AI Summary

Stalk
TrimMedium

REX remains in a persistent Stage 3 downtrend, forming lower highs and lower lows beneath declining EMAs. While a recent Bearish Exhaustion candle shows temporary buying support, price is still below the 9/20EMA and 50SMA, confirming medium-term bearish control. Short-term timing is neutral—bouncing off the 200DMA but unable to reclaim key EMAs. We recommend trimming positions on rallies into the 9/20/50 EMA confluence, anticipating continued downward pressure. Key risk is a sharper mean-reversion bounce back above declining EMAs that blunts selling momentum.
