This analysis uses PGR’s historical price patterns to define trading zones based on percentage distances from its 1-month high ($248.17). These zones are adjusted for PGR’s high volatility (widened for larger swings), recent price behavior (emphasizing data from the last ~3.4 years), and the bull market environment (tighter near-high zones). The zones are based on 55 historical reversal points (21 resistance, 34 support), with recent patterns weighted more heavily (average weight: 0.11).

This analysis uses the Adaptive Peak Distance Analyzer, a proprietary tool that studies PGR’s historical price movements to identify optimal trading zones. It calculates:
– 📊 Price Zones: Based on distances from 52-week highs where PGR historically breaks out or reverses, using 1254 days of data (since ~2021).
– 📈 Volatility Adjustment: Compares PGR’s 30-day volatility (24.9%) to SPY’s historical distribution, ranking at the 50.0th percentile, no major zone adjustments.
– ⏰ Time Decay: Weights recent price reversals (~3.4 years) more heavily (average weight: 0.11) to reflect current behavior.
– 🌍 Market Regime: Adjusts zones based on SPY’s position (2.3% vs. 50-day SMA), tighter near-high zones.
– 📏 Metrics: Uses ATR (1.57%) for stop-losses and risk/reward ratios (2.2:1 at sweet spot). Does not include volume indicators or other technicals (e.g., RSI, MACD).
