A quick look at Friday: despite the risk-off mood, Amazon was range-bound between $123.19 to $125.79 and settled at $123.43.
Amazon made an initial break below its 5 day Simple Moving Average at $124.33, a possible indication of a forthcoming negative trend. A Bearish Harami chart pattern, which is a means of predicting reversals in bull markets. When a Bearish Harami is detected at the top of a prevailing uptrend, it is typically considered a bearish signal and a prelude to a potential trend reversal. On the other hand, note that Amazon could begin to recover as it approaches significant support, now 96 cents away from $122.47. Dipping below could be an indication that further losses are ahead.
Several technical indicators are adding weight to the bearish momentum seen Friday and forecasting Amazon to extend its recent losses.
