Compound price chart with signals
Today's Compound signal explained
Compound is currently on a daily BUY signal: the Supertrend (10, 3) indicator flipped bullish 5 days ago and the price ($19.50) is trading above its 200-day simple moving average ($18.77). Both the short-term trend and the long-term regime filter agree, which is the only condition under which this system issues a daily buy.
The weekly swing signal is SELL (flat). Compound would need a daily close above its 20-day high of $20.73 to trigger a new breakout entry; this rule has been out of the market for 6 days.
The monthly position signal is BUY. Compound cleared its 55-day closing high 19 days ago. The exit for this slower rule is a close below the 20-day low, now at $16.07.
The yearly regime is CASH: either the price is below its 200-day moving average or that average is still falling. Long-term accumulation rules stay defensive until both conditions turn positive.
Momentum check: the 14-day RSI is at 57.6, MACD is above its signal line, and ADX at 33.0 indicates a strong trend. Volume is 0.62× its 20-day average. Over the last 7, 30 and 90 days Compound has moved +7.0%, +19.3% and +19.9% respectively; it trades -58.5% from its 52-week high and +28.4% above its 52-week low.
