INTC | Intel Rides The Uptrend — Eyes On The Buy-Side Liquidity!Intel CorporationBATS:INTCBigBeluga By analyzing the #Intel (INTC) chart on the Daily timeframe, we can see that price remains firmly within a strong uptrend, having printed a clean series of bullish BOS on its way up. As long as price holds above its Protected Low, the higher-timeframe bias stays firmly bullish. 📊 Daily Timeframe On the Daily, the structure is textbook bullish. Notice that before printing the most recent BOS, price pulled back and reacted cleanly from the Order Block below — using it as fuel to launch the next leg higher. That's exactly the behavior we want to see in a healthy trend. Right now, my expectation is for a similar rotation: price dips to grab the liquidity resting below, reacts from the lower Order Block ($104.97 – $111.35), and then pushes higher to target the buy-side liquidity (BSL) resting overhead at $142.53. The whole bullish thesis stays valid as long as price holds above the Protected Low at $98.16 — a decisive break below that level would be the first real warning that the trend is at risk. ⏱️ 4H / 1H Timeframe Across the lower timeframes — the 4H and 1H — the picture is fully aligned with the Daily. The same Protected Low at $98.16 holds as the key structural level on those frames too, meaning all timeframes are telling one consistent story: buyers remain in control, and dips into the Order Block ($104.97 – $111.35) are opportunities rather than threats until that low breaks. 🎯 The Bias My base case is a corrective dip into the lower Order Block ($104.97 – $111.35) to sweep the liquidity below, followed by a bullish reaction that carries price up toward the BSL at $142.53. In my view, as long as INTC holds above the Protected Low ($98.16), every pullback into demand remains a buying opportunity rather than a reversal signal. 📰 Fundamental Backdrop The bullish structure is backed by one of the most remarkable turnaround stories in the market this year. Intel has been on a historic run — up several hundred percent in the first half of 2026 — driven almost entirely by renewed optimism around its Foundry business. That momentum has been reinforced by a wave of analyst upgrades: HSBC recently doubled its price target to $200 (from $100) after including the foundry business in its valuation, and another top analyst hiked their target by 100%, calling the foundry story "too good to ignore." Major AI-chip foundry interest tied to names like Google, Apple, and SpaceX has kept the narrative alive. That said, the stock is not without risk — it now trades at a rich valuation, recently pulled back sharply on a broad semiconductor sell-off, and the next major catalyst is Q2 earnings on July 23, which could inject volatility in either direction. For now, though, price action and fundamentals are pointing the same way: higher. This analysis will be updated as the market evolves.
