PayPal (PYPL) – Cup-and-Handle Setup looks very BULLISHPayPal is showing a well-formed cup-and-handle pattern, with a currently consolidating handle. The stock is moving within an ascending channel, which helps project a path to the bullish target of $92.40 .
However , this is an early-stage breakout setup and carries some risk .
If the price breaks below the lower boundary of the ascending channel (currently around $72), it could invalidate the pattern.
With the 150-day moving average far below and the RSI in overbought territory, any failure to hold support would suggest an overextended stock .
On the upside, volume is increasing, and the market's current bullish trend gives PayPal a solid chance at breaking through the $74 resistance and heading toward the target.
With pre-market price of ~$74 PayPal looks ready to test the $74 resistance.
However, keep an eye on $72 support level for risk management, and wait for volume for breakout confirmation.
Do you think PayPal can sustain this momentum, or is the stock too stretched for a breakout?
