Now, for a comparison, is the chart for AMZN (Amazon) using the same indicators as I explained for GOOGL (Alphabet).
There is less aqua color for AMZN.
You can see that AMZN has been moving sideways, which we call a consolidation. If the chop zone color for AMZN remains aqua, then I believe AMZN will once again resume its long term up trend. In this instance, some technicians call this a "catch up trade".
When the up-trend resumes, use a 9 day, 20 day, or 50 day moving average as your support.
BTW, I own both stocks and intend to keep them as "long term investments".
