Super Micro Computer stock price: Technical overview
Super Micro Computer (SMCI) is trading at $45.46, with momentum indicators giving mixed signals as it remains above a key moving average cluster. The 20-, 50-, 100- and 200-day SMAs are at approximately $44, $47, $45 and $41, with shorter-term averages providing nearby support, while the 50-day SMA at $47.39 acts as immediate resistance. The RSI (14) is 55.06, in neutral territory, suggesting neither overbought nor oversold conditions. The ADX (14) at 21.33 indicates modest trend strength.
The first level to monitor on the upside is the $53.52 pivot zone (R1). A sustained daily close above this level would bring the $65.51 area back into focus and could open the way towards higher resistance. The MACD is showing a buy signal at 0.25, supporting near-term momentum while price holds above the moving average cluster.
On the downside, initial support lies at the $47.42 classic pivot, followed by the 20-day SMA near $43.83. A move below the 200-day SMA around $40.90 could increase the risk of a decline towards $35.43 support, signalling a more significant technical breakdown (TradingView, 26 September 2025).
