Sustained downside pressure as price lags all major averages

RKLB is trading well below its key moving averages, with the current price of $58.60 significantly under the MA-20 at $78.08, MA-50 at $100.66, and MA-200 at $77.82, indicating pronounced selling pressure across all timeframes. The Ichimoku Kijun on D1 sits at $83.85, acting as immediate resistance. Near-term support is identified at the MA-200 ($77.82) and MA-100 ($89.41), while resistance levels cluster at the Ichimoku Kijun ($83.85) and MA-20 ($78.08).

Persistent bearish momentum as stock entrenched at weekly lows

Momentum indicators on D1 show persistent bearish strength, with MACD signaling a strong sell and ADX suggesting a firm downward trend. RSI, Stoch RSI, and CCI all flag the stock as oversold, while BBP underscores dominant seller control throughout intraday timeframes. Despite neutral signals from the Awesome Oscillator, the overall momentum aligns with the weekly decline of $5.31 (8.31%), with RKLB sitting at the very bottom of its weekly range. Weekly volatility stands at a high 17.92%, reflecting a steady and rapid pullback from the recent high. In today's session, the stock is down sharply by 8.28%, compounding the ongoing negative sentiment.

High downside risk as price anchored near annual trough

Looking ahead, the expected weekly trading range is likely between $56.00 and $64.00, which keeps the forecast realistic and centers movement just above the 52-week low of $37.61 and far beneath the $151.00 high. The probability of further decline is very high (more than 80%), with an upward reversal seen as very unlikely. Baseline scenario sees consolidation in the defined corridor. A bullish scenario would require a breakout above $64.00–$65.00 resistance, while a bearish breakdown below $56.00 could open the path to retesting lower support closer to the yearly low.

Previously it was reported that Rocket Lab's shares rebounded on the back of a major U.S. government contract, though technical headwinds continued to weigh on the stock. Investors should remain attentive to upcoming catalysts, as the prevailing scenario suggests heightened volatility around key developments.
