Bottom line
IFF Technical Analysis Summary
IFF (International Flavors & Fragrances) shows a constructive daily picture with a recovering weekly structure. On the daily chart, price at 80.58 sits above SMA20 (77.64), SMA50 (76.77), and SMA200 (71.51) in a bullish alignment, with a positive MACD structure (0.64 above signal 0.32) and a 52-week position near the high end at 87.36%. The weekly chart shows price at 79.22 above SMA20 (75.00) and SMA50 (70.38) but still below SMA200 (78.44), reflecting the ongoing repair after the 252-week decline of -36.17%. RSI14 at 58.89 on the daily and 55.03 on the weekly points to neutral-to-positive momentum without overbought conditions. Key support sits at 72.11 (20-day low) and 70.93 (60-day low). Resistance is at 83.83 (20/60-day high and 52-week high). A sustained move above 83.83 is needed to confirm the next leg higher; a breakdown below 72.11 would suggest renewed short-term weakness.

Daily (August 3, 2026)
- Trend
- Bullish. Price at 80.58 is above SMA20 (77.64), SMA50 (76.77), and SMA200 (71.51), with the moving averages in bullish alignment. The 252-bar return of +16.19% and a 52-week position near the high end at 87.36% support the constructive daily structure.
- Momentum
- Bullish-neutral. RSI14 at 58.89 is above the 50 midline but below 70, indicating positive momentum without overbought conditions. MACD at 0.64 is above the signal line at 0.32 with a positive histogram of 0.32, confirming near-term upside momentum.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 2.36 (2.93% of price) suggests average daily movement of about 2.4%. Bollinger Bands (73.54 to 81.73) show price trading above the middle band toward the upper area.
- Volume
- Slightly below average. Latest volume of 1,659,800 is 92.5% of the 20-period average (1,794,570), indicating normal participation.
Assessment
The daily chart shows a bullish alignment with price above all three key moving averages and a positive MACD structure. RSI is constructive but not overbought. Price trades in the upper part of its 52-week range, near the 83.83 resistance. A break above 83.83 would open the next leg higher, while a loss of SMA20 (77.64) would suggest short-term weakness.
Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Mixed with recovering medium-term structure. Price at 79.22 is above SMA20 (75.00) and SMA50 (70.38) but below SMA200 (78.44). The SMA200 is still positioned above price, reflecting the significant 252-week decline of -36.17%, though SMA50 is converging higher.
- Momentum
- Mildly positive. RSI14 at 55.03 is above neutral, showing mild positive momentum. MACD at 2.00 is above the signal line at 1.88 with a positive histogram of 0.12, indicating modest upside momentum that is not yet strong.
- Volatility
- Moderate to elevated. ATR14 at 5.70 (7.19% of price) reflects wider weekly ranges consistent with the choppy recovery phase.
- Volume
- Slightly below average. Weekly volume of 8,389,200 is 93.1% of the 20-week average (9,007,005), indicating normal participation.
Assessment
The weekly chart shows price reclaiming SMA20 and SMA50 after the 252-week decline of -36.17%. The positive MACD structure is modest. Price remains below SMA200 (78.44), which is the key weekly resistance. A weekly close above 78.44 would be a meaningful technical improvement, while the 20-week low at 65.15 and the 60-week low at 58.13 are the main downside reference levels.
