Oversold exhaustion emerges with sellers controlling intraday trend

Technically, TXN faces resistance at the Ichimoku Kijun level ($212.83) and remains under strong short- and medium-term selling pressure, as both MA-20 and MA-50 are above the current price. The asset trades near today's low after opening with a minor gap down, reflecting high volatility. On the daily chart, MACD is neutral and ADX shows an active trend, while oversold signals from RSI (38.29), Stochastic RSI, and CCI point to downside exhaustion. However, Bear Power confirms that sellers still dominate intraday action.

Rebound odds strengthen amid volatility and bullish weekly signals

Over the next five sessions, TXN is expected to consolidate within a typical volatility band of $190 to $205. The probability favors a rebound, with a less than 20% chance of further decline, based on three of four major weekly trend indicators flashing 'Buy'. A move above immediate resistance at $212.83 would open the path toward $205. If support at $190 fails, further downside could materialize, though technical signals currently suggest this is unlikely.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees ongoing short- and medium-term pressure on Texas Instruments despite increased institutional interest in the third quarter. He notes that technical signals show downside exhaustion, but sellers still dominate intraday action. Immediate resistance at $212.83 remains critical for any rebound scenario. "Base case remains range-bound action between $190 and $205; until $212.83 is broken, a defensive stance is warranted."

Previously it was reported that Texas Instruments was experiencing short-term selling pressure as it traded below its 20-day moving average but remained above its 50- and 200-day moving averages, suggesting underlying medium- and long-term support. Momentum indicators presented a mixed outlook, with MACD and ADX remaining strong while RSI and several oscillators signaled oversold conditions, indicating a potential for a technical bounce despite persistent intraday volatility and downside pressure.
