Is PLTR near its 200-week EMA?
No. PLTR is 91.5% above its 200-week EMA ($192.60 against $100.57, 5.0 weekly ATRs above) at the scan of 21 Oct 2026. Extended above the 200-week: price is more than four weekly ATRs above the 200-week EMA, in a rising long-term trend. It has not touched its 200-week EMA since the line could first be measured in Jul 2024 (118 weeks); the closest its weekly lows came was 20.7% above it, in Jun 2026. The 50-week EMA is $156.21 (price +23.3% from it) and the weekly DeMarker is 0.88, overbought.
What the numbers say
The 200-week EMA itself is up 422.1% over two years, a steep long-term climb. Weekly closes have been above the line on 100% of the 118 weeks measured, so a touch has been rare. The weekly DeMarker has risen from 0.73 four weeks ago to 0.88.
Every touch of the 200-week EMA since Jul 2024
From 118 weeks of weekly bars. A touch is a week whose low reached the 200-week EMA after 13 weeks above it. Each row shows how deep the lows went in the 13 weeks after, whether a weekly close fell below the line within four weeks, and where price closed 13 and 52 weeks later, against the EMA at the touch.
No fresh touch of the 200-week EMA since 22 Jul 2024. A touch counts when a weekly low reaches the line after 13 weeks whose lows all stayed above it.

How to read the 200-week zone
The Desk's Portfolio Builder reads three things together: the 50-week EMA above the 200-week, the 200-week EMA rising at least 8% over two years, and price within one weekly ATR of the 200-week line. PLTR does not meet all three right now: price is more than four weekly ATRs above the 200-week EMA, in a rising long-term trend. The weekly DeMarker adds the momentum read: at 0.88 it is overbought now. This is a long-term, no-leverage way of reading a chart, not a signal to act on.
