Bottom line

ASML Technical Analysis Summary

ASML shows a corrective phase inside a longer-term uptrend at the August 5, 2026 cutoff. The daily close of 1678.22 is below SMA20 at 1721.29 and SMA50 at 1754.30 but above SMA200 at 1398.01, which keeps the long-term trend intact. Daily RSI14 at 47.00 is below neutral and the daily MACD histogram is negative at -6.65, showing fading near-term momentum after the pullback from the 1997.38 high. The weekly picture is still bullish with price at 1629.00 above every weekly average, though the weekly MACD histogram has also turned negative at -13.93. Immediate support is the 1530.64 20-day low, with the 1439.45 60-day low and SMA200 at 1398.01 further down. Resistance is the 1856.33 20-day high and the 1997.38 52-week high. A close back above SMA20 at 1721.29 would restore short-term strength, while a break below 1530.64 would deepen the correction.

Daily (August 5, 2026)

Trend
Mixed. Price at 1678.22 is below SMA20 (1721.29) and SMA50 (1754.30) but above SMA200 (1398.01). The averages remain in bullish order but the pullback from the 1997.38 high has pushed price under the shorter-term averages.
Momentum
Weak. RSI14 at 47.00 is below the neutral 50 level. MACD (-31.12) is below its signal (-24.48) with a negative histogram at -6.65, indicating fading momentum during the correction.
Volatility
Elevated. ATR14 at 83.32 (4.96% of price). Bollinger Bands (1565.29 to 1877.28) are wide with the close in the lower half of the range, reflecting the sharp recent swings.
Volume
Below average. Latest volume of 1,217,800 is 62.02% of the 20-period average (1,963,610), showing limited participation during the current rebound.

Assessment

The daily timeframe shows a corrective phase inside a longer-term uptrend. Price has fallen below the 20-day and 50-day averages and the MACD histogram is negative, but the stock remains well above SMA200 at 1398.01. The 1530.64 20-day low is the immediate support, with the 1439.45 60-day low and SMA200 further down. Resistance sits at the 1856.33 20-day high and the 1997.38 52-week high.

Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)

Trend
Bullish. The completed weekly close at 1629.00 is above SMA20 (1598.59), SMA50 (1304.36), and SMA200 (866.73), with the averages in bullish order and the longer-term uptrend intact.
Momentum
Neutral. RSI14 at 54.72 is above neutral but below the overbought threshold. MACD (132.96) is below its signal (146.89) with a negative histogram at -13.93, showing that upside momentum has weakened after the extended rally.
Volatility
Elevated. ATR14 at 151.92 (9.33% of price). Bollinger Bands (1229.10 to 1968.08) are wide with the close near the middle of the range.
Volume
Above average. Weekly volume of 12,646,300 is 137.09% of the 20-week average (9,224,795), reflecting active participation during a volatile week.

Assessment

The weekly timeframe remains bullish, with price above all key moving averages and the SMA200 sloping upward. However, the weekly MACD histogram has turned negative and the weekly close fell 7.17%, so the longer-term uptrend is facing a meaningful test. A close above the 1997.38 weekly high would signal resumption, while a break below the 1243.78 20-week low would weaken the longer-term structure.
