Bottom line
AMT Technical Analysis Summary
AMT (American Tower Corporation) shows a bearish-leaning technical structure with price below all key moving averages on both daily and weekly timeframes. The daily trend is mixed with price at 169.50 below SMA20 (172.45), SMA50 (177.77), and SMA200 (177.02). RSI14 at 45.08 on the daily and 43.64 on the weekly indicates bearish momentum territory. The weekly MACD is bearish with the MACD line at -1.72 below the signal line at -0.89 and the histogram expanding negatively at -0.83. Price is trading near the 52-week low of 160.06, with the 52-week position at just 14.40%. Key support rests at 160.06 (20/60-day low), while resistance sits at 190.14 (20-day high) and 194.23 (60-day high). A breakdown below 160.06 would signal continued downside; a recovery above SMA20 at 172.45 would be the first sign of trend stabilization.

Daily (July 13, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed with bearish bias. Price at 169.50 is below SMA20 (172.45), SMA50 (177.77), and SMA200 (177.02). The SMA200 is below SMA50, preventing a full bearish classification, but price remains below all key averages, indicating weak near-term price action.
- Momentum
- Bearish. RSI14 at 45.08 is below the neutral 50 level, indicating bearish momentum. MACD (-4.04) is below zero and the line is below the signal, with the histogram at -0.17 remaining negative though flattening, suggesting persistent selling pressure.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 4.77 (2.81% of price) suggests average daily movement of about 2.8%. Bollinger Bands (157.05 to 187.85) are moderately wide with price below the middle band at 172.45, reflecting the bearish price position within the band structure.
- Volume
- Below average. Latest volume of 2,135,300 is 58.2% of the 20-period average (3,669,270), indicating reduced participation. The lower volume on the recent bounce from 160.06 lows suggests lack of strong buying conviction.
Assessment
The daily timeframe shows a bearish-leaning structure. Price is below all key SMAs with the RSI in bearish territory. The flattening MACD histogram could hint at slowing downside momentum, but this is not a confirmed reversal signal. Price is near the 52-week low of 160.06, a critical support level. A sustained move above SMA20 (172.45) would be the first meaningful bullish development.
Weekly (July 6, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Bearish. Price at 168.59 is below SMA20 (177.69), SMA50 (180.34), and SMA200 (184.53) with a bearish alignment (SMA20 below SMA50 below SMA200). This bearish moving average structure reflects a persistent downtrend over multiple timeframes.
- Momentum
- Bearish. RSI14 at 43.64 is below neutral and trending lower over the past several weeks. MACD at -1.72 with the histogram at -0.83 and the MACD line below the signal line at -0.89 represents a bearish configuration with negative and expanding histogram, indicating momentum is building to the downside.
- Volatility
- Moderate to elevated. ATR14 at 10.59 (6.28% of price) reflects wider weekly ranges, consistent with the prolonged downtrend from the 225.61 52-week high.
- Volume
- Near average. Weekly volume of 15,942,900 is 101.5% of the 20-week average (15,702,300), indicating consistent participation in the current price action.
Assessment
The weekly timeframe confirms a bearish picture. The bearish SMA alignment (SMA20 < SMA50 < SMA200) is a classic downtrend indicator. The MACD is in full bearish configuration with negative and expanding histogram, suggesting ongoing downside momentum. The stock has lost -32.93% over the past 252 weeks. The critical level to watch is the 160.06 low; a breakdown below this level would represent a new 52-week low and potential further downside.
