Mediterranean expansion and dividend hike as deal awaits ratification

Chevron has secured exploration rights for four offshore blocks south of Crete and the Peloponnese in Greece by signing lease agreements that grant a 70% operated stake alongside HELLENiQ ENERGY, pending Greek Parliament ratification. These agreements follow a government tender completed within a year and bolster the company’s Mediterranean expansion. In addition, Chevron increased its quarterly dividend to $1.78 per share, with future payment scheduled for March 10, 2026, further supporting its shareholder return strategy.

Momentum diverges as buyers test technical resistance

Technically, Chevron trades above all key moving averages, with closest dynamic support at the Ichimoku Kijun ($170.87) and resistance near the MA-50 and psychological round levels above $182. Momentum indicators are largely positive: the MACD and ADX confirm strong bullish sentiment, while the RSI reads 70.30, touching the overbought boundary. The Stochastic RSI signals an oversold setup, and the CCI remains bullish. Persistent buyer dominance is noted by Bull/Bear Power, though mixed oscillator signals reflect short-term caution as the price tests the lower end of the intraday range after a minor opening gap.

Bullish bias prevails as upside breakout risk increases

In the coming week, Chevron is expected to trade within the $182.00 to $188.00 volatility band relative to current levels. The probability of an upward move is high, with over 80% likelihood, making declines much less probable. The base scenario anticipates consolidation within a sideways corridor between dynamic support and resistance. A bullish breakout above $188.00 could occur if momentum is renewed, while a drop below $182.00 may expose support near the Ichimoku Kijun at $170.87.

Anton Kharitonov, Traders Union analyst, sees Chevron maintaining a firm bullish bias while trading above major moving averages. He notes the company’s positive news on Greek exploration rights and a higher dividend but points out caution signals in momentum and overbought readings. Base case remains sideways, with risks of a pullback if $182.00 fails. "Despite robust fundamentals, I remain defensive here — only a clear breakout above $188.00 would shift my stance to bullish."

Previously it was reported that Chevron Corporation remains in a bullish structure, trading firmly above key moving averages and dynamic support, with institutional buying and dividend growth underpinning positive sentiment. While MACD and ADX confirm strong momentum and buyer dominance, mixed oscillator signals and proximity to resistance suggest potential for further gains, but consolidation may occur if the price fails to sustain above the $185 level.
