Technical picture
The 14-day RSI is 52, close to the neutral 50 line, so momentum is balanced.
MACD is above its signal line, a sign that short-term momentum is turning up.
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 only 0.6x its 20-day average; light trading makes the latest move less convincing.
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 $175.29 and the swing low is $124.96; traders often treat these as resistance and support.
Fundamentals
The PEG ratio is 1.89, which looks reasonably priced for its growth.
The company reports a profit margin of 8.4% and revenue growth of +9.4%.
In its latest quarter it earned $2.77 per share, which beat the $2.45 analysts expected, with revenue +9.4% year over year.
