Ball Corp

BALL is in a Stage 2 advancing regime underpinned by a dominant Lockout Rally, with price accepted above rising short-term EMAs and shallow pullbacks indicating sustained demand. Medium-term bias remains bullish, supported by clear HH/HL structure and EMA support, while overbought conditions are mitigated by lockout dynamics. The active lockout rally override favors immediate participation on pullbacks into the 9/21 EMA zone, aligning with our Growth at Reasonable Price discipline.
