Highlights

AAPL maintains a strong bullish trend, trading well above key moving averages on the weekly chart.
Short-term oscillators indicate overbought conditions and buyer exhaustion, causing recent price consolidation near the upper range.
AAPL is likely to trade between $293.00 and $313.00 over the next week, with a 75% probability of further upside unless momentum wanes below $293.00.

Record quarter and expanded buybacks as demand and regulatory issues shape flows

Apple announced a new $100 billion share buyback authorization, further extending its capital return program. The company reported record March quarter revenue of $111.2 billion, supported by strong iPhone 17 demand and an all-time high Services segment revenue of $31 billion. Apple also raised its quarterly dividend to $0.27 per share, with the next payment scheduled for May 14, 2026, and extended a multi-billion dollar chip supply partnership with Broadcom through 2031. On the regulatory front, Apple faced an adverse EU decision regarding 'gatekeeper' platform regulations.

Positive momentum signals and overbought readings as buyer strength persists this week

On the weekly chart, momentum remains positive as the MACD and ADX both signal a buy. The RSI is trending higher and sits in bullish territory, although the Commodity Channel Index and Bull/Bear Power indicate overbought conditions, suggesting buyer dominance is strong but there may be short-term exhaustion. Stochastic RSI shows a neutral reading, reflecting a pause in upside momentum, while the Awesome Oscillator does not currently confirm the trend. Weekly support is seen at $293.00, with resistance at $313.00, and weekly volatility is 6.14%.

Consolidation expected with upside breakout risk as strong signals continue next week

Over the next 5 trading days, AAPL is expected to trade within a $293.00 to $313.00 range, based on typical weekly volatility. With three out of four major indicators (RSI, ADX, MACD) on a buy or strong buy signal and only the CCI showing overbought conditions, the baseline scenario is for continued consolidation near the highs. A bullish breakout above $313.00 could extend gains toward new highs, while a move below $293.00 would indicate momentum fading and possible further profit-taking toward moving average support.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, notes that Apple remains firmly in a bullish structure this week, supported by record-setting earnings and a massive new $100 billion share buyback announcement. He believes Apple’s capital return strategy, booming iPhone and Services revenues, and extended Broadcom partnership are driving strong investor sentiment and keeping the price well above key moving averages. The analyst sees positive momentum confirmed by major indicators, though acknowledges some short-term overbought signals point to a pause or mild consolidation within the $293.00–$313.00 range. Looking ahead, Karapetjanc expects the market to offer multiple setups as buyers retain control and a breakout above resistance could ignite fresh highs. "Apple’s robust fundamentals and persistent upside momentum make me confident further growth will be realized if $313.00 is taken out in the coming week."

Previously it was reported that Apple’s long-term outlook remained constructive, supported by increased chip supply stability and ongoing ecosystem growth, despite regulatory challenges in Europe. With fresh record revenues, an expanded buyback program, and bullish weekly technical signals, Apple’s prevailing scenario is consolidation near highs, making a decisive breakout above $313.00 a key level for traders to monitor in the coming days.
