A stock trading above a moving average on an upward sloping trend may indicate an uptrend, whereas a stock dipping below on a downward slope may indicate a downtrend.

Finally, we can take a look at the Williams Percent Range. This indicator measures momentum and whether a stock is oversold or overbought. It is determined by taking the highs and lows over a certain period of time and measuring them against the closing stock price. Reliq’s current Williams Percent Range sits at -5.32. A reading of 0 to -20 would indicate an overbought stock, whereas a range of -80 to -100 would indicate an oversold stock.
