AI Summary

TrimMedium

ROAD remains in a Stage 4 decline with a clear lower-highs/lower-lows regime under declining EMAs. The Post-Capitulation pattern marked selling exhaustion and oversold conditions but has not reversed structure. Medium-term bias is bearish as price failed to reclaim the 9/21 EMA zone. A bounce into the 9 EMA is underway, making immediate sell-side engagement premature. Defer selling until rallies into the 9/21 EMA resistance zone where supply has historically dominated.
