Trend Range-bound / consolidating

Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is trading at $260.93. Over the last 125 sessions the trend is **flat** with a +7.2% move.

Price is -2.4% from the 6-month high and +17.9% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~23%.

Price is on the 15-day MA ($259.93) and above the 50-day SMA ($251.32).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $260.93, upper $268.23, middle $258.84, lower $249.44. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 7.3% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Below 50

RSI(14) is 44.8. Momentum has faded; the bullish case needs rebuilding.

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 $2.47, signal $2.74, histogram -0.267.

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 Balanced volume

Up-day and down-day volume are roughly even (ratio 0.94) over the recent 19 sessions — no strong conviction either way.

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 well off 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 ($260.93) is +8.1% above the anchored VWAP ($241.44). 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 3 resistance / 3 support levels

Current price $260.93. Resistance above: $261.41, $264.15, $268.23. Support below: $258.55, $255.26, $251.95.

Watch $261.41 as the first upside level to clear, and $258.55 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
