Bearish momentum prevails as weak trend meets resistance
The nearest dynamic resistance is marked by the Ichimoku kijun at GBX 660.10, while no immediate dynamic support from Ichimoku is evident below today's price. Momentum signals remain predominantly bearish: the MACD points to a strong sell and the ADX value is low, suggesting a weak trend. Oscillators (RSI at 44.31 and CCI neutral to oversold) lean toward further downside, while the Stoch RSI shows scattered oversold and neutral signals. BBP reads overbought on the daily chart but flags oversold conditions intraday, reflecting a dominance of sellers after the sharp drop post-open. The Awesome Oscillator aligns with the prevailing downturn. On the session, AV opened with a gap down from the previous close (GBX 644.00 to GBX 635.00) and now trades near the lower end of today's range (GBX 623.84 — 639.00) following a decline of 2.45%, indicating high intraday volatility and persistent negative tone. There is some divergence among oscillators, but the downside momentum and day’s trajectory confirm bearish short-term sentiment.
Previously it was reported that Aviva plc is trading below all key short- and medium-term moving averages with sustained selling pressure, while the price remains just under its long-term MA-200, reflecting a weak technical position. Momentum indicators, including RSI, Stoch RSI, and CCI, signal oversold conditions that may support a short-term rebound, but overall daily momentum remains neutral to negative, with resistance near the Ichimoku Kijun and support tentatively at the MA-200.
