Bottom line
WMB Technical Analysis Summary
WMB technical analysis as of the August 6, 2026 daily cutoff shows The Williams Companies in a pullback within a longer-term uptrend. Price at 71.76 on the daily chart is below SMA20 (72.91) and SMA50 (73.01) but still above SMA200 (67.96), keeping the long-term uptrend intact. RSI14 at 45.79 is below the 50 midline and the daily MACD histogram is negative at -0.14, reflecting corrective momentum after the decline from the 52-week high of 79.49. The weekly chart confirms the cooling: price at 71.54 is below the weekly SMA20 (73.24) but remains above the weekly SMA50 (66.39) and SMA200 (45.74), and the weekly MACD histogram has turned negative at -0.63. The first support is the 20-day and 60-day low of 68.52, which aligns with the SMA200 near 67.96. Resistance is at the 20-day high of 76.42 and the 60-day and 52-week high of 79.49. A hold above the 68.52 support cluster would keep the broader uptrend in place, while a break below it would point toward the 52-week low area near 54.10.

Daily (August 6, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed to corrective. Price at 71.76 is below SMA20 (72.91) and SMA50 (73.01) but above SMA200 (67.96). The short-term moving averages have flattened and price has pulled back from the 52-week high, although the close above SMA200 keeps the longer-term uptrend structure intact.
- Momentum
- Neutral to bearish. RSI14 at 45.79 is below the 50 midline, indicating momentum has cooled. The MACD line at -0.76 is below the signal line at -0.62, and the histogram at -0.14 is negative, showing the daily uptrend momentum has faded and a corrective phase is underway.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 2.00 (2.79% of price) reflects normal daily swings. Bollinger Bands (69.19 to 76.63) are moderately wide, and price at 71.76 is trading in the lower portion of the range near the lower band, consistent with the recent pullback.
- Volume
- Below average. Latest volume of 4,706,472 is 68.8% of the 20-period average (6,837,454), indicating the pullback has not been accompanied by heavy selling pressure.
Assessment
The daily chart shows a corrective pullback within a longer-term uptrend. Price has broken below the short-term moving averages but is holding above the SMA200 at 67.96, which together with the 20-day and 60-day low at 68.52 forms a support zone. RSI at 45.79 and a negative MACD histogram suggest momentum remains soft, so a test of the support area is plausible before any stabilization. The 252-day return of +25.49% and the 52-week position of 69.54% keep the longer-term structure constructive. A reclaim of SMA20 at 72.91 would be the first sign of stabilization, while a sustained break below 68.52 would open the door toward the 52-week low area.
Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 71.54 is below the weekly SMA20 (73.24) but above the weekly SMA50 (66.39) and well above the weekly SMA200 (45.74). The multi-year uptrend remains intact, but the weekly price has pulled back after reaching the 52-week high of 79.49.
- Momentum
- Neutral to bearish. RSI14 at 50.52 is right at the neutral level, showing the weekly uptrend momentum has stalled. The MACD line at 1.88 has fallen below the signal line at 2.51, and the histogram at -0.63 has turned negative, indicating a loss of upside momentum on the weekly timeframe.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 4.03 (5.63% of price) reflects normal weekly ranges for this midstream energy infrastructure stock. Bollinger Bands (68.83 to 77.66) are wide, and price is trading in the lower portion of the band range after the recent pullback.
- Volume
- Modestly above average. Weekly volume of 34,911,800 is 1.09 times the 20-week average (32,160,930), showing participation picked up during the pullback week.
Assessment
The weekly chart keeps the longer-term uptrend intact but shows momentum rolling over. Price remains above the weekly SMA50 at 66.39 and the SMA200 at 45.74, and the 252-week return of +235.15% reflects the strong multi-year advance. However, the MACD histogram at -0.63 has turned negative and RSI at 50.52 is neutral, indicating the weekly momentum that drove the run to 79.49 has faded. The weekly 20-week low at 68.82 is the immediate support to watch; holding it would preserve the bullish weekly structure, while a break below it would shift the weekly bias to corrective.
