There are mixed signals in the stock today. The Microsoft 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 $306.56 and $315.03. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, January 25, 2022, and so far it has risen 5.57%. 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 $296.71 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock is usually traded at a good volume, and with minor daily changes, the risk is considered to be low. During the last day, the stock moved $5.61 (1.87%) between high and low. For the last week, the stock has had a daily average volatility of 2.65%.

Microsoft holds several negative signals and we believe that it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We, therefore, hold a negative evaluation of this stock.
