Bottom line
SONY Technical Analysis Summary
SONY is rebounding from its 52-week low of 19.32 and trades at 22.35, above SMA20 (21.58) and SMA50 (21.25) but still below SMA200 (23.33) on the daily chart. The weekly chart shows a strong recovery week with price above SMA20 (20.99) and SMA200 (20.27) while remaining below SMA50 (24.19). Daily RSI14 at 56.99 and weekly RSI14 at 56.54 are neutral-bullish, and the MACD histogram is positive on both timeframes after a recent momentum turn. The stock sits at about 27% of its 52-week range, so the immediate resistance is the 20/60-period high at 23.98 together with SMA200 at 23.33, while support rests at the daily SMA50 (21.25), the 20-day low at 20.58, and the 52-week low at 19.32. A close above 23.98 would signal a broader trend turn, while a loss of the daily SMA20 at 21.58 would suggest the rebound is stalling.

Comparing daily (2-year) and weekly (5-year) perspectives to identify aligned or conflicting signals.
Daily (August 4, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 22.35 is above SMA20 (21.58, +3.55%) and SMA50 (21.25, +5.20%) but below SMA200 (23.33, -4.19%). The SMA20 sits above the SMA50, a short-term bullish alignment, while the SMA200 remains above price, reflecting that the longer-term downtrend has not yet fully reversed.
- Momentum
- Neutral-bullish. RSI14 at 56.99 is in neutral territory with a slight bullish tilt, well below the 70 overbought line. MACD at 0.51 is above the signal line at 0.36 with a positive histogram of 0.15, confirming momentum has turned upward after the recent rebound off the low.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 0.57 (2.57% of price) reflects a normal daily range for a large-cap consumer electronics ADR. Bollinger Bands run from 19.78 to 23.38, and the close at 22.35 sits between the middle and upper bands after the recent advance.
- Volume
- Near average. Latest volume of 5,166,011 is about 0.96 times the 20-day average of 5,373,126, showing typical participation during the current rebound.
Assessment
The daily chart shows a recovering structure. Price has climbed from the 52-week low of 19.32 to 22.35, reclaiming SMA20 and SMA50, and the positive MACD histogram supports the bounce. The RSI at 56.99 leaves room before overbought conditions. The main challenge is SMA200 at 23.33 and the 20/60-period high at 23.98, which together form the immediate resistance zone. Support sits at SMA50 (21.25), then the 20-day low at 20.58.
Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Mixed. The weekly series ends the week of July 27, 2026 at 23.26, before the first August sessions. Price is above SMA20 (20.99, +10.84%) and SMA200 (20.27, +14.74%) but below SMA50 (24.19, -3.86%), reflecting a recovery within a longer-term range after the decline from the 2025 high.
- Momentum
- Neutral-bullish. Weekly RSI14 at 56.54 is in neutral territory with upward tilt. MACD at -0.54 is above the signal line at -0.89 with a positive histogram of 0.35, showing that downside momentum has faded even though the MACD line remains below zero.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 1.38 (5.95% of price) reflects normal weekly ranges for this stock. Bollinger Bands run from 19.16 to 22.81, and price at 23.26 finished above the upper band, a sign of a strong momentum thrust that can sometimes be followed by a short-term pause.
- Volume
- Well above average. Weekly volume of 43,702,200 is about 1.52 times the 20-week average of 28,694,405, showing strong participation during the rebound week.
Assessment
The weekly chart confirms the daily recovery. Price at 23.26 sits above SMA20 and SMA200 with a positive MACD histogram, and the +10.87% weekly advance came on well above-average volume. The stock has bounced from the 52-week low of 19.32 but remains below the declining SMA50 at 24.19, so the recovery is not yet confirmed as a full trend reversal. Resistance is at SMA50 (24.19), with the 60-week high at 30.34 further above. The weekly series does not include the August 3 and August 4 sessions, so the next completed weekly bar may show slight changes.
