Cloudflare stalls near the highs, the model stays cautious

August 21, 2026

Our view last week

Cloudflare climbs 5.2% this week and closes back in on its all-time highs, the third attempt in recent weeks: the area has already been tested once, and our model's discipline waits for a pullback before adding weight. Under the surface the daily picture stays less convinced: money flow is slightly negative and buying volume stays thin, just 3.5% of turnover, a further contraction from last week. The trade remains a high-conviction case, with elevated volatility to manage with discipline.

This week's summary

Cloudflare pulls back after a third assault on its record highs in just a few weeks, and it does so decisively: the stock sheds over 7% in the latest week. The weekly structure stays solid, with moving averages aligned to the upside. Under the surface, though, the daily picture is more cautious: buying volume has dried up. For our model the position stays open and in profit, with the stop already moved to protect the gain.
