How BP looks technically
BP (BP.L) is trading 15.2% above its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a longer-term uptrend. Its 50-day average crossed above its 200-day average about 196 trading days ago — a "golden cross", a bullish long-term signal. There is no clear trend right now — the price is choppy (ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 12, below the 25 that marks a real trend), though buyers have been pushing harder than sellers lately — pressure, not a trend. Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 63, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). It made a new 20-day high about 8 trading days ago. Trading volume is unusually light — only about 0% of its 30-day average.
