Bearish structure holds as price tests oversold support zone

Price is sitting right at support from the weekly low at $36. Shares of Leonardo DRS remain in a bearish daily structure, trading below the MA-20, MA-50, and MA-200. The RSI is at 25.8, indicating oversold conditions and limiting further downside potential.

Downside outweighs upside as $36 support comes under pressure

To gauge whether the revenue event is being priced in, traders should focus on how shares behave around $36 support. The price has tested this weekly low without breaking through it. From here, upside probability is less than 20% and downside probability is more than 80%, with an expected trading range of $35.45 to $36.68 for the coming trading week. A close above $37.38 would confirm buyers are regaining control, while a move below $36 would suggest the level is being lost. On the weekly chart the longer-term picture stays negative.

Earlier, analysts noted that despite positive contract announcements, Leonardo DRS continued to exhibit a bearish technical structure with limited prospects for near-term upside. The most recent contract win and ongoing technical weakness reinforce the prevailing negative outlook, making the $36 support level essential to monitor for any potential changes in trend direction.
