The daily price of 374.50 sits below the SMA20 (390.61) but above the SMA50 (368.67) and SMA200 (264.45), with RSI14 cooling to a neutral 47.20. The weekly chart is more constructive, with price above all key moving averages and a positive MACD histogram (8.53), although the most recent completed week fell 6.54%.

What are the key support and resistance levels for HUM?

HUM key support levels are at 368.67 (SMA50), 355.81 (20-day low), and 239.09 (60-day low). Key resistance is at 428.88 (20-day, 60-day, and 52-week high). On the weekly chart, support sits near 348.10 (SMA200), 267.50 (SMA50), and 161.90 (20-week and 60-week low), with resistance also at 428.88.

Is HUM overbought or oversold based on RSI?

HUM RSI14 is 47.20 on the daily chart and 63.86 on the weekly chart. Neither timeframe is overbought or oversold; both sit in neutral-to-positive territory after the stock cooled from July overbought readings. The daily reading near 50 suggests the pullback has relieved the earlier overbought condition, while the weekly reading above 60 still reflects a constructive longer-term momentum picture.

What does the MACD signal for HUM?

The daily MACD shows the MACD line at 0.35 below the signal line at 6.20 with a negative histogram of -5.85, indicating short-term downside momentum. The weekly MACD shows the MACD line at 43.26 above the signal line at 34.73 with a positive histogram of 8.53, supporting the longer-term uptrend. The contrast between daily and weekly MACD is typical of a pullback within a larger uptrend.

Can technical analysis predict the HUM price?

No, technical analysis cannot reliably predict an exact future price. It identifies trends, momentum, and key price levels based on historical data to inform risk assessment. HUM price movements will depend on company fundamentals such as Medicare Advantage enrollment trends, medical cost ratios, regulatory changes, and broader healthcare policy developments. Technical analysis is one tool among many for understanding market conditions.

Multi-Timeframe Technical Dashboard

Comparing daily (2-year) and weekly (5-year) perspectives to identify aligned or conflicting signals.

Daily (August 3, 2026)

Trend: Mixed. Price at 374.50 is below the SMA20 (390.61) but above the SMA50 (368.67) and SMA200 (264.45). The SMA200 continues to slope upward, reflecting the longer-term recovery, while the recent pullback has carried price under the shorter-term average.
Momentum: Neutral. RSI14 at 47.20 has cooled from overbought back into the middle of its range. MACD at 0.35 with signal at 6.20 and a negative histogram of -5.85 indicates downside momentum is still in control on the daily scale.
Volatility: Moderate to elevated. ATR14 at 15.56 (4.16% of price) reflects wider than usual daily swings after the sharp advance and retreat. Bollinger Bands (363.82 to 417.40) are wide and price is trading below the middle band.
Volume: Slightly below average. Latest volume of 1,394,300 is about 92% of the 20-period average (1,519,255), showing limited participation during the rebound.

Assessment

The daily chart shows a pullback within a longer-term uptrend. Price peaked at 428.88 in mid-July and has since retraced below the SMA20, while the RSI has normalized near 50. The August 3 bounce of 2.92% suggests some short-term support, but the negative MACD histogram and below-average volume argue for caution until price reclaims the SMA20.

Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)

Trend: Mixed but constructive. Price at 363.86 is above the SMA20 (298.15), SMA50 (267.50), and SMA200 (348.10), though the most recent week fell 6.54%. The SMA200 has turned supportive after the stock reclaimed it during the rally, even as the averages are not yet in full bullish alignment.
Momentum: Positive but cooling. RSI14 at 63.86 has pulled back from overbought territory. MACD at 43.26 with signal at 34.73 and a positive histogram of 8.53 still favors upside on the weekly scale, although the histogram has shrunk from earlier in the move.
Volatility: Elevated. ATR14 at 27.33 (7.51% of price) reflects large weekly ranges consistent with both the strong directional move and the recent reversal.
Volume: Above average. Weekly volume of 11,548,300 is about 145% of the 20-week average (7,984,465), indicating elevated activity during the pullback week.

Assessment

The weekly chart retains a bullish structure: price remains above all key moving averages and the MACD histogram is positive. However, the 6.54% decline in the week of July 27, together with the daily breakdown below the SMA20, shows the move from the July high of 428.88 is being corrected. The setup favors range behavior between recent support and the July high until momentum stabilizes.
