Bottom line
COHR Technical Analysis Summary
COHR (Coherent Corp) is emerging from a violent correction. After peaking at 440.00 in late June 2026, the stock fell to a 20-day low of 220.68 on July 29 before rebounding sharply to close at 288.14 on August 3, a one-day gain of 9.60%. The daily trend is still mixed: price sits just below SMA20 (290.11) and well below SMA50 (346.01), but remains above SMA200 (255.84). RSI14 has recovered to 46.68 near the 50 midline and the MACD histogram has flattened toward zero, signaling that the aggressive downside momentum is fading. The weekly timeframe shows a bearish momentum cross (histogram at -17.53) with price below the weekly SMA20 (327.15), yet the long-term uptrend remains intact above the weekly SMA50 (229.62) and SMA200 (102.28). Key support sits at 255.84 (SMA200) and 220.68 (20-day low), while resistance stands at 290.11 (SMA20) and 340.73 (20-day high). A sustained daily close above 290.11 would mark a short-term trend improvement; a break below 255.84 would reopen the path toward 220.68.

Daily (August 3, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 288.14 is just below SMA20 (290.11) and below SMA50 (346.01), but above SMA200 (255.84). The stock collapsed from the 440.00 late June peak to 220.68 on July 29 and has since bounced sharply, closing up 9.60% on August 3. SMA20 has flattened near price, but SMA50 still slopes down, keeping the short-term trend neutral until price clears 290.11.
- Momentum
- Neutral. RSI14 at 46.68 has recovered from oversold conditions and sits just below the 50 midline. The MACD line at -24.64 remains below zero and below the signal line (-24.27), but the histogram at -0.37 has flattened to near zero, indicating the heavy bearish momentum from the July selloff is dissipating. A positive histogram crossover would confirm renewed upside momentum.
- Volatility
- Elevated. ATR14 at 30.39 (10.55% of price) reflects the large daily swings of the correction and rebound. Bollinger Bands (232.76 to 347.46) are very wide, and price has climbed from the lower band toward the middle band as the recovery develops.
- Volume
- Slightly above average. Latest volume of 5,534,900 is about 117% of the 20-period average (4,738,255), with the August 3 rebound arriving on rising volume, a constructive sign compared with the lower participation during the slide.
Assessment
The daily chart is stabilizing after a sharp correction. Price has reclaimed ground off the 220.68 low and is testing the SMA20 at 290.11. Momentum has shifted from deeply bearish to neutral, with RSI back near 50 and the MACD histogram flattening. A daily close above 290.11 would strengthen the recovery case and open a path toward 340.73 (20-day high). Conversely, a loss of 255.84 (SMA200) would signal renewed downside toward 220.68.
Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Mixed with a bearish short-term tilt. Price at 262.89 is below the weekly SMA20 (327.15) but above the weekly SMA50 (229.62) and SMA200 (102.28). The 5-week return of -30.92% shows how fast the correction arrived, yet the long-term uptrend remains intact with the SMA200 steeply positive. The weekly SMA20 has turned down and is the key resistance to reclaim.
- Momentum
- Bearish. RSI14 at 42.90 is below the 50 midline and falling from the overbought levels seen earlier in the year. The MACD line at 19.84 remains above zero but below the signal line (37.37), with the histogram at -17.53 expanding downward, confirming a bearish momentum crossover on the weekly timeframe.
- Volatility
- High. ATR14 at 53.40 (20.31% of price) reflects very large weekly ranges, consistent with a high beta AI infrastructure name. Bollinger Bands (231.22 to 423.09) are wide, and price has fallen from the upper band into the lower half of the range.
- Volume
- In line with the average. Latest weekly volume of 31,745,600 is about 103% of the 20-week average (30,948,960), showing participation roughly consistent with recent weeks as the correction unfolds.
Assessment
The weekly chart confirms a deep correction within a longer-term uptrend. Price has broken below the weekly SMA20 for the first time in the recent advance, and weekly momentum is clearly bearish with RSI declining and the MACD histogram expanding lower. The structure will only turn constructive again on a weekly close back above 327.15. Until then, the weekly SMA50 at 229.62 and the 20-week low at 215.55 are the main downside reference points.
