RTX slips 5.9%, but the ADX has climbed for 7 weeks straight

August 21, 2026

Our view last week

RTX stock closes the week nearly flat, within a whisker of its record highs (just 1.8% away), with the weekly RSI above 70 and buyers still in control on the daily chart, close to 97% of the volume. But the weekly candle's body keeps thinning and buyer conviction is fading: the buy signal's push, now in its 8th week and up 20% since entry, is losing steam. Technical analysis of RTX stock updated for this week.

This week's summary

RTX slips 5.9% in a week that's still bullish but losing conviction: on the last bar sellers took over from buyers, and dominance collapsed after mixed rejection candles in the days before. The stock still trades firmly above its 50-week average, with the ADX climbing for 7 weeks straight: the trend keeps its footing even as the pace has slowed. The industrial sector, meanwhile, gave back 3.4% this week.
