Bottom line

ACN Technical Analysis Summary

ACN is in a deep bearish trend across both daily and weekly timeframes, with price down approximately 51% over the past year. The daily chart shows a tentative bounce from the 20-day low near 116.75, with price reclaiming the SMA20 at 137.0 and the MACD histogram turning positive. However, the weekly chart remains firmly bearish with RSI at 30.7 approaching oversold and MACD deeply negative. Key resistance sits at 170.54 (20-day high) and 174.63 (weekly SMA20). A sustained break above these levels would be the first sign of trend reversal. The primary risk is a breakdown below 116.75, which would open the path toward new multi-year lows.

Comparing daily (2-year) and weekly (5-year) perspectives to identify aligned or conflicting signals.

Daily (July 13, 2026)

Trend
Mixed but recovering. Price at 138.52 is above SMA20 (136.99) but well below SMA50 (159.54) and SMA200 (213.77). The SMA50 crossed below SMA200 in early 2026 (death cross), and price has continued to trade below both. The recent bounce above SMA20 is a short-term positive but needs follow-through.
Momentum
Neutral to slightly improving. RSI14 at 44.49 is below the 50 midline but not oversold. MACD (-7.46) is below zero but the histogram at +2.28 has turned positive, suggesting short-term downside momentum is fading.
Volatility
Moderate. ATR14 at 7.37 (5.32% of price) reflects above-average daily swings. Bollinger Bands (109.01 to 164.96) are wide, with price recovering from near the lower band toward the middle, indicating the bounce could have room to run.
Volume
Well below average. Latest volume of 5,373,500 is only 40.8% of the 20-period average (13,165,020), indicating reduced participation in the recent bounce.

Assessment

The daily timeframe shows a short-term recovery attempt within a deeply bearish structure. Price reclaiming SMA20 and the MACD histogram turning positive are tentative improvement signals. However, with volume well below average and price still well below SMA50 and SMA200, this bounce lacks conviction. A close above 159.54 (SMA50) would meaningfully improve the daily outlook.

Weekly (July 6, 2026 week)

Trend
Firmly bearish. Price at 135.23 is below SMA20 (174.63), SMA50 (218.42), and SMA200 (280.63). All three moving averages are sloping downward, confirming the structural downtrend. The SMA200 is now declining, indicating the long-term trend has turned negative.
Momentum
Strongly bearish. RSI14 at 30.71 is approaching oversold territory. MACD (-25.66) is deeply below zero and the histogram at -3.09 remains negative. No clear sign of weekly momentum reversal yet.
Volatility
High. ATR14 at 19.17 (14.18% of price) reflects extremely wide weekly ranges, consistent with a stock undergoing a major repricing. The Bollinger Bands (125.71 to 223.56) are very wide, signaling elevated uncertainty.
Volume
Near average. Weekly volume of 37,174,900 is 98.4% of the 20-week average (37,784,445), indicating sustained institutional activity during the decline.

Assessment

The weekly timeframe paints a deeply bearish picture. The stock has broken all major moving averages, the SMA200 is turning down, and momentum remains firmly negative. The RSI approaching oversold could attract dip buyers, but there is no structural signal of a trend change on the weekly chart. A weekly close above SMA20 (174.63) would be needed to suggest a potential bottoming process.

Scenarios

ACN Technical Scenarios

Conditions, invalidation triggers, and what to watch for each scenario.

Bullish

Trigger

Price breaks above 170.54 (20-day high) with above-average weekly volume, ideally closing above SMA50 (159.54) first.

Invalidation

Price fails to hold above SMA20 (136.99) and falls back toward the 116.75 low.

What to watch

A weekly close above 174.63 (weekly SMA20) would be the strongest early signal of a potential trend change.

Range-Bound

Trigger

Price continues to oscillate between 116.75 (20-day low) and 170.54 (20-day high) with no clear breakout.

Invalidation

A decisive weekly close outside either boundary with expanding volume.

What to watch

RSI oscillating between 30 and 50 on the daily; weekly RSI below 35 confirms ongoing bear pressure.

Bearish

Trigger

Price breaks below the 116.75 support level (20/60-day and 52-week low area), targeting the 2017 lows near 100.

Invalidation

Price reclaims the 170.54 level and holds above the 20-day SMA.

What to watch

Sustained closes below SMA20 (136.99); volume expanding on down days; further analyst downgrades.
