AMZN — Technical Analysis (as of 2025-09-22)

Current price and context

  • Last price: 231.48
  • Context: AMZN sits in a broad bullish tilt supported by a bullish MA setup (price above MA50 and MA200; MA50 above MA200) with momentum held in the mid-range. The stock has carved a persistent higher-low pattern since late summer and remains near the upper end of a 225–240 trading band. RSI is neutral-to-positive (mid-50s to 60s range) and MACD remains positive, though not accelerating aggressively. A pullback to the 225–228 zone would keep the primary uptrend intact, while a clean break above the 238–242 zone would reassert upside momentum toward the 52-week high.

Summary Snapshot

  • Overall Score (0–20): 15 Buy
  • Rationale: The uptrend is intact with price trading above core moving averages and relative strength modestly positive. Key resistances near 235–239 cap near-term upside, but a break above that zone would confirm renewed upside toward the 52-week high.
  • Key Levels:
    • Support 1: 225.3 (touch around Sep 2, 2025)
    • Support 2: 228.1 (touch around Sep 12, 2025)
    • Resistance 1: 238.2 (high around Sep 9, 2025)
    • Resistance 2: 235.7 (high around Sep 4, 2025)
    • Reference: 52-Week High at 242.52; 52-Week Low at 161.38
  • Near-Term Outlook:
    • Bullish triggers: Close above 238–239 with sustainable volume to target the 242.5 area (52-week high zone) and potentially higher.
    • Bearish triggers: Break decisively below 225.3 (Support 1) with follow-through to re-evaluate the uptrend; invalidation near the 221–223 area would shift the bias.

Technical Analysis

  • Market structure and trend
    • Structure: The price action over the past few months shows a progressive higher-highs and higher-lows pattern within a ~225–242 band. The weekly view (2y) confirms a long-term uptrend, with price testing fresh highs in the 240s.
    • Trend alignment: Price trading above the MA50 (around 227) and MA200 (around 214) supports a bullish regime. MA50 > MA200 by roughly 12–13 points indicates positive trend strength, though the gradient is modest rather than explosive.
  • Moving averages
    • MA50 vs MA200: Bullish alignment (price above both; MA50 above MA200). The MA gap is stable but not widening rapidly, suggesting continued upside potential but modest momentum.
  • Momentum
    • RSI (14): Generally constructive, hovering in the mid-50s to low-60s; no extreme overbought signals in the last 60 days. This supports a continuing uptrend without an imminent pullback signal from RSI.
    • MACD (12,26,9): MACD remains positive with the histogram showing periodic strength but not a strong accelerating upturn. Recent readings show a positive tilt but without a sharp cross above the signal line; momentum is constructive but not exuberant.
  • Key levels (supports/resistances)
    • Supports: 225.3 (S1) and 228.1 (S2)
      • Why they matter: They are clear consolidation/bounce zones from the last 60 days and align near intraday reactions observed in late-August to mid-September data.
    • Resistances: 238.2 (R1) and 235.7 (R2)
      • Why they matter: They reflect recent local highs that have capped upside and define the near-term ceiling for the stock.
    • 52-Week High/Low:
      • 52-Week High: 242.52
      • 52-Week Low: 161.38
      • Why helpful: Context for long-run upside potential and downside risk within the current range. Breaks toward the 52-week high would be meaningful upside signals; dips toward the 52-week low would reframe risk.
  • Scenarios
    • Bullish scenario: A clean close above 238–239 (preferably with volume confirmation) would target the 242.5 region and potentially extend toward the 245–250 zone if momentum continues.
    • Bearish scenario: A break and close below 225.3 (S1) with follow-through would prompt a test of the 221–223 area and re-evaluation of the intermediate-term trend; a violation below 220 would raise the risk of a more significant pullback toward the MA200 vicinity.

  • 52-Week High (reference): 242.52; extended forward as a reference line to 2026-01-10.
  • 52-Week Low (reference): 161.38; extended forward as a reference line to 2026-04-13.

Technical rationale and caveats

  • The current price sits near the upper end of recent resistance clusters but remains inside a constructive uptrend with multiple bullish confirmations (price above MA50/MA200, positive MACD, and rising but moderate RSI).
  • A successful breakout above the 238–239 zone would shift the immediate bias to the upside, potentially driving toward the 242.5 area and beyond if demand remains supportive.
  • Conversely, a break below 225.3 would raise caution on the near-term continuation and could yield a deeper pullback toward mid-200s or lower, particularly if accompanied by high-volume selling.
