Is COHR stock in an uptrend?

Not yet. COHR stock is not in an uptrend by our rules: it does not meet the Minervini Trend Template criteria and neither Daily Pivot Breakout momentum filter is active. Price is below its 200-day moving average.

Both Daily Pivot momentum filters are inactive. The 100-day ROC is -33.6% against a required 40%, and the 100-day EMA slope is 10.3% against a required 25%, so 0 of 2 filters are active. The latest Minervini Trend Template scan on Aug 17, 2026 did not match. Price sits below the 303.42 moving average, the 50-day SMA, the 150-day SMA and the 200-day SMA, and the moving averages are not stacked. The trend state is labeled sideways, with RSI at 36.69 and MACD bearish.
