Trend Range-bound / consolidating

Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is trading at $256.98. Over the last 125 sessions the trend is **flat** with a +7.7% move.

Price is -3.8% from the 6-month high and +16.1% from the low. Annualised volatility (30-day) is ~26%.

Price is on the 15-day MA ($257.93) and above the 50-day SMA ($247.68).

Bollinger Bands Inside the bands — range-bound

Bollinger Bands (20, 2): price is at $256.98, upper $267.37, middle $256.53, lower $245.69. Price is inside the bands — range-bound.

Bandwidth is 8.4% of price — moderate. Width contraction often precedes a directional breakout; expansion confirms one underway.

RSI (14) Healthy pullback

RSI(14) is 57.8. 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 $2.21, signal $3.21, histogram -1.002.

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 1.03) 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 on hold

The A/D line slope is flat and the line is well off highs — institutions are neither aggressively accumulating nor distributing.

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 ($256.98) is +6.7% above the anchored VWAP ($240.91). 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 $256.98. Resistance above: $267.37, $274.90. Support below: $256.53, $250.44, $245.49.

Watch $267.37 as the first upside level to clear, and $256.53 as the first downside level to hold. A clean break of either often determines the next leg.
