A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, October 26, 2023, and so far it has risen 15.47%. 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 $377.44 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
