PayPal (PYPL) has experienced a medium-term negative trend, losing over 80% from its 2021 highs. This downtrend developed after the formation of a Double Top chart pattern.

snapshot

Currently, the price is near a key resistance area at $70 (marked as Res 1), highlighted in purple. In the past, this zone acted as support (green arrows), and more recently, it has been serving as resistance, with the price being rejected twice (red arrows).

In the short term, the stock is showing a slightly positive formation, with an ascending triangle pattern taking shape. Additionally, the price is positioned above the main Point of Control (POC), considering the entire volume history.

Bullish Scenario:
To confirm a bullish scenario, the stock needs to break above the $70 resistance area (Res 1). If successful, it could progressively reach $100 and subsequently $120. Above this level, there are inefficient zones with low volume where the stock could potentially extend further.

Bearish Scenario:
If the stock fails to break the first resistance and falls below the POC area, it could resume its downtrend, targeting the first support area around $40 in stages.
