Bottom line

ITW Technical Analysis Summary

ITW shows a bullish technical picture. On the daily timeframe, the price holds above all key moving averages with SMA20 above SMA50 above SMA200, and RSI at 62.05 remains below the overbought threshold. The daily MACD histogram has turned positive again, pointing to renewed upside momentum after a near-term pause. The weekly chart is clearly bullish with a stacked moving-average alignment, RSI at 65.04, and a positive MACD histogram. The main resistance sits at 301.92, which is both the 20-day and 60-day high and also the 52-week high. Support is at the 20-day low of 263.55 and the 60-day low of 240.59. A clean break above 301.92 would confirm continued strength, while a fall below 263.55 would suggest a loss of short-term momentum.

Daily (August 3, 2026)

Trend
Bullish. Price at 288.49 is above SMA20 (277.69), SMA50 (265.41), and SMA200 (259.60), with a stacked alignment of SMA20 above SMA50 above SMA200. The SMA200 is rising, confirming a solid medium-term uptrend.
Momentum
Neutral to bullish. RSI14 at 62.05 is in bullish territory and below the 70 overbought threshold. MACD at 6.46 with signal at 5.77 and a positive histogram of 0.68 confirms that upside momentum has resumed after flattening in the prior week.
Volatility
Moderate. ATR14 at 7.13 (2.47% of price) indicates average daily movement of about 2.5%. Bollinger Bands (260.42 to 294.96) show moderate width, with price sitting in the upper half of the range.
Volume
Below average. Latest volume of 1,183,500 is 75.6% of the 20-period average (1,565,400), indicating light participation on the latest up session.

Assessment

The daily chart shows a bullish structure with price above all key moving averages in a stacked alignment and a positive MACD histogram. RSI at 62.05 is approaching but not yet overbought, leaving room for further upside. Volume on the latest session was light, so confirmation of the recent recovery would be strengthened by an increase in participation.
