PayPal stock slips 0.2% as ADX climbs and the buy signal stays in first place

August 21, 2026

Our view last week

On the daily chart, buyers are back in firm control of PayPal stock after last week's brief pause: 78% of volume is on the buy side, money flow stays strongly positive, and RSI climbs to 77, deep in overbought territory. The weekly picture asks for more caution though, with volumes contracting and an indecisive candle. In this technical analysis, PayPal keeps its open buy signal, ranking 2nd among the 145 US buy signals running, up 33% since entry.

This week's summary

After last week's push, PayPal stock is easing off: the weekly RSI slips to 68.8 from 77 seven days ago, while ADX climbs to 26.4 — the trend gaining conviction even as the pace cools. The week closes nearly flat (-0.2%), with volume contracting and an indecisive candle. The buy signal still ranks first among the 167 US Longs running, up 33% since entry, with the first management window just opened.
