How Arista Networks looks technically
Arista Networks (ANET) is trading 26.5% above its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a longer-term uptrend. Its 50-day average crossed above its 200-day average about 272 trading days ago — a "golden cross", a bullish long-term signal. A trend is forming but not yet strong — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 23 (a reading of 25+ marks a strong trend). Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 52, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bearish about 3 trading days ago (its momentum flipped negative). It made a new 20-day high about 8 trading days ago.
Trend

| Distance from the 200-day | it is trading 26.5% above its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a longer-term uptrend | +26.5% |
|---|---|---|
| 50-day moving average | its average price over the last 50 trading days — a short-term trend line — is $177.36 | $177.36 |
| 200-day moving average | its average price over the last 200 trading days — the long-term trend line — is $149.12 | $149.12 |
| Swing structure | its recent peaks and dips disagree — one of them is rising while the other is not, so there is no clean up or down pattern in the swings | mixed — one of the two is not confirming |
| Last swing turn | its last significant turn was a swing high 16 calendar days ago — the swings before that are what the structure reading is measured on | 16 sessions |
| Since the 50/200 cross | its 50-day average crossed above its 200-day average about 272 trading days ago — a "golden cross", a bullish long-term signal | 272 sessions |

Momentum

| 14-day RSI | momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 52, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30) | 51.7 |
|---|---|---|
| Position in its 14-day range | it is trading near the bottom of its 14-day range ($183.59 to $214.84) — its "stochastic" reading is 16 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been slipping within that range over the last few sessions. | 16.2 |
| Since the MACD crossed zero | MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bearish about 3 trading days ago (its momentum flipped negative) | 3 sessions |
Range
12
| 52-week high | its highest closing price over the past year (about 252 trading days) was $214.84 | $214.84 |
|---|---|---|
| From the 52-week high | it is 12.2% below its 52-week high (its highest price of the past year) | -12.2% |
| Above the 52-week low | it is 64.3% above its 52-week low (its lowest price of the past year) | +64.3% |
| Below the 52-week high | it is 12.2% below its highest point of the past year | 12.2% |
| Since a 20-day breakout | it made a new 20-day high about 8 trading days ago | 8 sessions |
| Since a 55-day breakout | it made a new 55-day high about 8 trading days ago | 8 sessions |
| All-time high | its highest closing price on record is $416.20 (set on 2024-12-03) | $416.20 |
| Given back of the 52-week move | over the past year its closes ranged ($116.13 to $210.50), and it has given back roughly a quarter of its rise from last year’s low — 23% of it. Chart-watchers call 61.8%-65% given back the "golden pocket" — for this company that is $149.16 to $152.18. It is watched widely enough that orders cluster there, which is the honest reason it matters; it is not a forecast. | 23.1% |
| From the all-time high | it is 54.7% below its all-time high | -54.7% |
| Nearest price level | it is trading 4.9% above a support level at $179.44 — a price it turned at three times since 2026-04-24, most recently on 2026-07-23. Since 2024-08-21 it has 13 such levels below the current price and 0 above. Levels like these describe where the price has reversed or paused before; they are not a forecast of where it will go. | -4.9% |
| All-time low | its lowest closing price on record is $3.28 (set on 2016-02-09) | $3.28 |
| Above the all-time low | it is 5648.8% above its all-time low | +5,649% |
Volatility
5
| Band width vs its own 6 months | day-to-day price swings are about average versus its own recent 6-month history | 61st percentile |
|---|---|---|
| Typical daily range | in a typical session it travels about $9.47 between its high and its low — about 5.0% of its price. That is its "average true range" over the last 14 sessions, which also counts the distance from the previous close, so a day that opens well away from yesterday counts as the large move it was | $9.47 |
| Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ) | most of its recent trading has stayed between about $162.62 and $213.35 — the "Bollinger bands", a range drawn two standard deviations either side of its 20-day average price, which widens when the stock gets more volatile and narrows when it settles | $162.62 – $187.98 – $213.35 |
| Typical daily range (% of price) | its price moves about 5.0% in a typical session — about typical for the companies we cover. This is the average gap between a session's high and low over the last 14 sessions, counting overnight moves, expressed against the current price so it can be compared with companies trading at any price | 5.0% |
| Stretch from the 200-day average | it is trading 4.2 daily ranges above its 200-day average price (26.5% above it in plain percentage terms) — a way of asking how far it has stretched from its own average in units of how far it normally moves in a day, so a calm company and a jumpy one can be compared on the same scale | 4.2 daily ranges above its 200-day average |

Price gaps

| Gap at the open | it opened on 2026-08-21 at essentially the same price it closed at the session before — no meaningful overnight gap | +0.0% |
|---|---|---|
| Open gap | it gapped 2.9% below the previous close 3 sessions ago and has not traded back through the level it left behind at 201.8 — an "unfilled gap", which describes a price range no trade has since crossed and is not a forecast that it will be crossed | -2.9% |
| Gap filled | a 3.9% gap up opened on 2026-08-12 has been "filled" 3 sessions ago — price traded back through the level the gap left behind, and it took 4 sessions to close | 3 sessions ago |

Signal agreement
2
| Bullish technical signals | 5 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bullish state: a "golden cross" — its 50-day average is above its 200-day, trading above its 200-day average, outperforming the market over 6 months, near the bottom of its 14-day range (oversold), trading above the Ichimoku cloud — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 5 of 9 |
|---|---|---|
| Bearish technical signals | 1 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it is currently in a bearish state: MACD momentum is negative — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 1 of 9 |
Trend (Ichimoku cloud)
1
| Vs the Ichimoku cloud | trading 9.2% above the Ichimoku cloud — a band drawn from where its own highs and lows sat up to 2026-07-16 and projected forward over today's price, the side traders read as an established uptrend, with the band below acting as the level that would have to give way. The band itself is moderate, spanning 5.5% of the share price. | +9.2% |
|---|
Volume-weighted price
2
| Vs this year’s average price paid | the price is 23% above the average price paid so far this year, so the typical buyer over that stretch is showing a gain. That average is $153.80 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 158 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | +22.7% |
|---|---|---|
| Vs the average paid since it last reported | the price is 3% below the average price paid since it last reported on 2026-08-04 (its 8-K), so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $195.27 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 14 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -3.4% |
Price levels it has turned at before
ANET last closed at $188.65 on 2026-08-21. Since 2024-08-21 it has turned at 13 prices below its last close and 0 above; the 3 nearest below are listed, nearest first.
| Level | Side | Distance | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| $179.44 | Support | 4.9% below the last close | turned there three times · 2026-04-24 to 2026-07-23 |
| $162.47 | Support | 13.9% below the last close | turned there twice · 2025-10-10 to 2026-04-28 |
| $156.28 | Support | 17.2% below the last close | turned there four times · 2025-09-11 to 2026-07-29 |
A level is a price this company reversed or paused at more than once — they describe past behaviour, not a forecast of where the price will go.
Wave structure
No Elliott-wave labelling currently fits its swings: the recent highs and lows do not satisfy the three rules a five-wave count has to obey, so there is no count to show rather than a count we are unsure about.

- Consensus EPS estimate$1.08 next reporting period, as of 2026-08-17
Change over time is not available yet: it needs two readings of the same reporting period at least 30 days apart, and we have been recording these estimates since 2026-08-04. An estimate for a DIFFERENT quarter is not a revision, so a reading from before the last report is never compared with one after it.
The consensus estimate for the next reporting period, and how it has moved between readings of that SAME period. A change is measured only between readings estimating one period — when a company reports, the consensus moves to the next quarter and the two numbers are not comparable. Informational only, not a forecast and not advice.

Institutional holdings are quarter-end long positions reported on SEC Form 13F-HR, filed up to 45 days after the quarter ends — they are delayed, are not real-time trades, exclude short positions and most non-US securities, and are not investment advice. Any increase/decrease is a reported change between two quarterly snapshots, not a same-day purchase or sale. These are quarter-end snapshots from the 13F filings on SEC EDGAR, filed within 45 days — not real-time, and any change is a difference between two quarterly reports, not a same-day trade.

Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-07-31 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
