How UNISYS CORP looks technically

UNISYS CORP (UIS) is trading 18.5% below its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a long-term downtrend. Its 50-day average crossed below its 200-day average about 12 trading days ago — a "death cross", a bearish long-term signal. A strong downtrend is in place — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 36, with sellers in control. Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 38, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). It made a new 20-day low about 9 trading days ago. It is 53.6% below its highest point of the past year. Day-to-day price swings are unusually narrow versus its own recent history — a "Bollinger squeeze" (in the tightest 2% of the past ~6 months), which often precedes a bigger move.

Position in its 14-day rangeit is trading in the lower half of its 14-day range ($2.16 to $2.51) — its "stochastic" reading is 43 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 climbing within that range over the last few sessions.42.9

Typical daily rangein a typical session it travels about $0.1045 between its high and its low — about 4.5% 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$0.1045
Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ)most of its recent trading has stayed between about $2.21 and $2.53 — 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$2.21 – $2.37 – $2.53
Typical daily range (% of price)its price moves about 4.5% 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 price4.5%

Trend (Ichimoku cloud)

1
Vs the Ichimoku cloudtrading 20% below the Ichimoku cloud — a band drawn from where its own highs and lows sat up to 2026-09-01 and projected forward over today's price, the side traders read as an established downtrend, with the band above acting as the level that would have to be cleared. The band itself is thick, spanning 24.9% of the share price, which is taken to mean a barrier that has held for a while and takes effort to cross.-19.6%

Volume-weighted price

Vs this year’s average price paidthe price is 22% below the average price paid so far this year, so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $2.95 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 190 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP.-21.6%
Vs the average paid since it last reportedthe price is 12% below the average price paid since it last reported on 2026-07-29 (its 8-K), so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water.

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

Its recent swings can be read as a five-part downward sequence — what Elliott-wave chartists call an impulse — now in leg 4 of five, a pullback against that direction.

This labelling fails — stops being a possible reading at all — if it closes above $2.39.

It is the only labelling that fits these swings, though its proportions are not the textbook ones.

On past moves of this shape the leg has usually ended somewhere between $2.26 and $2.37 — that is where it has tended to end if the count holds, not a forecast of where the price goes.

This reading has stood for 3 trading days, since 2026-10-06.

Only open-market purchases (SEC code P) and sales (code S) are counted here. Option exercises, vesting/awards, gifts, and shares withheld for taxes are excluded — they are compensation or mechanical, not open-market conviction. Sales may be planned and non-discretionary (e.g. a Rule 10b5-1 plan) and are not necessarily bearish; open-market buying is not a recommendation to buy. Informational only — not financial advice.

Change counts cover only managers that filed 13F reports in BOTH quarters, derived between two quarter-end snapshots — not same-day trades; a single manager is never said to have "bought" or "sold".

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.

Short interest (FINRA)

UIS had 5,691,199 shares of reported short interest as of the 2026-09-15 FINRA settlement date (delayed, bi-monthly; not real-time).

UIS had 7.81% of its shares outstanding sold short as of the 2026-09-15 FINRA settlement date (percent of FLOAT would be higher — float is not disclosed in the source). FINRA reported 10.85 days to cover at the same settlement.

  • Reported short interest (shares) 5,691,199
  • Short interest (% of shares outstanding) 7.81%
  • Prior settlement (shares) 5,484,268
  • Reported change 3.77%
  • Days to cover (reported) 10.85

Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-09-15 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.
