MPC MARATHON PETROLEUM CORPORATION
MARATHON PETROLEUM CORPORATION (MPC) trend channel, buy level and 3-month target on Trade The Path. Sector: Energy. Listed on NYSE. Levels below are fitted to this ticker's own swing highs and lows (Theil–Sen, log-price), then projected 3 months. If this ticker has no settled sample yet, treat the numbers as a geometric read, not a track record. Information only, not financial advice.
Mid-channel, rising on both timeframes
Price is between the two trend lines. Nothing to act on yet.
The next few months are read from the last 12 months, not the last 18 months: that channel fits this stock's recent turns at least as well (60% against 48%) and it is the one price is respecting now. The last 18 months stay as context: rising, +74% a year. The nearest ceiling overhead is US$531.68, from the last 12 months. What would overturn this: a close below US$293.87 — the floor of the channel being read — after which the trend, not the entry, is what was wrong.

Our target
No published call today because price has closed 32.5% clear above the channel, so the fitted lines no longer describe where it is. No alerts are sent. The buy and target below are still this site's read of the fitted channel.
