Bottom line

NET Technical Analysis Summary

Cloudflare Inc. (NET) is in a strong uptrend on both timeframes, trading just below its 52-week high of 305.00. The daily chart shows a bullish alignment with price at 292.96 above SMA20 (274.82), SMA50 (253.92), and SMA200 (214.44), RSI14 at 64.62, and a positive MACD histogram at 1.46. The weekly chart is equally bullish with price at 278.98 above SMA20 (227.19), SMA50 (212.19), and SMA200 (120.08), RSI14 at 64.05, and a firmly positive MACD. The stock pulled back 2.78% on the latest completed session from the intraday high near 305.00 on above-average volume, but the broader trend remains intact. Key support is at 274.82 (SMA20), 250.69 (20-day low), and 185.75 (60-day low). Key resistance is at 305.00 (20-day, 60-day, and 52-week high). A decisive close above 305.00 would extend the uptrend to new highs, while a close below the SMA20 would signal a pause in the advance.

Daily (August 5, 2026)

Trend
Bullish. Price at 292.96 is above SMA20 (274.82), SMA50 (253.92), and SMA200 (214.44), with a fully ascending SMA alignment that confirms a strong uptrend. The stock is trading near the top of its range just below the 52-week high of 305.00, and the 2.78% pullback on the latest completed session appears to be a normal pause within the broader advance.
Momentum
Bullish. RSI14 at 64.62 is above the 50 midline and approaching, but not yet in, overbought territory below 70. MACD line at 10.41 is above the signal at 8.94 with a positive histogram of 1.46, confirming that momentum is strong and still expanding. The elevated RSI suggests the move is extended in the near term, but there is no confirmed bearish divergence.
Volatility
Moderate to elevated. ATR14 at 14.91 (5.09% of price) reflects the wider daily swings of a high-growth stock. Bollinger Bands (255.31 to 294.32) are wide, with price near the upper band, consistent with a strong uptrend and above-average daily ranges.
Volume
Above average. Latest volume of 3,960,700 is 128.8% of the 20-period average (3,075,005), with the elevated participation coming on the latest down session, suggesting some profit taking near the highs.

Assessment

The daily chart shows a strong uptrend with price above all three key moving averages and near the 52-week high of 305.00. RSI14 at 64.62 and a positive, expanding MACD histogram confirm solid momentum, and the 5-session return of +8.35% reflects the recent acceleration. The 2.78% decline on the latest completed session came on above-average volume, a sign of profit taking near resistance rather than a reversal. The immediate test is a close above 305.00. Below that, SMA20 at 274.82 is the first support, with the 20-day low at 250.69 the next reference. A close below the SMA20 would be the first sign that the short-term advance has stalled.

Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)

Trend
Bullish. Price at 278.98 is above SMA20 (227.19), SMA50 (212.19), and SMA200 (120.08), with all three averages ascending and SMA20 above SMA50 above SMA200. The weekly close sits in the upper portion of the weekly range, consistent with a persistent uptrend that has more than doubled the stock over the past year.
Momentum
Bullish. RSI14 at 64.05 is in bullish territory with room before overbought. MACD line at 19.17 is above the signal at 13.48 with a positive histogram of 5.70, confirming that weekly momentum remains firmly positive and still building.
Volatility
Moderate to elevated. ATR14 at 28.89 (10.36% of price) reflects the wide weekly ranges of a growth stock in a strong trend. Bollinger Bands (168.94 to 285.45) are broad, with price in the upper half of the band, consistent with the advance.
Volume
Slightly below average. Weekly volume of 15,416,300 is 80.0% of the 20-week average (19,276,150), indicating the rally has not required unusually heavy participation to continue.

Assessment

The weekly timeframe confirms a strong uptrend. Price is above all three key weekly averages with a bullish RSI and a firmly positive MACD, and the 5-week return of +17.59% shows the advance is accelerating. The weekly series ends with the completed week starting July 27, 2026; the push toward the 305.00 area seen on the daily chart belongs to the current week, which is still in progress. As long as price holds above the weekly SMA20 (227.19), the medium-term uptrend remains intact, with a weekly close above the 52-week high of 293.80 needed to confirm the next leg higher.

Scenarios

NET Technical Scenarios

Conditions, invalidation triggers, and what to watch for each scenario.

Bullish

Trigger

A daily close above the 52-week high of 305.00 on above-average volume, followed by a weekly close above 293.80, would confirm the next leg higher.

Invalidation

A daily close below the SMA20 (274.82) would signal that the short-term advance has stalled.

What to watch

Daily RSI holding above 60, the daily MACD histogram continuing to expand, and volume staying elevated on up days. Company items to watch include quarterly revenue growth, customer and usage-based billing trends, and profitability guidance.

Range-Bound

Trigger

Price oscillates between the SMA20 (274.82) and the 52-week high of 305.00 as the market consolidates the recent gains.

Invalidation

A decisive close beyond either boundary on above-average volume.

What to watch

RSI hovering between 50 and 70, the daily MACD flattening, and volume returning toward average. A fresh catalyst would likely be needed to break the range.

Bearish

Trigger

Price closes below the SMA20 (274.82) and then the 20-day low of 250.69, opening a test of the 60-day low at 185.75.

Invalidation

Price reclaims the SMA20 (274.82) and holds above it.

What to watch

Daily RSI falling below 55, the daily MACD histogram turning negative, and volume staying elevated on down days. Any fundamental disappointment, such as slower network expansion or reduced customer spend, would reinforce the bearish case.
