The stockhas broken the wide and falling short-term trend up. Firstly a slower falling rate is indicated, but this may very well be an early signal of a trend shift. On the reaction, there will be support on the roof of the current trend broken, which is $247.43, a level that may pose a second chance to hit a runner. According to fan-theory $278.65 will be the next possible trend-top level and thereby pose a resistance level that may not be broken at the first attempt.
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The Microsoft stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term moving averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the stock has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $241.24 and $242.40. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, October 11, 2022, and so far it has risen 11.20%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal.
Microsoft finds support from accumulated volume at $244.74 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
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 $5.21 between high and low, or 2.12%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.69%.
Several short-term signals are positive and the break-up from the falling trend indicates a possible shift for a trend. We believe that the prices around the breaking point will indicate particularly good levels, but we also believe that the current level will hold a possible good buy level for the short-term period.
