Bottom line
ABBV Technical Analysis Summary
ABBV shows a daily pullback within a longer-term uptrend at the August 3, 2026 cutoff. The daily close of 245.10 is below SMA20 at 252.82 but above SMA50 at 237.55 and SMA200 at 221.61. Daily RSI14 at 45.95 is below neutral and the MACD histogram is negative at -1.78, showing fading near-term momentum after the drop from the 267.47 high. The weekly picture is still bullish: price at 250.94 is above every weekly average with a positive MACD histogram at 4.29. Immediate support is the 241.47 20-day low, with SMA50 at 237.55 and the 198.61 60-day low further down. Resistance is the 267.47 20-day, 60-day, and 52-week high. A close back above SMA20 at 252.82 would restore short-term strength, while a break below 241.47 would deepen the correction.

Daily (August 3, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 245.10 is below SMA20 (252.82) but above SMA50 (237.55) and SMA200 (221.61). The averages remain in bullish order with SMA20 above SMA50 above SMA200, but the pullback from the 267.47 high has pushed price under the 20-day average.
- Momentum
- Neutral to weak. RSI14 at 45.95 is below the neutral 50 level. MACD (4.53) is below its signal (6.31) with a negative histogram at -1.78, indicating fading near-term momentum after the decline.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 6.99 (2.85% of price). Bollinger Bands (241.19 to 264.46) are wide with the close near the lower band, reflecting elevated recent swings.
- Volume
- Above average. Latest volume of 7,589,144 is 128.04% of the 20-period average (5,927,112), showing active participation during the pullback.
Assessment
The daily timeframe shows a pullback within a longer uptrend. Price has broken below the 20-day average and MACD momentum has turned negative, but the 50-day and 200-day averages still hold, keeping the broader trend intact. The 241.47 20-day low is the immediate support; a close below it would open the way toward SMA50 at 237.55 and the 198.61 60-day low.
Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Bullish. The completed weekly close at 250.94 is above SMA20 (222.80), SMA50 (220.57), and SMA200 (171.48), with the averages in bullish order. The longer-term uptrend remains intact.
- Momentum
- Bullish. RSI14 at 61.17 is above neutral but below the overbought threshold. MACD (11.03) is above its signal (6.74) with a positive histogram at 4.29, confirming upward momentum on the weekly timeframe.
- Volatility
- Moderate to elevated. ATR14 at 14.54 (5.79% of price). Bollinger Bands (179.69 to 265.90) are wide, with the close in the upper part of the range after the extended run.
- Volume
- Slightly below average. Weekly volume of 31,686,700 is 94.72% of the 20-week average (33,452,355), indicating normal participation.
Assessment
The weekly timeframe remains bullish, with price above all key moving averages and a positive MACD histogram. The pullback on the daily chart has not broken the weekly structure. The 267.47 weekly high is the key resistance; a close above it would signal resumption, while a break below the 189.40 20-week low would weaken the longer-term setup.
