Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 141.99% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $82.35 and $184.95 at the end of this 3-month period.

There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Upstart stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $58.11 and $48.34. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Tuesday, August 01, 2023, and so far it has fallen -52.80%. 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.

On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $29.75 and $27.65.There is a natural risk involved when a stock is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the stock then may fall to the next support level. In this case, Upstart finds support just below today's level at $29.75. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at $27.65 and $25.98.
