Potential long in $MSFT**Scenario:** The 30-, 50-, and 200-day SMAs have been perfectly aligned for a bullish move for the past few days. Since the low point in August, the price has been making higher highs and higher lows, indicating a bullish trend. The seasonality in NASDAQ:MSFT (bullish Q4) is about to begin. The last bullish wave has already been corrected by 50%, which may be sufficient for the next move. Longby p4917Updated 0
Microsoft (MSFT) Shares Drop Over 3% This MonthMicrosoft (MSFT) Shares Drop Over 3% This Month An overview of stock market charts since the beginning of the month reveals that while the Nasdaq 100 index (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen) is in positive territory, Microsoft (MSFT) shares have underperformed significantly. The opening price on 1st October was $427.47, but by yesterday's close, it had fallen over 3%. One of the key drivers behind this bearish sentiment is analysis from Oppenheimer, suggesting that Microsoft's financial performance may be negatively impacted by losses related to OpenAI. Additionally, Oppenheimer downgraded Microsoft's stock rating, a concerning sign ahead of the upcoming third-quarter earnings season. Technical analysis of Microsoft's (MSFT) stock chart shows that the price is hovering around a critical support zone, which is formed by: → the lower boundary of an upward channel that has been in place since early 2024 (marked in blue); → the psychological level of $400 per share. What could happen next? Bullish outlook: Microsoft's (MSFT) share price may reverse upwards from this support zone. Yesterday’s bullish candle indicates a potential increase in demand. Bearish outlook: The median line of the blue channel has acted as resistance (shown by the arrow). It’s possible that the next level where bears could confirm control is the former support at $425. Which scenario plays out largely depends on Microsoft's upcoming earnings report, scheduled for 22nd October.

Oct 8: MSFT ready to explode to the upsideAug 5 was an important low for tech stocks and many stocks in the market, as shown in the weekly RSI that the drop has corrected the whole rally from 2022. Since then, MSFT has been going sideways in an ascending channel in two sets of 1-2 waves as shown in the 4 hour chart. This is typical for accumulation or basing before price acceleration in wave 3. Great buy opportunity here.Longby TraderBwater1
Microsoft: Beginning of a Downtrend? NASDAQ:AAPL After a prolonged uptrend in Microsoft’s stock that lasted over a year, there are now some technical signals suggesting that this upward momentum might be reversing. As shown in the image (attached), one of the key indicators of this potential shift is the moving average crossover. The 50-day moving average has crossed below the 200-day moving average. This pattern, often referred to as a “death cross”, is a classic technical sign that a stock may be entering a downtrend. While this is by no means a guarantee, it’s a signal worth paying attention to, as it typically reflects a change in market sentiment. Combined with other potential indicators, this could be the beginning of a bearish phase for Microsoft. What are your thoughts? Are we looking at a correction, or is this just a short-term blip?

Microsoft Clear Long - Term Elliott Wave PatternSometimes individual stocks can have clear Elliott wave patterns. Since October 2022 Microsoft (MSFT) rallied in a clear Elliott five – wave extended Impulse pattern. The decline from its July 2024 top was impulsive followed by a clear Single Zigzag correction. A third wave down could now be developing. If so it could break below the August bottom and reach at least a .618 retracement of the 2022 to 2024 rally. Shortby markrivest227

Microsoft (MSFT): Decision Point – Will It Hold or Drop?Since our last analysis on Microsoft, not much has changed in terms of price action, as it rose to $469 before getting stuck again at $416. However, there is one major development – Microsoft has formed a new trend channel. We have marked this crucial channel in red and labeled it "Must hold for more upside," emphasizing its importance. A major decision is approaching for $MSFT. Either Microsoft holds this channel, leading to a surge higher, or it loses this level, which would confirm the bearish head and shoulder pattern. We've maintained a bearish outlook on Microsoft since January 2024, and recent developments seem to support our analysis. For now, we're patiently waiting and letting the market decide. If Microsoft loses the channel, we could find initial support for wave (A) around $316-306. However, a better buying opportunity for wave II may present itself closer to $220 – though reaching this level will take some time. 🫡by freeguy_by_wmc3

Microsoft Corp. Impending CrashLooking at Microsoft Corp. (MSFT), we have the same dynamic we saw on the Nvidia (NVDA) and Apple, Inc. (AAPL) charts, the lower high. The All-Time High for this stock came in July 2024. This means that prices have been dropping now for several months. The recent up-move is just a pull-back, a natural market reaction after a major move. The bias is down and new downtrend is being established, we are in bearish territory. The pull-back produces a lower high and now we have a break below EMA8, EMA13 and EMA21 on the weekly timeframe. Closing below these levels, 421-423, would confirmed the bearish bias. The week closes tomorrow of course. Trading volume has been dropping since March 2023, a very long time and we have marketwide correlation with this chart. The DXY, which moves in inverse fashion to these stocks, turned ultra-bullish and is growing like there is no tomorrow. We are about to experience a major correction or crash on this one. Prepare yourself. The bearish wave can last for months... Thank you for reading. Your support is appreciated. Namaste.Shortby AlanSantana4435
Correction Wave CompleteWe caught the move down and we are now reacting perfective off this zone 0.382 level. Price is very choppy in this zone and has made no lower lows in the lower time frames. Waiting for EMA to line up bullish before we take entry in shorter time frames. I will be entering a swing position once we have a strong indicator of a reversal. Longby Fiftyclip113
Microsoft - Its Decision Time Hi Guys, This chart could be a leading indicator for overall market direction, alongside NASDAQ:NVDA - NVIDIA and $AAPL. So this chart and the other two largest companies in the world Nvidia and Apple are worth paying close attention to, for overall market direction. ▫️ Similar to a the 2019 - 2022 period, the price held the mid term parallel channel with the 200 day SMA acted as underside support. When the 200SMA and the parallel channel was lost in Q1 2023, it led to significant 28%+ decline from these levels (38% from the prior highs of the period). ▫️ We can use the DSS Bressert and the On Balance Volume to help here in distinguishing a likely trend direction. ▫️ This is a very strong chart as it stands. Many traders could step in at the 200 day SMA and bottom of the channel. If the channel is lost, and we have serious reason for concern and could exit on a revisit or test of the underside of the channel (as illustrated with the arrow). Unless the channel is lost which sync's up with a loss of the 200 day moving average (approx. $410), intermediate trend looks intact for continued upwards trajectory.

Revenue and growth outlook OpenAI projects revenues of $3.6 billion in 2024, despite growing losses of more than $5 billion. By 2025, the company expects a significant jump, with revenue forecast at $11.6 billion. • Thrive Capital has the option to invest an additional $1 billion if OpenAI reaches certain revenue targets. Participation of major investors and their role Altimeter Capital, Fidelity and SoftBank (TYO: 9984), along with Abu Dhabi investment firm MGX, also participated in this round, underscoring OpenAI's appeal to large global investors.
