Ongoing monopoly and shareholder focus drive positive sentiment

ASML remains in focus as the company maintains its effective monopoly in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography systems, a key technology for next-generation chip production. Management recently reiterated its commitment to shareholder returns through dividends and share buybacks. Anticipated demand for advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment also plays a supportive role.

Overbought signals warn as bullish momentum tests resistance

Bullish momentum is strong, with ASML trading well above all key moving averages and dynamic support marked by the Ichimoku Kijun at €965.20; resistance emerges around the MA-50. Technical signals are positive: the MACD and ADX confirm upward momentum (though trend strength remains moderate at an ADX of 15.92), Bull/Bear Power shows buyers firmly in control, and the Awesome Oscillator is green. However, multiple overbought readings — RSI at 76.27, CCI at 229.13, and a maxed-out Stochastic RSI of 100 — suggest an elevated risk of reversal or near-term consolidation. Today's price action saw a gap down on the open, with moderate volatility and the price sitting near the session’s midpoint.

High odds of consolidation as bullish momentum persists

For the next five sessions, the expected volatility band remains between €1,052.10 and €1,074.80. Weekly trend indicators (RSI, ADX, MACD, and MA-50) are aligned bullishly, so the probability of continued gains is very high, making a substantial correction unlikely. The baseline scenario is for sideways consolidation within this range, while a bullish move breaking €1,057.00 could signal an approach toward upper weekly levels. Alternatively, a dip below the Ichimoku Kijun at €965.20 could trigger corrective action toward deeper support, though current momentum still favors buyers.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees ASML maintaining strong bullish momentum driven by its dominant EUV technology position and shareholder-friendly policies. He notes the alignment of price above all key moving averages and ongoing supportive demand for advanced equipment. Short-term overbought signals may limit further upside for now, but macro and sentiment factors point to robust continued interest. Karapetjanc believes any consolidation is likely to be temporary given these underlying strengths. "The fundamental and market backdrop remain highly supportive for ASML, so I expect dips to attract buyers and the uptrend to resume soon."
