Crowdstrike Holdings Testing Support, Whats next?Hi guys! This is a Technical Analysis on Crowdstrike Holdings (CRWD) on the 1 Week Timeframe.
Since this is a WEEKLY chart, its important to note that the current candle is not yet confirmed and closes end of trading Friday, 08/11/2023
Lets take our attention to the Orange circle highlighting current price action.
We have reached a critical SUPPORT zone.
A place where 2 SUPPORT levels converge
1. BLUE LINE - the 21 W EMA
2. BLACK SUPPORT TRENDLINE - 6 month support trend line
Currently we have "WICKED" or bounced from this convergence of supports.
It is crucial that we close this weeks candle ABOVE this zone.
Critical also to stay above the 21 W EMA, as doing so indicates BULLISH TREND.
Confirming BELOW would indicate BEARISH Trend.
*** If we see confirmation of SUPPORT
-> this can be an ENTRY ZONE for a potential trade/bounce back up.
*** How ever its a little too soon to tell
We are also currently BELOW another TRENDLINE thats labeled "Support turned RESISTANCE".
It be nice to see PRICE get ABOVE this, come end of week.
Notice also the RED CIRCLE that shows our REJECTION from a convergence of RESISTANCE.
Here we have 2:
1. being the ORANGE horizontal resistance line
2. Slanted BLACK LINE
Take a look also at the LARGE UPPER WICK and how multiple candles have LARGE UPPER WICKS.
This indicates SELL PRESSURE and that this area is a tough area to break to the UPSIDE.
It can give off further bearish momentum to the downside.
We also have GOLDEN CROSS of the:
1. 21 EMA
2. 50 SMA
BUt this alone is not enough for the BULLISH CASE.
We need to have price stay ABOVE for it not to be short lived and become a FAKEOUT.
Worst case scenario for now if we CANNOT maintain SUPPORT at our current area.
ANd we end up breaking below 21 EMA & 6 MONTH SUPPORT LINE.
Look to the 50 SMA as a SUPPORT level, it is currently pointed down so where ever it converged with price action at the time if a hypothetical price decline.
If that fails, look to the ORANGE " Previous Resistance Trend from TOP" line. That would actually be a wonderful zone, provided we maintain SUPPORT.
-> This would be another zone to enter POSITIONS for a trade.
Now lets take a look at our Indicators.
1. RSI -> We printed a Lower High, with RSI going BELOW the BLACK Moving Average.
If you look LEFT, there is evidence that when we do this, price tends to drop. So be alert.
2. STOCH RSI is also in the process of printing a BEARISH CROSS. If this happens BEARISH moment will enter, leading to the probability of further price DECLINE.
-> If you look LEFT, everytime we point down, it has coincided with price DECLINES.
3. MACD, with the printing of light GREEN histograms that are small in size, this also is an indication of waning of BULLISH momentum. If we see a CROSS between blue/orange lines where BLUE goes under the ORANGE -> this will lead to an injection of BEARish momentum and further price DECLINES.
CONCLUSION:
CRWD has reached a critical SUPPORT zone, for us to start our descent back to the all time highs we need to maintain SUPPORT here. Some signs point to bullishness where others give off signs of continuation of a DECLINE from our REJECTION zone. But the first thing that needs to get done is confirming SUPPORT above the mentioned zones. Important to see what price action and the indicators do come end of the week.
Stay tuned for more updates on CRWD in the near future.

CRWD
CRWD is on the verge of a Stage 1 breakoutCrowdStrike is in the cusp of breaking out of a Stage 1 base. Its currently slightly above the AVWAP from the peak in Nov 2021 with a new Relative Strength high compared to the SPX. It reported stellar numbers in the last quarter earnings with EPS growth of 106%.
Pullback Buy in CRWDThis cybersecurity stock has been a top performer in 2023.
After a vicious Stage 4 downtrend that wiped out 70% of its value in the 2022 bear market, CRWD has come ripping off the low this year.
It reclaimed its 200-day moving average last month and continues to advance higher.
The dashed line on the chart above shows a key support/resistance level in CRWD. The stock found resistance here earlier in the year and it has so far served as support after getting above the 200-day.
The stock is also sitting on its 50-day moving average which should serve as additional support.
I would consider buying here with a stop just below the 200-day line at $133. This would represent a 7% risk on the trade.
CRWD - Rising Trend Channel [MID TERM]🔹CRWD is in a rising trend channel in the medium long term.

CRWD CrowdStrike and the U.S. Gov Agencies Hit By CyberattackIf you haven`t bought CRWD here:
Then you should know that CrowdStrike is a leading provider of cloud-based endpoint security solutions that protect against cyber threats.
In light of the recent news regarding cyberattacks on multiple U.S. government agencies, it is reasonable to expect an increased focus on cybersecurity measures, which could potentially benefit cybersecurity stocks in the market. These attacks highlight the vulnerabilities present in the software systems used by government entities, underscoring the urgent need for robust cybersecurity solutions.
The fact that the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency is actively investigating the breach indicates the seriousness of the situation and the government's commitment to addressing these security threats. As such, there may be a heightened emphasis on strengthening cybersecurity infrastructure and investing in advanced technologies to defend against future attacks.
Furthermore, the reported involvement of a Russian-speaking hacking group known as CLOP in previous attacks serves as a reminder of the persistent and evolving nature of cyber warfare. This continuous threat landscape necessitates ongoing innovation and investment in cybersecurity.
Considering these factors, cybersecurity stocks have the potential to experience an upward trajectory. Companies specializing in threat intelligence, network security, endpoint protection, and data encryption could be in high demand as organizations and governments seek to fortify their defenses against cyber threats.
My price target for CRWD is $192 by the end of the year!
Looking forward to read your opinion about it!
CRWD: Bullish setup points towards $240-270CRWD sits at the convergence of two mega trends: Cyber security and AI. Strong impulsive move off the low combined with a 3 wave pull back and subsequent break of the W1 high implies a low-risk entry point ahead of earnings. Ultimately expect CRWD to reach quadruple digits over the next few years.

CRWD (Multi-Support Bounce)CRWD is currently retesting a key support area between ($90.94 - $102.08) for the second time since its last touch back on June, July, and August 2020. This touch /bounce of support is also in confluence with a 3rd touch of the support area within a massive falling wedge that began to form after CRWD reached all time highs November 2021. In addition to this information, CRWD is also forming a smaller falling wedge on the lower time frames adding more confirmation to a bounce from this area. On the monthly chart, CRWD is creating smaller monthly candles with volume showing a decline along with these decreasing in size. Note: There are two GAPs on the daily to be filled. One between ($99.78 - $102.54) and the other between ($125.52 - $136.31).
Trade Idea:
For an early ENTRY wait for a break and hold of the current resistance area between ($98.70 - $100.63) after the break of $99.78. TARGET the next resistance area between ($108.94 - $112.07).
For a safer entry with added confirmation of a trend change. First allow the break of the resistance area between ($98.70 - $100.63) then wait for a retest/reject of the next swing high around $107.44 - 108.46 or maybe even the next resistance area between ($108.94 - $112.07). After this reject allow for CRWD’s price action to make its way back down to retest the previous resistance area to ensure that it has turned into support and wait confirmation to enter.
Being that this is analysis applies to the Daily, Weekly, and Monthly charts, this setup could be used to make short term swing trades or long term LEAPs, depending on your chosen targets.
Me personally, I would make short term trades on the way up but my ultimate target is CRWD making its way back up to the resistance line/zone of the larger falling wedge, maybe even filling the big GAP zone between ($125.52 - $136.31)
Wherever you choose to enter, please manage risk accordingly and choose your stop loss wisely.
$CRWD: Down trend expired as a failure...CrowdStrike offers a high reward to risk setup here, buying into strength after the recent daily timeframe down trend signal has expired without hitting the target in time, this type of scenario warrants a mean reversion move back to the distribution area where the move started from a few weeks ago, in a similar amount of time as the projected decline. I like that analysts who used to be bullish on the way down have capitulated and turned pessimistic on the stock as a bonus here.
If Cloud remains, then cybersecurity is THE next BIG thingLet me spell something out for everyone
Digital workplace
1980s 2022 2026 & Beyond
Memo > Email > Internet > Mobile > instant messaging > Video calling > Meta-verse
As we move more, if not all of our collaboration into the digital world, we rely on faster and faster decision making, as the corporations who cut down their decision making process benefit from changes in the market place.
If all corporations are using a meta verse to create an always on virtual office, where everyone is collaborating (not like the one Zuck showed us) and are located anywhere around the world! Imagine if those meeting were to be hacked, people stealing IPs and ideas! Can you just imaging who many corporations would be held to ransom? Who would even insure them?
I personally thing CyberSecurity will become a permanent fixture, like Sarbane Oxley or basel 2 is to finance! It will become mandatory for everyone in the S&P!

My trade recap on $CRWD$CRWD
I had the stock on my watch list and it was my preferred stock to trade today, the idea was to take the stock as soon as it reached the support level created in the pre-market all the way to the support level I identified at $111.2 After my entry I saw that I can aggressively add volume if the stock breaks $113 because a small level has formed there (see the red line) and in addition, CRWD is very weak today.
Entry - $113.99
Add - $113.11
Stop - $115.4
Take profit - $111.21
My best trade this month, first of all, was because of the management of the trade and the way I thought during the trade together with the risk management and the timing of my exit point, and of course because of the money I was able to take from this trade.
