Bottom line
AAPL Technical Analysis Summary
AAPL displays a strong bullish technical picture across both daily and weekly timeframes. Price trades well above all key moving averages (SMA20, SMA50, SMA200) on both timeframes, with the SMA200 sloping upward confirming the long-term uptrend. RSI near 64 on both frames shows bullish momentum without reaching overbought territory above 70. The MACD histogram is positive and rising on both daily and weekly, signaling accelerating upside momentum. Key support rests at the 20-day low of 273.75 and the 60-day low of 261.03. Resistance is at the 52-week high of 323.45. A breakout above 323.45 would open the path to new highs; a breakdown below the SMA50 at 298.67 would suggest short-term weakness.

Daily (July 13, 2026)
- Trend
- Bullish. Price at 317.31 is above SMA20 (299.19), SMA50 (298.67), and SMA200 (272.41). The SMA20 is above SMA50, confirming a short-term bullish alignment. The SMA200 is sloping upward, supporting the long-term uptrend.
- Momentum
- Bullish. RSI14 at 64.17 is in bullish territory but below the 70 overbought threshold, suggesting room for further upside. MACD at 5.25 with signal at 2.58 and a positive rising histogram of 2.67 indicates accelerating bullish momentum.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 8.09 (2.55% of price) suggests average daily movement of about 2.6%. Bollinger Bands (275.22 to 323.16) are moderately wide with price near the upper band, reflecting strong upward momentum.
- Volume
- Below average. Latest volume of 43,214,700 is 66.9% of the 20-period average (64,586,875), indicating reduced participation during the recent rally.
Assessment
The daily chart shows a strong uptrend with price at the upper end of its range. All key moving averages are aligned bullishly. RSI is bullish but not overbought, and the rising MACD histogram confirms momentum. The below-average volume during the rally warrants attention, but the overall technical structure is positive. A sustained move above 323.45 (52-week high) would confirm the next leg higher.
Weekly (July 6, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Bullish. Price at 315.32 is above SMA20 (281.12), SMA50 (265.57), and well above SMA200 (207.74). The SMA200 is sloping strongly upward, confirming a mature long-term uptrend. All major moving averages are in a bullish alignment.
- Momentum
- Bullish. RSI14 at 64.60 is in bullish territory below 70. MACD at 13.01 with signal at 11.16 and a positive histogram of 1.85 confirms steady upside momentum on the weekly scale.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 15.79 (5.01% of price) reflects normal weekly ranges for a large-cap tech stock in an uptrend.
- Volume
- Slightly below average. Weekly volume of 219,660,300 is 92.3% of the 20-week average (237,897,835), near normal participation levels.
Assessment
The weekly chart reinforces the bullish daily view with price trading well above all SMAs and the SMA200 sloping upward. The RSI at 64.60 provides room for further upside without being overbought. The positive MACD histogram confirms steady momentum. The 52-week position at 98.2% reflects a stock trading near its highs, which can be a sign of strength. The main consideration is that extended rallies can face profit-taking, so watching volume on pullbacks is important.
