Quick-reference for reading the values below. Indicators combine to confirm a view — no single one is a trade signal on its own.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 →

Data Summary
JQUA Stock Analysis Report
JPMorgan U.S. Quality Factor ETF
Executive Summary
Overall Assessment: BULLISH | Confidence: 7/10
JQUA is a passively managed quality factor ETF holding 310 U.S. equities with a defensive risk profile (beta 0.85) and institutional-grade cost efficiency (0.12% expense ratio). The fund exhibits technically sound positioning with price above all key moving averages, bullish MACD momentum, and positive net fund inflows, though elevated valuations and overbought momentum readings warrant caution near-term.
Key Drivers:
- Strong technical setup with price $75.73 trading 1.9% above SMA20 ($74.50) and 10.4% above SMA200 ($68.55)
- Bullish MACD histogram (0.26) with positive crossover signal
- Consistent inflows (+$97M over 3 months, +1.2% of assets)
- Low-cost structure outperforming 98% of category peers
Primary Risks:
- Stochastic oscillators deeply overbought (%K: 89.70, %D: 86.64) suggest pullback risk
- Holdings trading +3.4% above fair value; weighted P/E of 25.2 indicates premium valuation
- ADX (15.02) signals weak trend strength; range-bound regime limits upside conviction
- IV premium (+37.8% vs HV30) prices significant movement; current IV rank (22.6%) is low
Investment Thesis: JQUA presents a quality-biased exposure to large-cap U.S. equities positioned above long-term support, though near-term consolidation is likely given overbought momentum. Recent fund inflows suggest institutional accumulation, but valuation headwinds and weak trend strength require disciplined position management.
Recent News Sentiment Impact: News headlines (dated May 2024 to September 2026) reflect broad ETF market commentary rather than fund-specific catalysts. Recent mentions emphasize quality factors during rate uncertainty and AI sector risks—themes aligning with JQUA's holdings concentration in mega-cap tech (MSFT, AAPL, NVDA, AMD, META comprise 10.5% of portfolio). Positive sentiment on quality ETFs amid inflation persistence provides tailwind, though these are general market narratives, not JQUA-specific drivers.
Technical Analysis
Trend Direction
Short-term (1-4 weeks): NEUTRAL TO SLIGHTLY BULLISH
- Price $75.73 sits 1.9% above SMA20 ($74.50) and 1.8% above SMA50 ($74.43)
- EMA12 ($75.02) above EMA26 ($74.60) confirms intra-trend alignment
- However, ADX (15.02) in "range" regime indicates weak directional conviction
- Stochastic readings (%K: 89.70) at extremes suggest imminent mean reversion or consolidation
Medium-term (1-3 months): BULLISH
- Price 10.4% above SMA200 ($68.55) establishes solid medium-term uptrend
- RSI (63.58) in neutral zone (30-70), avoiding overbought extremes despite momentum signals
- MACD bullish crossover with positive histogram (0.42 MACD vs 0.16 signal) = +0.26 momentum
- 75% of fund holdings above 200-day average supports broad-based strength
Long-term (3-12 months): BULLISH
- Sustained position above SMA200 across entire portfolio
- Beta 0.85 provides defensive characteristics during market stress
- Positive alpha (0.06) suggests outperformance vs market on risk-adjusted basis
Support/Resistance Levels
| Level | Type | Interpretation | |-------|------|-----------------| | $75.97 | Resistance | Bollinger Bands upper band; minor reversal point | | $75.73 | Current | Trading near daily high; limited upside room | | $74.50 | Support | SMA20; primary short-term support | | $74.43 | Support | SMA50; medium-term pivot | | $73.02 | Support | Bollinger Bands lower band; technical floor | | $68.55 | Major Support | SMA200; critical long-term support |
Critical Zone: $73.02–$74.50 represents 2% pullback zone where institutional accumulation likely resumes. Break below $73.02 would signal trend deterioration.
Momentum Signals
RSI (14): 63.58 — NEUTRAL (approaching overbought threshold of 70)
- Reading between 50-70 indicates sustained bullish pressure without extreme overbought conditions
- Room to push higher before triggering mean-reversion sell signal
- Historically consistent with continuation moves in trending markets
MACD: BULLISH CROSSOVER CONFIRMED
- MACD (0.42) > Signal Line (0.16) with positive histogram (0.26)
- Indicates fresh upside momentum generation
- Crossover provides confidence for continued strength above $74.50 support
Stochastic (%K: 89.70, %D: 86.64): EXTREME OVERBOUGHT — NEAR-TERM PULLBACK WARNING
- Both lines in oversold territory (>80) signal imminent mean reversion
- Historically, extreme readings precede 1-4% corrective pullbacks before resuming trend
- Time frame: typically 3-10 trading days for reversion
Williams %R (-13.10): OVERBOUGHT CONFIRMATION
- Deeply negative reading (-100 to 0 scale) confirms overbought extremes
- Aligns with Stochastic warning; suggests immediate pullback risk
Bollinger Bands: NEUTRAL
- Price trading slightly above middle band ($74.50); band width 3.95 indicates moderate volatility
- Not touching upper band ($75.97)—no squeeze breakout signal detected
- Positioning suggests normal volatility regime, not compressed (potential breakout) or expanded (volatility spike)
Volume Analysis
Volume Trends: BULLISH CONFIRMATION
- Volume SMA20: 619,086 shares (baseline)
- Volume Rate of Change: +75.72% — indicates significantly elevated volume relative to 20-day average
- Interpretation: Recent price moves accompanied by above-average institutional participation
On-Balance Volume (OBV): 17,519,592 — ACCUMULATION SIGNAL
- OBV trending upward (no specific prior level provided, but positive context from flows)
- Suggests accumulation phase with buying pressure outpacing selling
- Aligns with fund inflows (+$97M over 3 months)
Institutional Interest Assessment:
- Elevated volume coupled with positive OBV and net inflows (+1.2% of assets quarterly) indicates institutional accumulation
- Position changes (added MSFT, SNOW, NOW; trimmed SNDK, CIEN, KLAC) reflect active quality screening, not passive drift
- Insider buying (+3.2% of weight) provides micro-signal of confidence

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.
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.
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.
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.

- Calls / Puts — notional value of long call / put exposure where this ticker is the underlying.

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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
