Bottom line

DAL Technical Analysis Summary

DAL shows a bullish trend on both daily and weekly timeframes. Price at 91.59 trades above all key moving averages and sits near the top of its 52-week range (91.5% position). The daily RSI at 61.09 with a positive MACD histogram (0.28) shows the July pullback has reversed, and the weekly RSI at 63.16 with a positive MACD histogram (0.59) keeps the longer-term uptrend intact. Key resistance is the 20-period high of 91.97 and the 52-week high of 95.44. Key support is the SMA20 of 86.50 and the 20-period low of 80.64. A sustained close above 95.44 would confirm a breakout to new highs; a break below 86.50 would suggest the pullback has resumed.

Daily (August 3, 2026)

Trend
Bullish. Price at 91.59 trades above SMA20 (86.50), SMA50 (84.95), and SMA200 (70.71). The moving averages are in a bullish alignment with SMA20 above SMA50 above SMA200, confirming the uptrend resumed after the July pullback.
Momentum
Bullish. RSI14 at 61.09 is in bullish territory and below the overbought threshold of 70. MACD at 0.92 with signal at 0.64 and a positive histogram of 0.28 confirms upside momentum has returned after the recent corrective phase.
Volatility
Moderate. ATR14 at 2.86 (3.12% of price) reflects typical daily movement for an airline stock. Bollinger Bands (82.12 to 90.89) show price pressing against the upper band, consistent with the recent rally.
Volume
Below average. Latest volume of 5,477,100 is 79.7% of the 20-period average (6,873,755), indicating participation slightly below the recent norm during the rally.

Assessment

The daily chart shows renewed upside momentum after the July pullback. Price has reclaimed the SMA20 (86.50) and moved back toward the 52-week high of 95.44, sitting at 91.5% of the 52-week range. The positive MACD histogram and RSI at 61.09 support further upside as long as price holds above the SMA20. A close above the 20-period high of 91.97 would put the 95.44 resistance in focus.

Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)

Trend
Bullish. Price at 87.44 trades above SMA20 (77.29), SMA50 (68.92), and SMA200 (49.90). All moving averages are sloping upward in a bullish alignment, confirming a strong medium-to-long-term uptrend.
Momentum
Bullish. RSI14 at 63.16 is in bullish territory and below the overbought threshold of 70. MACD at 6.02 with signal at 5.43 and a positive histogram of 0.59 confirms bullish momentum is intact on the weekly scale.
Volatility
Elevated. ATR14 at 6.11 (6.99% of price) reflects above-average weekly ranges, consistent with the strong uptrend and recent sharp price swings.
Volume
Below average. Weekly volume of 30,755,400 is 70.6% of the 20-week average (43,596,190), indicating participation below the recent norm.

Assessment

The weekly chart confirms a strong bullish trend. Price is up roughly 99.6% over the past 52 weeks and trades well above all key moving averages. RSI at 63.16 has room before reaching overbought levels, and the positive MACD histogram keeps momentum on the bullish side. The July pullback stopped above the SMA20 (77.29), and the weekly structure remains constructive.
