What Trend meansA trend-following algo. BUY while an uptrend holds on that horizon, EXIT when it breaks. Long only, judged on daily, weekly and monthly candles.
What Rebound meansA dip-buying algo. BUY after a sharp short-term drop in an otherwise healthy stock, EXIT once price closes back above its 12-day average. Short term and Mid term profiles.
What Patterns meansA chart-shape detector. Finds wedges, double tops and bottoms, cup and handle and more, marks the breakout or breakdown and measures the textbook price target. Full method

Is DAC oversold?

Close to it. The daily RSI (14) closed at 39.5; the classic oversold line is 30. On the shorter scale the Rebound algo uses, the 2-day RSI fell to 5 on Nov 2, 2026 and the stock closed 2.3% under its 12-day average, which is what triggered its BUY.

Is DAC a buy today?

QuantivFlow does not give advice. It shows what each algo sees: Trend is EXIT on the daily horizon, Rebound sees a dip worth buying for a short bounce, Patterns sees an ascending channel that broke down with a target 13% lower. How you weigh the three depends on your horizon and risk tolerance; past signals do not guarantee future results.
