Zydus Lifesciences, a key player in the Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology sector, has experienced a notable shift in its technical momentum, moving from a mildly bullish stance to a sideways trend. This change is reflected in a range of technical indicators, including MACD, RSI, and moving averages, which present a mixed picture for investors analysing the stock’s near-term trajectory.



The stock closed at ₹931.90, slightly below its previous close of ₹934.30, with intraday prices ranging between ₹926.80 and ₹940.05.

Examining the technical indicators, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) shows a mildly bearish signal on both weekly and monthly charts, suggesting a cautious outlook on momentum. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) presents a divergence between timeframes: no clear signal on the weekly chart but a bullish indication on the monthly chart, implying potential underlying strength over a longer period. Bollinger Bands on both weekly and monthly scales indicate bearish pressure, reflecting increased volatility and possible downward price movement.



Moving averages on the daily chart maintain a mildly bullish stance, signalling some short-term upward momentum. However, the Know Sure Thing (KST) oscillator aligns with the MACD, showing mildly bearish trends on weekly and monthly charts. Dow Theory analysis reveals a split view, with weekly data mildly bearish but monthly data mildly bullish, highlighting the complexity of the current technical landscape. On-Balance Volume (OBV) also reflects this duality, mildly bearish weekly but mildly bullish monthly, indicating mixed volume trends supporting price action.
