Otter Tail Corp

OTTR remains in a Stage 2 advancing medium-term uptrend confirmed by a recent momentum breakout and clear higher-highs/lows, underpinned by rising intermediate moving averages. The long-term trend is bullish with price above the 200 DMA and strong relative strength. However, short-term conditions are extended above EMAs and the Options Score is extreme overbought, warranting deferment. We will watch for pullbacks into the 9EMA/21EMA support zone for higher-probability buy entries.
