During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.99% from a day low at $126.33 to a day high of $128.84. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days but is still down by -0.14% for this period. Volume fell on the last day by -27 million shares and in total, 45 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $5.83 billion.

The stock lies in the lower part of a wide and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $127.33 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift.Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 25.58% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $159.90 and $194.60 at the end of this 3-month period.

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. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Amazon 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 $130.07 and $134.43. 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 16, 2022, and so far it has fallen -11.21%. 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).
