Technical analysis shows that although Smartsheet Inc. is pointing down today (was as low as $39.2), it's climbing away from the $38.51 support line and is now $1.15 above it. Concerning technical analysis and more specifically, trend indicators, 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 $39.53 currently serving as support. If price action breaks below, the next Fib hurdle is $38.63. According to asset volatility analysis, Smartsheet's lower Bollinger Band® is at $40.36, indicating that the asset has overextended to the downside and could, therefore, bounce back as buyers look for bargains.
With market volatility ebbing, the current technical outlook indicates Smartsheet will remain range-bound for the immediate future.
