Technical Indicators
Quick-reference for reading the values below. Indicators combine to confirm a view — no single one is a trade signal on its own.
Trend Indicators
- SMA 20 / 50 / 200 — price above = uptrend, below = downtrend. SMA 50 crossing SMA 200 is the golden/death cross.
- EMA 12 / 26 — faster-reacting averages; 12 above 26 is short-term bullish.
- MACD — bullish when MACD > signal (green badge), bearish when below. Divergence from price often precedes reversals.
- ADX (14) — trend strength regardless of direction. <20 range, 20–25 weak trend, 25–50 trend, >50 strong trend.
- +DI / −DI — +DI > −DI favors bulls; the reverse favors bears. Read alongside ADX.
Momentum Oscillators
- RSI (14) — <30 oversold, >70 overbought. 40–60 is neutral; trending names can stay extreme.
- Stochastic %K / %D — <20 oversold, >80 overbought. %K crossing %D is an early momentum signal.
- Williams %R — inverted scale: <−80 oversold, >−20 overbought.
Oscillators work best in range-bound markets; in strong trends they give premature reversal signals.
Volume & Volatility
- Bollinger Bands — price at upper band = overbought, lower = oversold. Narrow bands (squeeze) often precede expansion.
- OBV — cumulative volume; rising OBV confirms uptrend, falling OBV confirms downtrend. Divergence from price is a warning.
- Vol SMA 20 / Vol ROC — today's volume vs. 20-day average. Positive ROC with price move = conviction.
- ATR / True Range — average daily $ move; sizing and stop-loss reference.
- HV 20 / 30 / 60 — realized (historical) volatility. Compare to IV on the options cards: IV > HV = rich premium.
Confluence matters: trend + momentum + volume agreeing carries far more weight than any single indicator. For how these feed the spread scanner score, see the algorithm docs →

EMXC Stock Analysis Report
iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ex China ETF
Executive Summary
Overall Assessment: NEUTRAL with Confidence Level: 6/10
EMXC is a passively managed emerging markets ETF (ex-China) with $25.8B in assets, offering below-median expense ratio (0.25% vs 0.59% category median). The fund is heavily concentrated in semiconductor/electronics exposure (Taiwan Semiconductor 19.7%, Samsung 8.1%, SK Hynix 5.5%), creating significant sector concentration risk despite holding 874 positions.
Key Drivers & Risks:
- Driver: Strong recent fund inflows (+$3.1B over 3 months, +12.8% of assets) suggest renewed investor interest in non-China emerging markets
- Risk: High beta (1.71) and elevated volatility (29%) amplify market drawdowns; semiconductor-heavy weighting creates cyclical exposure
- Risk: Technical deterioration with price at $91.16 below all major moving averages (SMA 20: $97.60, SMA 50: $98.28)
Investment Thesis: EMXC exhibits conflicting signals: positive news sentiment and recent fund inflows contradict weakening technicals and bearish momentum indicators. The fund's heavy semiconductor weighting provides upside exposure to AI-driven memory demand narratives (Micron earnings positive catalyst), but the current technical breakdown suggests near-term weakness requires resolution before confidence improves.
Recent News Sentiment Impact: Mixed to positive. While fund-level news is minimal, the positive sentiment around emerging markets recovery (dollar weakness, global market comeback), AI memory demand (Micron), and reduced China tariff concerns provides tailwinds. However, the April 2025 US-China tariff war headline represents dated negative news that may have already priced in.
Technical Analysis
Trend Direction
Short-term (1-4 weeks): BEARISH
- Price at $91.16 has broken below the SMA 20 ($97.60) and SMA 50 ($98.28), indicating downtrend momentum
- Current price sits just above the SMA 200 ($91.38), suggesting support near current levels but no uptrend confirmation
- The breakdown below the 20/50 day averages signals weakness despite oversold conditions
Medium-term (1-3 months): BEARISH
- Price remains below all major moving averages, establishing a downtrend structure
- EMA 12 ($95.04) and EMA 26 ($96.82) both above price, with EMA 12 below EMA 26, confirming bearish alignment
- Recent price action suggests 6-8% correction from highs near $98-100
Long-term (3-12 months): NEUTRAL
- Price at $91.16 near 200-day SMA ($91.38) suggests longer-term support zone
- Fund inflows (+$3.1B/3 months) and positive news sentiment may establish longer-term uptrend if current weakness resolves
- Insufficient data to assess 12-month trend; technical setup neutral pending breakout/breakdown
Support/Resistance Levels
| Level | Type | Relevance | Notes | |-------|------|-----------|-------| | $90.71 | Support | CRITICAL | Bollinger Band lower bound; strong support if broken suggests capitulation | | $91.16-$91.38 | Support | IMMEDIATE | Current price near 200-day SMA; major support zone | | $97.60 | Resistance | NEAR-TERM | SMA 20; recent breakdown here signals further weakness test | | $98.28 | Resistance | MEDIUM-TERM | SMA 50; reclaiming this level would reverse short-term bearish setup | | $104.48 | Resistance | MAJOR | Bollinger Band upper bound; represents ~14.5% upside to recent highs |
Momentum Signals
RSI (14): 33.08 (Neutral-Oversold Border)
- Reading suggests oversold conditions (typically <30 = oversold, 30-70 = neutral)
- At 33.08, RSI is approaching but not yet in oversold territory, indicating room for further downside
- Oversold reading would typically suggest mean-reversion bounce potential, but current RSI lacks conviction for buy signal
- Interpretation: Momentum is weak but not yet capitulated; bounce risk exists but not imminent
MACD (-1.77 / Signal: -0.80 / Histogram: -0.97)
- MACD line below signal line with negative histogram indicates BEARISH momentum
- Histogram value of -0.97 shows bearish momentum is increasing (widening gap), not contracting
- No bullish crossover evident; MACD must cross above signal line ($-0.80) to confirm momentum reversal
- Interpretation: Bearish momentum remains intact; early stages of potential downtrend
Stochastic Oscillators (%K: 11.37 / %D: 11.29)
- Extremely low readings (<15) confirm SEVERE OVERSOLD conditions
- %K and %D are near identical, suggesting stable oversold state without divergence
- Historically, such extreme readings often precede bounces, but timing is unpredictable
- Interpretation: Extreme oversold presents classic mean-reversion setup; watch for %K crossing above 20 for bounce signal
Williams %R: -96.81
- Extreme reading (most negative) indicates strongest oversold condition possible (-100 = most oversold)
- Consistent with stochastic and RSI signals; confirms momentum exhaustion
- Interpretation: Maximum oversold conditions support reversal scenario
Bollinger Bands Analysis
Current Position:
- Price at $91.16 positioned between lower band ($90.71) and middle band ($97.60)
- Band width of $14.11 represents moderate volatility compression (not in squeeze, not extreme)
- Price closer to lower band suggests downside momentum but with cushion
Signal: Neutral (with bearish lean)
- Price breakdown below middle band ($97.60) triggered bearish signal
- Oversold positioning near lower band typically precedes bounce, but no bounce evident yet
- If price breaks below lower band ($90.71), could signal capitulation followed by reversal

Recent Headlines Summary
| Headline | Date | Sentiment | Relevance to EMXC | |----------|------|-----------|-------------------| | Micron Earnings: Blowout AI Memory Demand | 2026-07-06 | POSITIVE | HIGH - Validates semiconductor demand; TSMC/Samsung/SK Hynix benefit (33.3% of fund) | | Trump's America: New Market Order Rising | 2026-02-27 | POSITIVE | MEDIUM - Suggests geopolitical shift favoring EM ex-China positioning | | Tech Earnings Drive S&P 500 Allocation | 2026-01-26 | POSITIVE | LOW - Focuses on US tech; tangential to EM semiconductor plays | | Global Markets Comeback / Dollar Weakens | 2025-10-17 | POSITIVE | HIGH - Weak dollar traditionally bullish for EM assets and exports | | Market Peak or Next Leg? | 2025-09-26 | POSITIVE | MEDIUM - Constructive tone; supports EM risk-on narrative | | Hang Seng Tariff War Bear Zone | 2025-04-10 | NEGATIVE | MEDIUM - Dated April 2025 news; US-China tensions affected EM broadly; likely already priced |
Sentiment Assessment
Aggregate News Sentiment: POSITIVE (60-70% bullish tone)
- 5 of 6 recent headlines carry positive sentiment
- Negative headline is 18+ months old, suggesting concerns have moved past acute phase
- Sentiment aligns with fund's recent inflow strength ($3.1B in 3 months)
- Key theme: Emerging markets (ex-China) positioned as alternative beneficiary of geopolitical shifts, AI memory demand, and dollar weakness
Catalyst Identification
Immediate Catalysts (1-7 days):
- Limited: Only 1% of fund's holdings report earnings within 7 days (minor impact)
- Technical bounce setup: Extreme oversold conditions (Stochastic 11.37, Williams %R -96.81) historically precede mean-reversion bounces
Near-term Catalysts (1-4 weeks):
- **Semiconductor earnings cycle

Spread Scanner GPU
Each spread is ranked by a composite score built in three stages. Full documentation →
Stage 1 — Base Score (GPU scanner)
score = P(profit) × (credit / spread_width)
P(profit) from short leg delta (1 − |delta|), penalised above 85%. Credit uses mid-price to handle illiquid chains fairly.
Stage 2 — Skew Adjustment (±25% cap)
RR and BF (30-delta) from the persisted per-symbol skew snapshot — wing strikes picked by real greeks.delta, not a moneyness proxy. Put skew boosts bull puts, penalises bear calls. High butterfly boosts iron condors. Calendars are skew-neutral.
Stage 3 — Technical Overlay (±50% cap, 5 groups)
Group 1 · Directional Bias (±0.25)
- RSI <40 bullish / >60 bearish
- MACD crossover + histogram trend
- Price vs SMA 50 & SMA 200
Group 2 · Momentum (±0.10)
- Stochastic %K <20 / >80
- Williams %R <−80 / >−20
Group 3 · Volatility (up to −0.25 / +0.15)
- Blended ATR + straddle expected-move penalty
- Bollinger Band signal (+ counter-trend penalty)
- BB width — vol contraction boost for ICs
Group 4 · IV Regime (±0.15)
- IV rank ≥ 75 → strong boost for credit spreads
- IV rank < 25 → penalty (selling cheap vol)
Group 5 · Liquidity (penalty up to −0.10)
- Min open interest across all legs
- OI < 100 → −0.10 · OI < 500 → −0.05
score = base_score × skew_multiplier × tech_multiplier
Both multipliers are shown per spread. Beta is informational only — ATR already captures realized vol. Full algorithm documentation →

Dealer Positioning
LOW γ vs HISTORY
Estimated net dealer gamma is at the 20th percentile of this name's own daily history, near the low end of its range. This describes current positioning; it is not a forecast or a trading signal.

Net dealer gamma is an estimate of the aggregate gamma held by options market makers across this name's option chain, weighted by open interest. Dealer positions aren't public, so it uses a standard simplifying assumption: dealers are treated as long the calls and short the puts that are open. Actual dealer books can differ.
Gamma percentile ranks today's estimate against this name's own daily history, from 0% (the lowest reading on record) to 100% (the highest). Raw gamma scales with how much open interest a chain carries, so it isn't comparable across names; the percentile is. The badge marks the bottom 20% as low and the top 20% as high.
Tilts run from −1 to +1 and show how lopsided the estimated dealer exposure is. GEX tilt compares call gamma with put gamma. Vanna tilt describes how the hedge would shift if implied volatility changed, and charm tilt how it would shift with the passage of time.
This card describes estimated positioning and where it sits historically. It is not a forecast of price direction or volatility and not a trading signal. Market-wide view: Dealer positioning screener.
Skew (Wing IV − ATM IV)
DTE:
Wing Δ:
Wing vs ATM
IV(put wing) − IV(ATM), in vol pointsHow much the OTM put trades above (or below) the at-the-money strike. Measures the height of the put-side tail relative to ATM — i.e. how expensive crash insurance is on this name.
- Positive (typical) — wing IV > ATM IV. Standard equity put skew: portfolios bid up crash protection, so OTM puts trade richer than ATM.
- Near zero or negative (unusual) — wing IV ≤ ATM IV. Flat or inverted put side. Common when there's no fear demand, in tightly mean-reverting names, or right after an earnings catalyst clears.
- Percentile vs own 3-yr history: high = wings rich (good time to sell wing premium); low = wings cheap (good time to buy protection).
- Not directional — high or low wings don't predict up or down moves. It's a price tag on tail insurance, not a forecast.
Risk Reversal
IV(call wing) − IV(put wing), equal delta on each sideWhich side of the smile is the market paying up for? Measures the tilt of the surface — call skew vs put skew at matched deltas.
- Negative (typical) — puts richer than calls. Standard equity behavior: hedging demand makes puts carry a premium. Most large-caps sit in the −1 to −5 vol-point range.
- Strongly negative (< −5 pts) — heavy downside hedging, elevated fear, or an upcoming catalyst (earnings, FDA, macro event). Worth flagging.
- Positive — calls richer than puts. Unusual for equities; signals bullish momentum, short-squeeze positioning, or takeover/M&A speculation.
- Near zero — symmetric surface. Market sees roughly equal up/down risk. Rare for large-caps; more common in commodities and FX.
Reading them together
Wing-vs-ATM tells you how expensive the tails are. Risk Reversal tells you which side is favored. Combined:
- High wing percentile + deeply negative RR → strong put bid; stress or major event priced in. Owning protection costs a premium; selling put premium is dangerous.
- Low wing percentile + near-zero RR → complacency; insurance cheap and balanced. Good environment to add cheap downside hedges.
- Positive RR + elevated wings → call-side fear-of-missing-out; common in squeeze setups. Upside calls expensive, downside puts not bid.

Extreme reading.
Historically these have been contrarian — on the small set of observed earnings-day cases, large negative wing-vs-ATM gaps (calls pricing much richer than puts at the same delta) preceded sharp drops in the underlying within 1-12 days. Not financial advice and the dataset is small.
Percentile is the rank of today's reading within ~3 years of this symbol's own history. High percentile = wings are rich relative to history; not a directional signal. Skew is read off the chain in real time, not from CBOE SKEW.

Short Interest & Float
Regulatory short-interest reports publish on a bi-weekly settlement cadence; short-volume is reported daily by the trade-reporting facilities. Float is derived from insider-ownership filings.
Metric definitions
- Short Interest — total shares currently sold short as of the settlement date. Lags real time by ~8 business days.
- SI % of Float — short interest / free float. The key crowding metric.
- Days to Cover — short interest / avg daily volume. How many full trading days it would take shorts to buy back. High DTC + catalyst = squeeze fuel.
- Short Vol Ratio — today's short-sale volume / total volume. Intraday selling pressure proxy (not the same as short interest).
- Free Float — shares available for public trading (total shares minus insider / restricted).
- Float % — free float / shares outstanding. <50% = tightly held, more prone to squeezes.
How to read the signals
- SI % of Float < 5% — typical, no particular signal.
- 5–15% — elevated; watch for catalysts (earnings, guidance, macro).
- 15–30% — heavily shorted; tight-float names in this range have produced notable squeezes historically.
- >30% — extreme; borrow is likely expensive and squeeze risk is material.
- Days to Cover > 5 combined with high SI% amplifies squeeze potential.
History chart
- Trend matters more than level. Rapidly rising short interest often precedes negative catalysts or heavy hedging.
- A sudden drop in SI after a rally may indicate a squeeze in progress.
Short interest is reported mid-month and end-of-month; short volume is daily.
