Trend Downtrend in force
IP (IP) is trading at $32.39. Over the last 128 sessions the trend is **down** with a -7.3% move.
Price is -26.5% from the 6-month high and +10.2% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~33%.
Price is below the 15-day MA ($34.01, -4.8%) and below the 50-day SMA ($37.87).
Bollinger Bands Near the lower band — weakness
Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $32.39, upper $36.39, middle $34.09, lower $31.79. Price is near the lower band — weakness.
Bandwidth is 13.5% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.
RSI (14) Below 50
RSI(14) is 36.2. 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 $-1.42, signal $-1.31, histogram -0.113.
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 1.31× 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 distributing
The A/D line is falling and well off highs. If smart money were exiting you would expect lower highs and volume spikes on down days — distribution pressure is building.
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 Below anchored VWAP — period buyers underwater
Price ($32.39) is -9.5% below the anchored VWAP ($35.78). Period buyers are underwater — overhead supply tends to cap rallies.
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 / 1 support levels
Current price $32.39. Resistance above: $34.60, $36.28, $37.18. Support below: $31.79.
Watch $34.60 as the first upside level to clear, and $31.79 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
