2628.HK, near 27.5, registers a sell stance as price trades below its short, medium and long moving averages, undercutting broader support. Momentum indicators are negative—CCI well below zero and MACD in negative territory—while RSI and money flow are muted; ADX around 15 signals a lack of a strong trend. OBV shows net outflows and ATR reflects moderate intraday movement, and both classic and Fibonacci pivots sit above the current price. Technical takeaway: overall bias remains Sell.
