Trend and momentum analysis indicates that the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicator is below -100, meaning the market price is unusually low and below its rolling moving average. Technical analysis indicates that a new, strong downtrend could be forthcoming with short positions favored. Price action remains constrained around the key Fibonacci level of $43.16 currently serving as support. If price action breaks below, the next Fib hurdle is $42.02. According to asset volatility analysis, Smartsheet's upper Bollinger Band® is at $48.16 and the lower is $42.84. Technical chart analysis shows Smartsheet is approaching key support, around 52 cents away from $43. Dipping below could indicate further losses are ahead while a failure to break below this level is likely to be seen positively by market bulls.
The current technical outlook indicates Smartsheet will continue to ebb sideways within tight ranges for the immediate future.
