Lennar B Drops 3.81% To $115.35 Amid Sustained Bearish Momentum

Lennar B (LEN.B) concluded the latest session with a 3.81% decline to $115.35, marking its second consecutive down day and accumulating a 6.78% loss over this period. The price opened near the high of $119.32 and closed at the day’s low, reflecting sustained selling pressure.
Candlestick Theory
The most recent sessions reveal a distinct bearish pattern. October 7 formed a long-bodied red candle closing at its low after a gap-down open, signaling strong distribution. This follows a similarly bearish candle on October 6. Key resistance now aligns with the October 6 high of $124.12, while immediate support rests at $115.35. A break below $115.35 may expose the swing low near $113.44 from August 6. The absence of reversal patterns (e.g., hammers) in the current decline underscores dominant bearish sentiment.
Moving Average Theory
Lennar B trades below all critical moving averages (50-day ~122.50, 100-day ~125.00, 200-day ~120.50), confirming a bearish trend structure. The 50-day MA crossed below the 200-day MA in late September—a "death cross"—reinforcing long-term downside momentum. Recent bounces near the 200-day MA in September failed to sustain, converting this level to resistance. The alignment of shorter averages below longer ones exemplifies a downtrend, with rallies likely to face selling pressure near the 50-day MA.
MACD & KDJ Indicators
The MACD (12,26,9) remains in negative territory with the signal line above the MACD line, reflecting persistent bearish momentum. The histogram shows expanding downside momentum since mid-September. Concurrently, the KDJ oscillator (9,3,3) registers oversold readings (K and D lines below 20), though without bullish divergence. While oversold conditions suggest potential for a short-term bounce, the lack of reversal signals from MACD/KDJ convergence indicates downward pressure may persist.
Bollinger Bands
Price recently breached the lower Bollinger Band (20-day SMA, 2 SD) near $116.50, an event often preceding volatility expansions or oversold reversals. Band width has expanded since late September, confirming heightened volatility. Historically, such breaks led to mean-reversion rallies (e.g., August 6 dip to $113.44 preceded a 10% rebound), but the current downtrend’s strength reduces reversal probability. A sustained position below the lower band signals capitulation risk.
Volume-Price Relationship
Down days have been accompanied by above-average volume, particularly on October 7 (53,887 shares vs. 30-day avg ~45,000), validating bearish conviction. Up-volume days during the September consolidation showed diminished participation, indicating weak buying interest. The volume surge during the early-October breakdown enhances its technical significance, suggesting institutional distribution. Supportive volume on rebounds will be essential to confirm any reversal.
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
The 14-day RSI (~28) sits in oversold territory (<30), typically signaling exhaustion. However, this metric alone hasn’t preceded reliable reversals recently; RSI dwelled below 30 for 10+ days in July without immediate recovery. Bearish divergence occurred in late September when price formed a lower high while RSI peaked lower, foreshadowing the current decline. Current oversold conditions warrant caution but align with a strong downtrend, reducing reversal confidence.
Fibonacci Retracement
Applying Fib levels to the rally from $94.09 (April 9 low) to $146.69 (December 18 high) identifies critical retracement zones. The 61.8% level at $113.50 aligns with the August 6 low and offers major support. A decisive break below this could target the 78.6% retracement ($105.80). Resistance tiers are layered at the 50% ($120.40) and 38.2% ($127.30) levels, which previously capped recovery attempts in late September.
Confluence and Divergence Observations
Confluence of bearish signals is evident: price below all key MAs, MACD negative crossover, high-volume breakdown, and oversold yet non-divergent RSI/KDJ. A notable divergence occurred between price and RSI in late September (price lower high, RSI higher high), which resolved with downside momentum. The $113.50 zone offers a critical confluence point—aligning Fib 61.8% support, the August swing low, and psychological support. A close below this level may accelerate selling, while reclaiming $120.40 (50% Fib + 50-day MA) would signal technical recovery potential.
