Bottom line

TXN Technical Analysis Summary

TXN (Texas Instruments) shows a corrective pullback within a longer-term uptrend at the August 4, 2026 cutoff. The stock trades at $283.63, below SMA20 ($287.29) and SMA50 ($295.71) but well above SMA200 ($225.26). Daily RSI14 at 48.52 is neutral, while the MACD histogram at -0.88 is negative, reflecting weak near-term momentum after the drop from the 52-week high of $332.33. A strong August 4 bounce of 5.4% on above-average volume has steadied price near the $264.74 support zone. On the weekly timeframe the trend remains bullish with price above all major averages, though the weekly MACD histogram has turned negative, showing momentum rolling over. Key support is $264.74 (20- and 60-day low), followed by the 200-day average near $225.26. Key resistance is $287.29 (SMA20), $295.71 (SMA50), then $313.73 (20-day high) and $332.33 (52-week high). A close back above SMA50 would restore the short-term uptrend, while a break below $264.74 would target the 200-day average.

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

Daily (August 4, 2026)

Trend
Mixed. Price at 283.63 is below SMA20 (287.29) and SMA50 (295.71) but well above SMA200 (225.26). The averages keep a bullish long-term order with the 200-day average far below, but the pullback from the 332.33 high has pushed price under the 20-day and 50-day averages, leaving the near-term structure corrective.
Momentum
Neutral. RSI14 at 48.52 sits just below the 50 midline, with no overbought or oversold reading. MACD at -5.76 is below its signal at -4.88 with a negative histogram of -0.88, showing weak near-term momentum that is beginning to compress after the sharp decline.
Volatility
Moderate. ATR14 at 13.16 (4.64% of price) reflects active daily swings for a large-cap semiconductor name. Bollinger Bands (263.35 to 311.23) are wide, with the close near the lower third of the band after the recent selloff.
Volume
Slightly above average. Latest volume of 8,961,937 is 109.9% of the 20-period average (8,158,562), showing elevated participation on the August 4 rebound.

Assessment

The daily chart is in a corrective phase after a strong rally from the 52-week low of 150.20 to the high of 332.33. Price fell to a 264.74 low and bounced 5.4% back toward the 20-day average. With the close below SMA20 and SMA50 but far above SMA200, the medium-term uptrend remains intact while the short-term trend consolidates. The 264.74 zone is the key support; a close below it would open the 200-day average near 225.26.

Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)

Trend
Bullish. The completed weekly close at 275.74 is above SMA20 (269.24), SMA50 (217.64), and SMA200 (179.75), with the averages in bullish order. The long-term uptrend remains intact, though price is trading much closer to the 20-week average than during the rally to 332.33.
Momentum
Neutral. RSI14 at 54.96 is above 50 but has retreated from overbought. MACD at 21.89 is below its signal at 25.65 with a negative histogram of -3.76, signaling that weekly momentum has rolled over from the prior uptrend.
Volatility
Elevated. ATR14 at 23.62 (8.57% of price) reflects the wide weekly ranges of a strongly trending semiconductor stock. Bollinger Bands (185.61 to 352.87) are very wide, consistent with the large move from the 52-week low to the high.
Volume
Above average. Weekly volume of 48,519,500 is 121.9% of the 20-week average (39,798,105), showing active participation during the pullback.

Assessment

The weekly chart remains in a long-term uptrend with price above every major average, but momentum has turned down. The pullback from the all-time high of 332.33 has taken price from well above the 20-week average to near it, and the negative weekly MACD histogram flags a loss of upside momentum. The 20-week average near 269.24 is the first major support, with the 50-week average at 217.64 further below. The trend stays bullish as long as price holds above the rising 20-week average.
