Is Oracle Attempting a Breakout?
Oracle has performed better than most technology and software companies, and now it may be attempting a breakout.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the triangle that took shape in December. Prices ended 2022 slightly above the top, and buyers jumped in yesterday.
Second is the $84.50 level. It was resistance in June 2021, support three months later and then resistance again last March and December. Can ORCL push through on the next test?
Third, MACD has fallen steadily for the last four weeks. This prevented a breakout following a strong quarterly report last month, but now the oscillator has started rising. That could suggest momentum is turning back in favor of the bulls.
Finally, moving averages are potentially bullish. The 50-day simple moving average (SMA) had a “golden cross” above the 200-day SMA last month. The 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) has also remained above the 21-day EMA since late October.
