Technical Indicators

1 Buy1 Neutral6 Sell
LUV’s technicals skew bearish: short-term momentum and MACD are negative while price sits below its key short- and medium-term moving averages as well as the longer-term averages, indicating downward pressure across timeframes. Trend strength is weak according to ADX and volatility is moderate, which has allowed declines without extreme swings, and volume measures do not support a durable reversal. Although one oscillator shows a short-term buy signal, the broader set of moving averages and momentum metrics favors the downside. Technical takeaway: Sell.
