Triangle in Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments has been consolidating for almost a year, but now there could be signs of a pending move.
The first pattern on today’s weekly chart is the series of higher lows since October as prices remained below roughly $184. The result is an ascending triangle, a potential bullish pattern that TXN could be trying to escape.
Second, Average True Range tightened to the narrowest since early 2022. Will the squeeze give way to price expansion?
Next, this week brought a lower low than last week and a higher high. That kind of outside candle could suggest buyers are getting active.
Finally, the 10-week simple moving average (SMA) is roughly equivalent to the 50-day SMA. Notice how it’s rising and starting to follow TXN higher -- a potential sign of a bullish intermediate-term trend.
