Demark 9 ? Demark 9 indicators are designed to look for exhaustion in the selling or buying trend which can often be predictive of a reversal point. This indicator is triggered when there are 9 consecutive days where the closing price is higher/lower than the closing price 4 days ago.

1y S-Momentum ? Smooth Momentum is our proprietary technical indicator that looks for momentum with the greatest consistency and steady velocity. We have penalized dramatic swings and fluctuations. If the momentum is too high and an asset spikes upward, this is often unreliable and collapses back down. But the smooth momentum provides the highest probability of continuing into the near future with the same directional rate of change. Several complex factors are weighted by neural nets to maximize probabilistic accuracy. It works the same with positive or negative directions.	14.80 (%57.4)

Daily Technical Analysis of Mdu Resources Group, Inc.

Mdu Resources Group is down a bit on the day, funds flowing out kept the price down -1.47% since yesterday. It looks like MDU may be interacting with a slightly angled support line. This area could represent a pivot point that it moves up from. MDU hasn't had very clear momentum over the last 3 months and has sort of been bouncing around so that doesn't make me feel very certain that it can punsh through the line.

If the price bounces off of the support and moves up it'll probably head up to the $17.26 level, at which point it may hit some selling pressure. If it punches through this support level, it can easily push down to $15.3684 where it may meet further support, hopefully it can consolidate around that point.
