Micron nearly flat (-0.5%): the sell signal keeps losing steam

August 21, 2026

Our view last week

Micron stock keeps accelerating: up 10.7% this week, with buying volume climbing to 91% and money flow turning positive again. It's the second straight week of a strong recovery, and the price is now boxed in between the 7-day high, in the 984 area, and the nearest support, in the 970.6 area. The Sell signal, live for 4 weeks, is looking shakier by the day — one of the memory stocks our technical analysis keeps a close eye on.

This week's summary

After two strong recovery weeks, Micron stock cools off: the week closes almost flat and sellers edge back ahead on volume. Under the surface, though, the decline keeps losing steam — the MACD histogram narrows for a second week, momentum turns positive again, and the ADX has fallen for six straight weeks. On the daily chart, the sequence of higher lows from the 738 area toward the 915 area keeps holding.
