$212.50 · Below This Level: Plan Void

Levels run from highest to lowest price. Bars show distance from the current price on a shared scale; row spacing does not represent price distance.

Assessment

Marvell is 32% above its 200-day but 1 – 2% below the 50 and 100-day. RSI is 44, and MACD turned to sell ten sessions ago. Price is above yesterday's 222.72 – 227.17 zone; the zone moves to between the 225.45 S1 and the 232.02 pivot. The stop sits under the 213.63 low; with ATR at 6.7%, a tighter stop would get caught in noise.

Reading the Volume

At 14.6M shares, last session ran 0.71 times the 20-day average; volume is drying up under resistance.

Scenarios

Scenarios on the Price Axis

Levels come from the scenario text; only figures that match a recorded level are drawn. Distances are measured from the price above the rail.

Bull Case

Clearing the 240.34 R1 and the averages at 240.64 and 243.19 brings the 254.60 peak into play. With three levels stacked together, a close above 243.19 is enough confirmation.

Bear Case

A break of 225.45 and 222.94 would test the 217.13 S2 and the 213.63 low. The stop is at 212.50, just under the 213.63 low.

Behind the Levels

Targets
243.19 is the 50-day average, 254.60 a chart peak.
Entry Zone
The 225.45 S1 and the 232.02 pivot; the 226.52 chart low sits inside.
Stop
Just under the 213.63 chart low; about 0.8 ATR below the zone's lower edge.

What Does HOLD Mean?

Full Guide

The picture is mixed, or the trend is fine but price is far from the entry zone. There is not enough reason for a new purchase or for selling; the plan is waiting for a level to settle.

If You Don't Own It
No rush. If an entry zone is given, wait for price to reach it and for confirmation (a close that holds in the zone, above-average volume); without a zone, watch the listed supports and resistances.
If You Own It
HOLD does not mean sell: the position is held. Watch the stop if one is given, otherwise the nearest support; a break lower can turn the view to SELL.
All at Once or in Steps?
A new purchase comes after confirmation and is again spread across the zone. Waiting for a BUY view before adding avoids growing a position in a weakening stock.
The Other Views
  • BUYTrend up; entry zone, stop and targets defined.
  • SELLTrend down; no new buying, rallies are a chance to reduce.

Why the View Rarely Changes. The view is reviewed in every edition but changes only on a concrete trigger: a moving average breaking, price closing under the stop, or the entry zone being rebuilt. Indicators come from daily closes; the plan is written for readers of the daily chart, not for intraday trading.

RSI (14)

Neutral Zone

Measures how fast price has risen on a scale of 0 to 100. Above 70 means a fast run up, below 30 a fast drop; on its own it is not a buy or sell signal.

MACD (12, 26, 9)
