Bottom line
FFIV Technical Analysis Summary
FFIV (F5, Inc.) keeps a bullish long-term technical structure while it digests a sharp short-term pullback. The weekly trend remains up with price at 402.57 above SMA20 (360.11), SMA50 (312.43) and SMA200 (225.34), and the rising SMA200 confirms a durable multi-year uptrend. On the daily chart the stock retreated from the July high near 435.00, slipping below SMA20 (409.04) but holding above SMA50 (401.49) and SMA200 (311.30). Daily RSI14 at 51.96 has returned to neutral after the pullback, while weekly RSI14 at 64.18 has cooled from overbought. The daily MACD histogram is negative at -1.90, signaling short-term momentum has turned down, although the weekly MACD histogram remains positive at 1.98. The rebound on August 3 on above-average volume shows buying interest near the SMA50 zone. Key support sits at 366.93 (20-day low) and 340.69 (60-day low), with resistance at 435.00 (52-week high). A reclaim of SMA20 followed by a break above 435.00 would signal the uptrend resuming; a loss of 366.93 would shift the picture to range-bound or corrective.

Daily (August 3, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 406.35 is below SMA20 (409.04) after falling from the 435.00 high, but it remains above SMA50 (401.49) and SMA200 (311.30). The bullish SMA alignment built during the advance since May 2026 was broken at the 20-day level, leaving near-term direction unresolved within a larger uptrend.
- Momentum
- Neutral. RSI14 at 51.96 is back near the 50 midline after the pullback from overbought levels. MACD (-0.85) is below the signal line (1.05) with a negative histogram at -1.90, showing short-term momentum has rolled over while the longer-term trend stays up.
- Volatility
- Moderate to elevated. ATR14 at 16.26 (4.00% of price) reflects wider daily swings around the pullback. Bollinger Bands (381.91 to 436.17) are wide, with price trading near the middle band after spending time in the upper half earlier in the advance.
- Volume
- Above average. Latest volume of 1,040,700 is 153.5% of the 20-period average (677,940), showing higher participation on the August 3 rebound.
Assessment
The daily chart is in a corrective phase within a longer uptrend. Price closed below SMA20 but held above SMA50, and the above-average volume rebound on August 3 indicates buyers defended support. A sustained move back above SMA20 (409.04) would improve the near-term outlook, while a close below SMA50 (401.49) would open the path toward the 20-day low at 366.93.
Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Bullish. Price at 402.57 is above SMA20 (360.11), SMA50 (312.43) and SMA200 (225.34). All three averages are in bullish alignment with SMA200 rising, confirming a durable long-term uptrend that remains intact after the pullback.
- Momentum
- Positive but cooling. RSI14 at 64.18 has eased out of overbought territory after the strong rally. MACD (31.69) is above the signal line (29.71) with a positive histogram at 1.98, confirming momentum on the longer timeframe is still constructive.
- Volatility
- Elevated. ATR14 at 27.87 (6.92% of price) reflects the wide weekly ranges that accompanied both the advance toward 435.00 and the subsequent pullback.
- Volume
- Above average. Weekly volume of 5,560,900 is 159.8% of the 20-week average (3,479,340), with higher participation during the recent volatility.
Assessment
The weekly chart confirms the long-term uptrend, with price well above rising moving averages and the SMA200 sloping upward. The pullback from the 435.00 high has cooled weekly RSI from overbought to 64.18 while the MACD histogram stays positive. As long as price holds above SMA20 (360.11), the weekly structure favors higher prices over time.
