Highlights

  • QCOM trades below key short- and medium-term moving averages, with only marginal support from the long-term trend.
  • Bearish momentum dominates as multiple indicators flash sell signals, but deeply oversold readings may limit further sharp downside.
  • Expected range for the coming week is $165.00–$180.00, with a likely consolidation unless support at $169.01 fails.

Short- and medium-term bearish pressure as long-term support holds

QCOM is trading at $171.40, positioned below the MA-20 ($191.72) and MA-50 ($207.37), but just above the MA-200 ($169.01), signaling persistent short- and medium-term bearish pressure with some long-term support nearby. The Ichimoku Kijun level at $201.29 is well above the current price and acts as immediate resistance. Near-term support is seen at the MA-200 ($169.01), while key support sits at the MA-100 ($172.30). Near-term resistance is defined by the MA-20 ($191.72), with the Ichimoku Kijun ($201.29) forming a key resistance cluster above.

Bearish momentum endures despite oversold levels and sharp weekly decline

Momentum is negative, with the MACD on D1 confirming a sell signal and ADX showing low trend strength. Oversold readings are present from the Stoch RSI and CCI, while the RSI is subdued at 37.34, all pointing to mounting selling exhaustion. BBP is strongly negative at -10.94, indicating sellers have dominated intraday momentum. Although the AO is neutral and some oscillators are oversold, bearish momentum persists, highlighting a divergence between momentum and oversold signals. Over the past week, QCOM has fallen $17.22 or 9.13% from the previous close of $188.62, marking a sharp decline to the very bottom of its weekly range, with volatility elevated at 12.43%. The week reflects a steady decline from recent highs.

Limited upside as strong sell signals outweigh support for reversal

For the coming week, the expected trading range is adjusted to $165.00–$180.00, keeping the range within a realistic 10% band around current price and well above year lows but far from the 52-week high. The probability of a price increase is very low (less than 20%), making a further decline more likely given the dominance of strong sell signals and only one supporting buy on W1 indicators. The baseline scenario is a sideways consolidation near current levels as oversold conditions may limit further downside. A bullish scenario would require a breakout above $172.30–$180.00, targeting a reversal toward $191.72, while a bearish scenario unfolds if support at $169.01 fails, exposing downside toward $165.00 and potentially reigniting broad selling pressure.

Previously it was reported that Qualcomm faced persistent bearish pressure with technical indicators signaling limited upside potential and heightened downside risk. This article builds on that outlook by highlighting the importance of monitoring sustained price action around long-term support, as a clear breach could amplify further downside for the stock.
