Tape read
COST tape is bearish on the 30D read.
COST is near the long-term trend; momentum is momentum soft. Use the four headline checks first, then open advanced detail only when you need the specialist indicator matrix.

Divergence alert
COST has no major trend-momentum divergence.
Trend and momentum inputs are close enough that the cleaner read is the headline tape score, not a special divergence warning.

Scoring model
Active indicators drive COST's tape score
The headline tape cards above are calculated from rows that returned usable values. Each horizon uses its own lookback profile, and momentum-family weights are capped so MACD cannot drown out trend, volatility, and flow.
Active rows
9/54
Technical data + history fallback
Horizon-aware
Fast, swing, and long-term profiles
Short windows lean on fast momentum; 6M and 1Y reads use slower trend and averaged momentum proxies.
Confirmed by flow
VWAP, MFI, OBV and A/D caps
Volume and money-flow inputs validate momentum while family caps prevent a single indicator cluster from owning the score.

MACD crossing above the signal line usually marks improving momentum; crossing below usually marks fading momentum. TECHi does not treat either as a standalone trade signal.

Technical methodology
COST technical setup without black-box chart widgets.
This page separates trend, momentum, volatility, volume, and cycle indicators. The horizon score is a weighted read-through from available technical indicator rows, with trend weights scaled by recent volatility, volume rows used as confirmation, and longer horizons acting as a directional filter on short-term tape moves. It is not a price target or standalone trade recommendation.
Frequently asked
Common questions.
How are COST technical indicators used inside TECHi’s Forward model?
SMA, RSI, and MACD are not displayed for their own sake. They are distilled into explicit trend, momentum, and spread signals that become inputs to Forward composite scores and short-horizon conviction — transparent and auditable, not a black-box widget.
What does COST's RSI actually tell me on TECHi?
TECHi maps RSI into three practical bands: >70 overbought, <30 oversold, 45-65 balanced momentum. These labels sit next to the actual series so you can see whether momentum is accelerating, fading, or neutral — direct fuel for the Forward quant layer.
Why does TECHi separate trend, momentum, and signal-spread instead of just showing one MACD or RSI line?
A single oscillator hides conflicts. TECHi shows the three layers independently so you can spot when price is in an uptrend but momentum is rolling over — exactly the kind of divergence the Forward model uses to temper or strengthen short-horizon signals.
Can I trade COST using only the Technicals page?
No single page is a trading system. The Technicals signals are one verified layer. Cross-reference with TECHi Signal, options surface, earnings dates, and news sentiment on the rest of the COST quote stack before making decisions.
