) and below the 50-day SMA ($153.42).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $149.52, upper $155.26, middle $149.57, lower $143.87. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 7.6% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Healthy pullback

RSI(14) is 51.3. Above 50 — bullish momentum intact, no exhaustion.

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 $-1.37, signal $-1.46, histogram +0.092.

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 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 ($149.52) is -3.9% below the anchored VWAP ($155.61). 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 / 3 support levels

Current price $149.52. Resistance above: $150.09, $153.11, $155.26. Support below: $146.71, $144.64, $143.00.

Watch $150.09 as the first upside level to clear, and $146.71 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
