Bottom line

CHRW Technical Analysis Summary

CHRW has suffered a sharp technical breakdown after trading near its 52-week high of 210.33 in July. The stock has fallen to 147.00, below all major daily moving averages (SMA20 at 187.44, SMA50 at 185.13, SMA200 at 171.09). Daily RSI at 25.78 is deeply oversold, and MACD is strongly bearish with a negative histogram of -6.78. The weekly chart confirms the selling pressure with a record weekly decline of -20.79% on volume at 240.7% of its 20-week average. Price sits between the 20-period low at 143.16 and the weekly SMA200 at 107.93. A daily close below 143.16 would open the next downside leg, while the oversold RSI leaves room for a technical bounce. Near-term resistance is at the daily SMA50 (185.13).

Daily (August 3, 2026)

Trend
Bearish. Price at 147.00 has broken decisively below SMA20 (187.44), SMA50 (185.13), and SMA200 (171.09). All moving averages are now sloping downward, and the price breakdown below every major SMA marks the end of the prior uptrend structure.
Momentum
Bearish. RSI14 at 25.78 is in oversold territory below 30. MACD at -8.88 is below the signal line at -2.10 with a sharply negative histogram of -6.78, confirming strong downward momentum.
Volatility
Elevated. ATR14 at 8.33 (5.67% of price) reflects expanding daily ranges. Bollinger Bands (146.76 to 228.12) are wide, and price is trading near the lower band, consistent with a sharp selloff.
Volume
Above average. Latest volume of 2,932,800 is 119.4% of the 20-period average (2,457,225), indicating active selling during the decline.

Assessment

The daily chart shows a sharp breakdown. Price has fallen below all major SMAs after a strong rally, RSI is deeply oversold, and MACD is strongly bearish. The oversold RSI may allow for a short-term technical bounce, but the trend has clearly turned down. The 20-period low at 143.16 is the key near-term support; a close below it would signal the next downside leg.

Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)

Trend
Mixed. Price at 147.73 is below SMA20 (177.70) and SMA50 (164.07) but remains above SMA200 (107.93), which is still rising. The long-term uptrend holds only while price stays above SMA200, but the breakdown below SMA20 and SMA50 marks a major corrective phase.
Momentum
Bearish. RSI14 at 40.18 has fallen from bullish territory and is trending toward the 30 zone. MACD at 4.81 has crossed below the signal line at 7.30 with a negative histogram of -2.49, a bearish crossover on the weekly timeframe.
Volatility
Elevated. ATR14 at 16.56 (11.21% of price) reflects the extreme weekly range behind the -20.79% one-week decline, the largest weekly loss in the series.
Volume
Well above average. Weekly volume of 21,566,300 is 240.7% of the 20-week average (8,960,560), indicating heavy participation in the selloff.

Assessment

The weekly chart records a severe one-week decline on heavy volume that ended a multi-year advance. Price is now positioned between SMA50 and SMA200. A weekly close below SMA200 at 107.93 would signal a deeper long-term correction, while holding above it keeps the weekly structure a bull-market pullback even as momentum turns negative.
