Technical picture
The 14-day RSI is 35. Momentum is soft: below the neutral 50 line, but not yet oversold.
MACD is below its signal line, so short-term momentum is pointing down.
The price has slipped below its 50-day moving average but is still above the 200-day: a pullback inside a longer-term uptrend.
Volume is 1.9x its 20-day average, so the latest move has real participation behind it.
Trend structure and money flow
Market structure shows a bullish break of structure (BOS): price broke a recent swing high in the direction of the trend, which usually signals trend continuation.
The most recent swing high is $151.80 and the swing low is $115.42; traders often treat these as resistance and support.
Fundamentals
The PEG ratio is 1.21, which looks reasonably priced for its growth.
The company reports a profit margin of 38.4% and revenue growth of +37.7%.
In its latest quarter it earned $1.02 per share, which beat the $0.89 analysts expected, with revenue +37.7% year over year.
