The Amazon stock price gained 0.746% on the last trading day (Tuesday, 9th May 2023), rising from $105.83 to $106.62. It has now gained 6 days in a row. It is not often that stocks manage to gain so many days in a row, and falls for a day or two should be expected. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.55% from a day low at $105.16 to a day high of $106.79. The price has risen in 8 of the last 10 days and is up by 3.95% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -4 million shares and in total, 43 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $4.60 billion. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

There are mixed signals in the stock today. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, April 27, 2023, and so far it has fallen -2.91%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). The Amazon stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term moving averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $104.49 and $102.63. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely.

Amazon finds support from accumulated volume at $105.45 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock is usually traded at a good volume, and with minor daily changes, the risk is considered to be low. During the last day, the stock moved $1.63 (1.55%) between high and low. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.92%.

Since the Amazon has been rising for 6 days in a row, the risk over the next couple of days has increased. We don't expect a major reaction as the stock is in very good shape technically, and therefore hold a positive evaluation despite the very short term risk.

Several short-term signals, along with a general good trend, are positive and we conclude that the current level may hold a buying opportunity as there is a fair chance for Amazon stock to perform well in the short-term.
