The price is above both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, the classic picture of an uptrend.
Volume is only 0.5x its 20-day average; light trading makes the latest move less convincing.

Market structure: ranging / no clear structure.
The most recent swing high is $299.54 and the swing low is $223.22; traders often treat these as resistance and support.
