Amazon stock upgraded to Buy Candidate
(Updated on Jul 15, 2026)
The Amazon stock price increased by 3.02% on the most recent trading day (Wednesday, 15th Jul 2026), moving from $247.49 to $254.96. This marks its third consecutive day of gains. It will be interesting to observe whether it can maintain this upward trend or if it will take a brief pause in the coming days. On the last trading day, the stock experienced a fluctuation of 2.69%, with a low of $249.75 and a high of $256.48. The price has risen in 8 out of the last 10 days and has increased by 6.97% over the past two weeks. Trading volume also rose on the last day alongside the price, which is a positive technical indicator, with a total of 12 million more shares exchanged compared to the previous day. In total, 42 million shares were traded, amounting to approximately $10.78 billion.
The stock lies the upper part of a wide and falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break up at the top trend line at $259.48 will firstly indicate a slower falling rate, but may be the first sign of a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -9.64% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $199.80 and $234.47 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.
AMZN Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The Amazon stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $247.39 and $246.58. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, June 25, 2026, and so far it has risen 12.31%. 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. The stock had a Golden Star Signal on Monday, December 22, 2025 in the long-term chart.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Amazon stock
On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $240.14 and $232.69. There is a natural risk involved when a stock is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the stock then may fall to the next support level.

Our recommended stop-loss: $245.18 (-3.84%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 13 days ago.)
Trading Expectations (AMZN) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 16th
For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 16th we expect Amazon.com, Inc. to open at $253.73, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $251.23 and $258.69, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$7.45 (+/-2.97%) up or down from last closing price. If Amazon.com, Inc. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.97% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $263.04 (3.17%) than the support at $240.14 (5.81%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.
