Apple

The Apple stock price fell by -2.66% on the last day (Monday, 14th Mar 2022) from $154.73 to $150.62. and has now fallen 4 days in a row. During the day the stock fluctuated 2.68% from a day low at $150.10 to a day high of $154.12. The price has fallen in 8 of the last 10 days and is down by -8.78% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day by 11 million shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 108 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $16.31 billion.

On Feb 28, 2022 "JPMorgan Chase & Co." gave "$210.00" rating for AAPL. The price target was set to $165.12+0.2%.

The stock has broken the wide and falling short-term trend down. Firstly a stronger fallrate is indicated, but false breaks and "sell-off" may occur. However, a further fall is realistic and any reactions back to the breaking point ($150.62) are considered to be a "second chance" to get out. According to the fan-theory $131.07 will represent the new bottom line of the next trend, but it is far too early to say this for certain.

Apple

There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Apple stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term moving averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $158.10 and $166.14. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Wednesday, February 09, 2022, and so far it has fallen -14.56%. 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). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.

There is no support from accumulated volume below today's level and given the right condition the stock may perform very badly in the next couple of days.

This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved $4.02 between high and low, or 2.68%. For the last week, the stock has had a daily average volatility of 3.13%.

Apple holds several negative signals and is within a wide and falling trend, so we believe it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We therefore hold a negative evaluation of this stock.Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Sell to a Strong Sell candidate.
