Bottom line
SHW Technical Analysis Summary
SHW displays a mixed technical picture across daily and weekly timeframes. On the daily chart, price trades below the SMA20 (333.30) and SMA200 (331.88) but above the SMA50 (317.83), reflecting conflicting short and long-term signals. RSI at 49.6 is neutral, and the negative MACD histogram (-1.98) indicates bearish near-term momentum. The weekly view shows price above SMA20 and SMA200 but below the SMA50 (336.40), with a positive MACD histogram (3.43) suggesting improving momentum. The stock sits at 44% of its 52-week range, not at extreme levels. Key support is at 289.86 (60-day and 52-week low), and resistance at 353.67 (20-day and 60-day high). A break above 353.67 would signal renewed bullish momentum, while a break below 289.86 could indicate further downside risk.

Daily (July 14, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 328.50 is below SMA20 (333.30) and SMA200 (331.88), but above SMA50 (317.83). The SMA20 and SMA200 are both above SMA50, indicating a conflicting alignment. Short-term price action has been bearish relative to the 20-day average, while the medium-term trend through the SMA50 remains supportive.
- Momentum
- Neutral to bearish. RSI14 at 49.57 sits at the exact midpoint of the neutral range, showing no directional conviction. MACD at 4.69 is below its signal line at 6.67 with a negative histogram of -1.98, indicating bearish momentum in the near term. The MACD histogram has been declining, suggesting increasing bearish pressure.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 8.78 (2.67% of price) reflects typical daily ranges for a large-cap stock. Bollinger Bands (310.91 to 355.69) are moderately wide with price near the lower half of the band range, consistent with the current bearish short-term bias.
- Volume
- Below average. Latest volume of 1,486,230 is 54.4% of the 20-period average (2,732,582), indicating reduced participation. Low volume during the pullback suggests a lack of aggressive selling pressure, which could limit downside.
Assessment
The daily chart shows a mixed structure with neutral momentum. Price is caught between the SMA50 below and SMA20/SMA200 above, creating a tight range. RSI neutrality reflects the lack of clear directional bias. The negative MACD histogram warns of growing bearish momentum, but below-average volume during the decline suggests hesitation from sellers. A decisive move above the SMA20 (333.30) would improve the near-term outlook, while a break below the SMA50 (317.83) would weaken the structure.
Weekly (July 6, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 333.99 is above SMA20 (323.97) and SMA200 (303.17) but below SMA50 (336.40). The SMA200 is sloping upward, confirming a long-term bullish trend. However, the SMA50 resistance at 336.40 has capped upside, and the SMA20/SMA50 are converging, suggesting a potential trend decision point.
- Momentum
- Improving. RSI14 at 51.72 is just above the neutral 50 level, leaning slightly bullish. MACD at -1.36 is below the signal line at -4.79 but the histogram at 3.43 is positive and rising, indicating that bearish momentum is fading and a potential bullish cross is developing.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 19.96 (5.97% of price) reflects normal weekly ranges. The Bollinger Bands (289.97 to 357.97) are moderately wide, with price in the middle of the range.
- Volume
- Near average. Weekly volume of 8,819,600 is 88.4% of the 20-week average (9,981,190), indicating normal participation levels.
Assessment
The weekly chart shows a stock in transition. While the long-term SMA200 uptrend is intact, price is struggling with the SMA50 resistance. The improving MACD histogram provides a constructive signal, suggesting selling pressure is diminishing. The converging SMAs point to an impending directional move. A weekly close above 336.40 (SMA50) would be a bullish development, while a close below 323.97 (SMA20) would indicate renewed weakness.
