Bottom line
WSM Technical Analysis Summary
WSM (Williams-Sonoma) is in a strong uptrend on both the daily and weekly timeframes. On the daily chart, price at 248.24 trades above SMA20 (228.46), SMA50 (222.17), and SMA200 (198.02), and the stock sits near the top of its 52-week range at a 94.60% position. RSI14 at 67.74 shows solid momentum that is approaching overbought territory. The daily MACD line at 6.19 is above its signal at 4.34 with a positive histogram at 1.85, confirming rising short-term momentum. The weekly chart reinforces the bullish view with price above SMA20 (202.63), SMA50 (196.91), and SMA200 (134.49), weekly RSI at 61.05, and a positive weekly MACD histogram at 2.92. Key resistance is at the 60-day and 52-week high of 252.99, while support sits at SMA20 (228.46) and the 20-day low (213.48). The main risk is a near-term pullback after the sharp advance, since daily RSI is elevated and price has closed above the upper Bollinger Band.

Daily (August 5, 2026)
- Trend
- Strongly bullish. Price at 248.24 is above SMA20 (228.46, +8.66%), SMA50 (222.17, +11.73%), and SMA200 (198.02, +25.36%). All three moving averages are sloping upward and are stacked in a bullish alignment. The stock has advanced sharply from a low near 165 within the past 60 sessions and is pressing against its 52-week high.
- Momentum
- Bullish but nearing overbought. RSI14 at 67.74 is above the 50 midline and approaching the 70 overbought threshold. MACD line at 6.19 is above the signal line at 4.34 with a positive histogram at 1.85 that is still expanding, indicating rising bullish momentum. An elevated RSI does not guarantee an immediate reversal, but it reduces the margin for further short-term gains.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 7.45 (3.00% of price) reflects a normal daily range for a large specialty retailer. Bollinger Bands (209.89 to 247.04) are reasonably wide, and price at 248.24 has closed slightly above the upper band, a sign of an extended short-term move.
- Volume
- Above average. Latest volume of 1,084,700 is 118.9% of the 20-period average (912,405), indicating active participation in the recent advance. Elevated volume on up sessions supports the breakout attempt near the highs.
Assessment
The daily chart shows Williams-Sonoma in a strong uptrend. The stock has rallied from roughly 165 to 248 over the past three months, reclaiming SMA20, SMA50, and SMA200, and is now testing the 252.99 high. MACD is positively aligned and expanding, and price is above all major moving averages. The near-term caution is that RSI at 67.74 is approaching overbought and price has moved above the upper Bollinger Band, so a short consolidation or pullback is possible. The broader trend stays constructive as long as price holds above SMA20 at 228.46.
Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Bullish. Price at 228.66 is above SMA20 (202.63, +12.85%), SMA50 (196.91, +16.12%), and SMA200 (134.49, +70.03%). The moving averages are in a bullish stack, and the weekly chart confirms the intermediate-term uptrend that the daily chart is showing.
- Momentum
- Bullish. RSI14 at 61.05 is above the 50 midline with room before overbought. MACD line at 10.68 is above the signal line at 7.77, with a positive histogram at 2.92 that continues to expand, reflecting strengthening medium-term momentum.
- Volatility
- Elevated. ATR14 at 16.32 (7.14% of price) reflects wide weekly ranges during the recent advance. Bollinger Bands (158.31 to 246.95) are wide, with price in the upper portion of the bands, consistent with a strong trend.
- Volume
- Below average. Weekly volume of 4,029,500 is 69.7% of the 20-week average (5,782,595), suggesting lighter participation in the latest completed week. The relative volume ratio comes from the calculation series only.
Assessment
The weekly chart confirms the intermediate-term uptrend. WSM has moved from near 150 to above 240 over the past year, and price now trades above the weekly SMA20, SMA50, and SMA200 with a positive MACD setup. The weekly RSI at 61.05 leaves room before overbought, while the daily chart is more extended. A sustained weekly close above the prior week high would keep the uptrend intact, while a loss of SMA20 at 202.63 would signal a broader pullback.
