Trend Strong uptrend in force

IQV (IQV) is trading at $237.56. Over the last 124 sessions the trend is **up** with a +44.5% move.

Price is -4.0% from the 6-month high and +51.6% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~49%.

Price is above the 15-day MA ($234.41, +1.3%) and above the 50-day SMA ($205.26).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $237.56, upper $259.13, middle $226.69, lower $194.24. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 28.6% of price — expanded (high volatility). Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Healthy pullback

RSI(14) is 64.6. Above 50 — bullish momentum intact, no exhaustion.

Generally: above 70 = overheated, above 50 = bullish trend, below 50 = bearish trend, below 30 = oversold.

MACD (12, 26, 9) Bearish — momentum slowing

MACD (12, 26, 9): line $10.54, signal $10.73, histogram -0.190.

The fast line has crossed below the signal line and the histogram is negative. Price may still be rising overall, but momentum is weakening — often seen before a correction, a sideways consolidation, or a final push higher.

Volume Analysis Accumulation — buyers in control

Over the recent 19 sessions, average up-day volume is 1.36× down-day volume. Price rises on heavier volume than it falls on — a sign buyers are more committed than sellers.

Rule of thumb: price up on high volume = accumulation; price down on high volume = distribution. Low-volume pullbacks after a rally are usually profit-taking, not panic.

Smart Money (A/D) Smart money accumulating

The Accumulation/Distribution line is rising and sitting near highs. Institutions are not aggressively distributing — large funds still appear net long.

A/D combines price position within the day's range with volume: rising = net buying pressure, falling = net selling pressure. It often leads price at turning points.

Anchored VWAP Above anchored VWAP — period buyers in profit

Price ($237.56) is +30.6% above the anchored VWAP ($181.91). Buyers who entered at the period's volume-weighted average are in profit and less likely to panic-sell.

Anchored VWAP is the volume-weighted average from the start of the scraped series — a proxy for the period's average institutional cost basis.

Key Levels 2 resistance / 3 support levels

Current price $237.56. Resistance above: $251.36, $259.13. Support below: $231.34, $226.69, $207.97.

Watch $251.36 as the first upside level to clear, and $231.34 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
