On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $35.90 and $31.40. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, September 05, 2024, and so far it has risen 22.12%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found.

The Palantir stock is extremely overbought on RSI14 (83). Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but since the stock has broken the trend up, the chance for a major correction due to high RSI is very small as the stock will find support at the trend broken.
Several short-term signals, along with a general good trend, are positive and the stock has broken the rising trend up, which indicates an even stronger rate of rising. We can conclude that the current level may hold a buying opportunity as there is a fair chance for Palantir stock to perform well in the short-term period. Due to a possible false trend-break listing stock as pure buy candidate is held back.
