The stock lies in the upper part of a wide and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break-up at the top trend line at $178.61 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising.Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 18.72% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $190.27 and $212.04 at the end of this 3-month period.

On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $170.79 and $161.41. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, February 20, 2024, and so far it has risen 4.73%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).
Amazon finds support from accumulated volume at $171.81 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
