Highlights
- Quant is trading below key short- and medium-term moving averages, showing sustained intraday and multi-day selling pressure.

Short-term selling outweighs neutral oscillators amid resistance
On the hourly chart, QNT trades beneath the MA-20 at $181.98 and MA-50 at $190.22, affirming persistent selling pressure across both short- and medium-term timeframes. The price action is still well above the daily MA-200 at $100.98, which defines a supporting long-term profile, while Ichimoku Kijun resistance is established at $184.57. Notably, momentum readings are decisively negative: MACD signals a strong sell and ADX is in sell mode, with Bull/Bear Power’s negative value emphasizing intraday seller control. However, RSI, Stoch RSI, and CCI all remain in their neutral zones, and the Awesome Oscillator is also neutral, highlighting a divergence between strong downtrend momentum and a lack of confirmation from oscillators.
Range-bound outlook as volatility narrows directional probabilities
In the next 2–3 trading days, QNT is expected to consolidate within a volatility band from $170.71 to $185.45. The probability for further downside is high, estimated above 80%, while the likelihood of a sustained upward move is below 20%. The baseline scenario anticipates continued range-bound trading unless a decisive break occurs above $185.45 or below $170.71, which would signal the next directional move.
Earlier, analysts noted that Quant was experiencing short- and medium-term selling pressure while maintaining longer-term structural support. The current analysis strengthens this view, with negative momentum intensifying and traders now advised to monitor the $170.71–$185.45 range for signs of a decisive breakout or further downside risk.
