Like many growth stocks, Roku pulled back sharply in 2022. But now after a year of consolidation, the streaming-video company may be trying to recover.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the bullish gap on July 28 after quarterly results beat estimates.
Second, ROKU pulled back to form a base around $76 after the rally. That was near the peaks of mid-June and mid-July. Has old resistance become new support?
Third, August’s trough represented a higher low than late July, continuing the series of higher lows that have developed all year. The recent spike above $98 was also the third successive higher high.
Next, the bounce in mid-August occurred at the 50-day simple moving average (SMA). The 50-day SMA additionally had a “golden cross” above the 200-day SMA in April, which may suggest its longer-term uptrend has turned more bullish.
Shorter term indicators could also be more positive as stochastics rebound from oversold and the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) crossed back above the 21-day EMA.
