Amazon.com Holds the Gap

NASDAQ:AMZN   Amazon.com
Amazon.com jumped last month. Now after a pullback, some traders may return to the e-commerce giant.

The first pattern on today’s chart is the price gap on July 29 after revenue beat estimates. AMZN continued higher through mid-August but has now eased back to its price area on the high-volume bullish day.

The level in question is also near the split adjusted low from March 8. That suggests some longer-term support may be in play.

Third, the past week’s slide has pulled stochastics into an oversold condition.

Finally, this chart includes TradeStation’s 2 MA Ratio script with the default settings (8- and 21-day exponential moving averages). The faster EMA remains above the slow EMA despite the past week’s drop, potentially suggesting that its intermediate uptrend remains in effect.

TradeStation has, for decades, advanced the trading industry, providing access to stocks, options, futures and cryptocurrencies. See our Overview for more.
