QUALCOMM Inc's Technical Indicators Summary
QCOM is exhibiting a bearish outlook as its current price remains well below key moving averages across all time frames, including the 200-day, indicating sustained downward pressure. Momentum indicators reinforce this view, with the MACD and CCI signaling selling conditions, while the RSI hovers near oversold levels, suggesting limited upward strength. The trend itself appears weak, as reflected by a subdued ADX, pointing to a lack of directional conviction. Meanwhile, volume trends measured by OBV align with the bearish sentiment, showing distribution rather than accumulation. Despite a low reading on the Bollinger Bands hinting at potential support, overall technical signals confirm a prevailing downtrend for QCOM at this time.
