Bottom line
IFF Technical Analysis Summary
IFF (International Flavors & Fragrances) shows a mixed technical picture across daily and weekly timeframes. On the daily chart, price at 75.10 sits below SMA20 (77.95) and SMA50 (76.00), indicating short-term bearish pressure, while remaining above SMA200 (70.20) which still provides long-term support. The weekly chart shows price above SMA20 (74.48) and SMA50 (69.59) but below SMA200 (78.58), reflecting a recovery from the 252-week decline of -39.92%. RSI14 at 43.89 on the daily and 53.59 on the weekly points to neutral momentum. The daily MACD histogram is negative (-0.35) while the weekly shows a positive build (0.44), creating a mixed signal across timeframes. Key support is at 74.09 (20-day low) and 68.42 (60-day low). Resistance sits at 83.83 (20/60-day high). A sustained move above 83.83 is needed to confirm bullish momentum; a breakdown below 68.42 would suggest renewed bearish pressure.

Daily (July 13, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed with bearish near-term bias. Price at 75.10 is below SMA20 (77.95) and SMA50 (76.00), suggesting short-term selling pressure, but remains above SMA200 (70.20), indicating the long-term downtrend has not resumed.
- Momentum
- Bearish-neutral. RSI14 at 43.89 is below the 50 midline, indicating negative momentum but not oversold territory. MACD (0.87) is above zero but the line is below the signal line with a negative histogram (-0.35), signaling fading upside momentum.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 2.51 (3.34% of price) suggests average daily movement of about 2.5%. Bollinger Bands (72.78 to 83.11) show price near the lower band, reflecting recent selling pressure.
- Volume
- Slightly above average. Latest volume of 2,270,000 is 108.9% of the 20-period average (2,084,635), indicating active participation in the recent decline.
Assessment
The daily timeframe shows short-term bearish conditions with price below SMA20 and SMA50, and RSI below 50. The negative MACD histogram suggests downside momentum is intact. A move below 74.09 (20-day low) would confirm continued weakness, while a reclaim of SMA20 (77.95) would suggest a potential reversal.
Weekly (July 6, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Mixed with recovering medium-term structure. Price at 77.53 is above SMA20 (74.48) and SMA50 (69.59) but below SMA200 (78.58). The SMA200 is still sloping downward, reflecting the significant 252-week decline of -39.92%. SMA50 is converging upward toward SMA200.
- Momentum
- Bullish-neutral. RSI14 at 53.59 is above neutral, showing mild positive momentum. MACD at 2.18 is well above zero with a positive histogram (0.44), and the MACD line is above the signal line, indicating building upside momentum.
- Volatility
- Moderate to elevated. ATR14 at 5.75 (7.42% of price) reflects wider weekly ranges consistent with the choppy recovery phase.
- Volume
- Above average. Weekly volume of 10,726,000 is 117.9% of the 20-week average (9,093,055), indicating elevated participation.
Assessment
The weekly timeframe shows a gradual recovery from the 252-week lows. The positive MACD structure (line above signal, positive histogram) is constructive. However, price remains below SMA200 (78.58), which is the key resistance. A weekly close above 78.58 would be a meaningful technical improvement. The significant 252-week decline of -39.92% indicates the stock is still in a long-term repair phase.
