Mixed momentum and overbought signals as buyers test ceiling

On the technical front, the price of NG sits above the MA-20 and MA-50 but remains under the MA-200 level on the daily chart. The Ichimoku Kijun line at GBX1,201 is acting as immediate support. Bullish momentum is reflected in MACD (Buy), RSI at 56.41 (Buy), CCI (Buy), and the Awesome Oscillator (Buy), while the ADX and Stochastic RSI are neutral. Bull/Bear Power is in overbought territory, suggesting strong buying activity but also potential for near-term exhaustion. The day featured a positive opening gap and moderate volatility, with some divergence between mixed momentum readings indicating choppy intraday conditions.

High breakout odds as volatility narrows risk corridor

Looking ahead, NG is projected to trade within a range of GBX1,192 to GBX1,223 in the near term, based on typical volatility around current price levels. The probability of an upward breakout is considered very high, while downside risk appears minimal for now. The baseline scenario envisions sideways movement within this corridor, but a break above resistance could prompt further gains. Conversely, a fall below support would increase the risk of accelerated declines.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that National Grid (NG) is technically positioned above short- and medium-term averages but still lags below its long-term trend. He sees signs of bullish momentum in the indicators, yet remains cautious due to mixed momentum signals and the proximity to overbought territory. Kharitonov advises close monitoring of price action within the GBX1,192 to GBX1,223 range, as breakout or breakdown risk remains present. "Base case remains sideways as long as the price stays under the long-term average — I stay defensive unless GBX1,223 is broken with conviction."

Earlier, analysts noted that National Grid was demonstrating short- to medium-term technical strength, but continued to face longer-term resistance and the possibility of price consolidation. Current technical signals reinforce this view, with mixed momentum readings suggesting that traders should monitor the GBX1,201 support level for signs of either sustained stability or a bearish shift should it fail.
