Bottom line

MPWR Technical Analysis Summary

MPWR (Monolithic Power Systems) shows a mixed near-term picture within a strong long-term uptrend. The daily chart has corrected from the 1711.48 high, with price at 1376.41 below the SMA20 (1396.65) and SMA50 (1507.46) but above the SMA200 (1180.70). The daily RSI at 47.73 is neutral-bearish, while the MACD histogram has just turned positive at +1.54, hinting at early momentum stabilization. On the weekly timeframe, the trend remains constructive with price above the SMA50 (1117.71) and SMA200 (719.57), though the weekly RSI at 52.32 is neutral and the MACD histogram is negative at -33.90. Key support sits at 1232.04 (20/60-day low), with resistance at 1396.65 (SMA20) and 1664.10 (20-day high). A sustained move above SMA20 would signal the correction is easing.

Daily (July 14, 2026)

Trend
Mixed. Price at 1376.41 is below SMA20 (1396.65) and SMA50 (1507.46) but above SMA200 (1180.70). The stock corrected from the 1711.48 high to a 1232.04 low, and the recent bounce from that low is still testing SMA20 resistance. The SMA200 continues to slope upward, confirming the longer-term uptrend remains intact.
Momentum
Neutral-bearish. RSI14 at 47.73 is below the 50 midline, indicating slightly bearish momentum. MACD line (-51.56) is below the signal line (-53.10) but the histogram has turned positive at +1.54, suggesting the negative momentum may be slowing.
Volatility
Elevated. ATR14 at 93.87 (6.82% of price) reflects above-average daily swings consistent with the correction from highs. Bollinger Bands (1198.86 to 1594.44) are wide, with price near the lower half after the pullback and recent bounce.
Volume
Below average. Latest daily volume of 786,136 is 64.8% of the 20-period average (1,214,012), suggesting reduced participation during the current consolidation phase.

Assessment

The daily chart is in a corrective phase after a strong rally. Price bounced from the 1232.04 low but remains below SMA20, indicating the correction may not be over yet. The MACD histogram turning positive is an early stabilization signal. A close above SMA20 (1396.65) would be the first step toward recovery, while a break below 1232.04 would suggest further downside.

Weekly (July 6, 2026 week)

Trend
Mixed-constructive. Price at 1352.74 is slightly below SMA20 (1366.57) but well above SMA50 (1117.71) and SMA200 (719.57). The SMA50 and SMA200 maintain upward slopes, confirming the long-term uptrend remains intact despite the recent pullback.
Momentum
Neutral. RSI14 at 52.32 is around the midline, indicating no clear directional bias on the weekly timeframe. MACD at 95.15 with the signal at 129.05 and a negative histogram at -33.90 suggests weekly momentum is decelerating from its earlier strength.
Volatility
Elevated. ATR14 at 156.56 (11.57% of price) reflects wide weekly ranges. Bollinger Bands (935.29 to 1797.85) on the weekly are extremely wide, reflecting the strong trending and volatile nature of the stock.
Volume
Above average. Weekly volume of 4,234,100 is 118.1% of the 20-week average (3,586,115), indicating continued participation during the pullback.

Assessment

The weekly chart shows the stock in a corrective phase within a powerful long-term uptrend. Price has pulled back from the 1711.48 high but remains above the key SMA50 and SMA200 levels. The neutral RSI and negative MACD histogram suggest the consolidation may continue. The long-term uptrend, driven by Monolithic Powers leadership in power management ICs for AI infrastructure and data centers, remains intact.
