Near-term momentum strengthens as price tests long-term resistance

EQT is trading at $53.71, above the MA-20 ($51.11) and MA-50 ($53.06) but well below the MA-200 ($56.47), signaling constructive short- to medium-term momentum with lingering long-term resistance overhead. The Ichimoku Kijun on D1 stands at $51.25, currently acting as immediate support just beneath the market; near-term support is clustered around this Kijun and MA-20 zone ($51.11–$51.25), with key support at MA-100 ($56.99); near-term resistance is set by MA-50 ($53.06), and key resistance remains at MA-200 ($56.47).

Mixed momentum signals as price consolidates near weekly highs

Momentum readings are mixed, with the MACD on D1 flashing a strong sell bias, while ADX on D1 suggests moderate bullish strength. RSI and CCI both point to overbought conditions, amplified by Stoch RSI deep in the overbought zone (89.40), while BBP indicates intraday buyer dominance. Oscillator signals diverge, with the Awesome Oscillator neutral on the trend. EQT is trading at $53.71, up from $49.56 a week ago, reflecting an 8.29% gain over the past week. The price sits at the top of the weekly range, with volatility amplitude at 12.29%, indicating a robust move off last week’s lows and consolidation near resistance.

Pullback risk rises as resistance caps further upside

For the coming week, the expected range is $53.70–$54.81, tightly consolidating just under recent highs and well above the 52-week low ($47.97) but remaining distant from the 52-week peak ($68.19). The probability of a price increase is very low (less than 20%), signaling a higher likelihood of a pullback or consolidation instead of further upside. Baseline scenario: price fluctuates between $53.70 and $54.81, consolidating just beneath key resistance. Bullish case: a break above $54.81 opens short-term upside, but topping signs are likely. Bearish case: a drop through $53.70 would see sellers retest the $51.25–$51.11 support cluster. The overall setup suggests fading momentum at resistance, with a bias toward sideways-to-lower action in the short term.

Previously it was reported that EQT’s rally faced significant resistance as technical indicators reflected prevailing bearish momentum despite recent gains. As evolving market dynamics continue to shape sentiment, investors should closely monitor shifts in momentum and be prepared for renewed volatility in the near term.
