How Midera Food Processing looks technically
Midera Food Processing (MFP): there is no clear trend right now — the price is choppy (ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 17, below the 25 that marks a real trend). Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 49, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bullish about 2 trading days ago (its momentum flipped positive). It made a new 20-day low about 8 trading days ago. Day-to-day price swings are unusually narrow versus its own recent history — a "Bollinger squeeze" (in the tightest 1% of the past ~6 months), which often precedes a bigger move.
Trend
8
| Distance from the 200-day | not enough price history yet — needs 200 trading sessions | n/a |
|---|---|---|
| 50-day moving average | its average price over the last 50 trading days — a short-term trend line — is $43.51 | $43.51 |
| 200-day moving average | not enough price history yet — needs 200 trading sessions | n/a |
| Swing structure | each recent peak has been lower than the one before it and each dip deeper — the pattern chart-watchers call a downtrend, which describes where price has already been and not where it goes next | lower highs and lower lows |
| Last swing turn | its last significant turn was a swing low 8 calendar days ago — the swings before that are what the structure reading is measured on | 8 sessions |
| Wave structure | its recent swings can be read as a completed three-part downward correction — a pullback in the A-B-C shape Elliott-wave chartists use; the labelling fails if price closes below 38.505. It is the only labelling that fits, and it describes the swings already printed, not what comes next. | possible three-wave downward correction, complete |
| Since the 50/200 cross | not enough price history yet — needs 200 trading sessions | n/a |
| Trend strength (14-day ADX) | there is no clear trend right now — the price is choppy (ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 17, below the 25 that marks a real trend) | 16.7 |
Momentum
3
| 14-day RSI | momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 49, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30) | 48.6 |
|---|---|---|
| Position in its 14-day range | it is trading around the middle of its 14-day range ($38.51 to $43.70) — its "stochastic" reading is 54 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been climbing within that range over the last few sessions. | 53.8 |
| Since the MACD crossed zero | MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bullish about 2 trading days ago (its momentum flipped positive) | 2 sessions |

Volatility
4
| Band width vs its own 6 months | day-to-day price swings are unusually narrow versus its own recent history — a "Bollinger squeeze" (in the tightest 1% of the past ~6 months), which often precedes a bigger move | 0th percentile |
|---|---|---|
| Typical daily range | in a typical session it travels about $1.92 between its high and its low — about 4.7% of its price. That is its "average true range" over the last 14 sessions, which also counts the distance from the previous close, so a day that opens well away from yesterday counts as the large move it was | $1.92 |
| Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ) | most of its recent trading has stayed between about $38.98 and $43.04 — the "Bollinger bands", a range drawn two standard deviations either side of its 20-day average price, which widens when the stock gets more volatile and narrows when it settles | $38.98 – $41.01 – $43.04 |
| Typical daily range (% of price) | its price moves about 4.7% in a typical session — about typical for the companies we cover. This is the average gap between a session's high and low over the last 14 sessions, counting overnight moves, expressed against the current price so it can be compared with companies trading at any price | 4.7% |

Candlestick patterns
3
| Since a doji | 2 sessions ago it opened and closed at almost the same price after trading through a wider range — a "doji", the classic picture of buyers and sellers finishing the session level | 2 sessions ago |
|---|---|---|
| Since a hammer | 9 sessions ago, after a stretch of decline, it sold off hard during the session and then closed back near its high — a "hammer", the long lower wick showing the drop was bought back before the close | 9 sessions ago |
| Since a bullish engulfing | 8 sessions ago it opened below the previous session's close and finished above that session's open — a "bullish engulfing" pair, where one up day more than undid the down day before it | 8 sessions ago |
Price gaps
2
| Gap at the open | it opened on 2026-10-21 0.3% above the previous session's close — an overnight gap, the part of the move that happened while the market was shut, and traded back through that level before the close | +0.3% |
|---|---|---|
| Gap filled | a 2.5% gap up opened on 2026-09-17 has been "filled" 23 sessions ago — price traded back through the level the gap left behind, and it took 1 session to close | 23 sessions ago |
Price streaks
1
| Closing streak | it closed lower in its latest session, after a session that did not close lower — a single down day rather than a run | 1 session down |

Volume-weighted price
2
| Vs this year’s average price paid | the price is 5% below the average price paid since 2026-07-07, so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $43.32 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 76 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -4.7% |
|---|---|---|
| Vs the average paid since it last reported | the price is 6% below the average price paid since it last reported on 2026-08-13 (its 8-K), so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $44.10 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 49 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -6.3% |
Wave structure
Its recent swings can be read as a three-part downward correction — the A-B-C shape chartists use for a pullback — now complete.
This labelling fails — stops being a possible reading at all — if it closes below $38.51.
It is the only labelling that fits these swings, though its proportions are not the textbook ones.
This labelling was already in place when we began recording count changes on 2026-10-21, so how long it has stood is not something we can say yet.

Change over time is not available yet: it needs two readings of the same reporting period at least 30 days apart, and we have been recording these estimates since 2026-08-04. An estimate for a DIFFERENT quarter is not a revision, so a reading from before the last report is never compared with one after it.
The consensus estimate for the next reporting period, and how it has moved between readings of that SAME period. A change is measured only between readings estimating one period — when a company reports, the consensus moves to the next quarter and the two numbers are not comparable. Informational only, not a forecast and not advice.

Only open-market purchases (SEC code P) and sales (code S) are counted here. Option exercises, vesting/awards, gifts, and shares withheld for taxes are excluded — they are compensation or mechanical, not open-market conviction.
