MSFT trade ideas
MICROSOFT has bottomed. Dont miss this once/year buy opportunityMicrosoft (MSFT) has been trading within a Fibonacci Channel Up since the October 2022 market bottom following the Inflation Crisis. Since the August 05 2024 Low on the 1W MA50 (blue trend-line), the stock has struggled to get detached from it and stage a sustainable rally.
This prolonged volatility can be seen however on both previous Lows of the Channel Up, while the price was attempting to price a bottom. Technically it is around the same levels as February - March 2023 (again below the 1W MA50).
As you can see, this kind of buy opportunity emerges roughly once a year on MSFT and posts a rise or roughly +50% from the bottom, with the last Higher High priced on the 1.5 Fibonacci extension.
As a result, our long-term Target is now set at $550.

IS THIS MAG7 DARLING ABOUT TO CRASH?!NASDAQ:MSFT
🔥 IS NASDAQ:MSFT ABOUT TO FALL OVER 21%?! 🔥
Let's not panic yet, but Microsoft's weekly charts are flashing some intriguing signals. Here’s the lowdown:
As long as NASDAQ:MSFT stays within its symmetrical pattern, we’re in the clear. But if it breaks downward, we’re looking at a potential 6% drop from the Volume profile shelf and possibly a dangerous 22% plunge, breaking the 2024 Head & Shoulders pattern. Enter the "Low Five Setup"—the bearish counterpart to my "High Five Setup."
Key factors to watch:
- Williams %R: Lower High
- MACD: Dangerously close to crossing below the zero line (BEARISH)
- RSI: Below RSI MA with lower highs, at 46—lots of room before oversold
- Trend: Lower high, red through yellow downward move indicating a downtrend on the weekly chart
Microsoft has been Wall Street’s golden goose, untouched by the FUD that hit the MAG7 stocks. Apple had China FUD, Tesla faced the ELON BAD FUD, Google with AI SEARCH FUD, Amazon with spending and margins FUD, Meta with metaverse spending FUD, and Nvidia with growth concerns FUD.
But as Willy Wonka taught us, every golden goose lays a bad egg sometimes. This is a weekly chart setup, so it will take time to play out. No one's immune to Wall Street’s FUD wrath, not even Microsoft. We shall see what happens...
P.S. I’m not in this name yet—just putting it on your radar. We’re early to the party, just like I always am with my setups. If you’re still here, you value solid, well-thought-out market analysis. Props to you!
Have a great Sunday, friends! 👊

MSFT Channel BreakPretty significant channel break here on MSFT. This is the uptrend from January and it may be coming to an end if it can't recover soon. We also have a shorter term uptrend/bear flag on the 15m that has been broken to the downside as well.
Doesn't look good IMO, first downside target is around $390 - $385.
Retest of the $200 level on the table.The bull market of generations is ending. The never ending buying of the the top 10 stocks for every fund, pension, and mutual fund has seen its best days and now the a new generation who grows up in a bear market will come of age. When it is all said and done, MSFT will be back near $50. Of course, most will not comprehend what is coming, but history proves humans have never been capable of seeming the train coming.

Microsoft (MSFT) Shares Decline Despite Strong Earnings ReportMicrosoft (MSFT) Shares Decline Despite Strong Earnings Report
On 9 October, our analysis of Microsoft (MSFT) suggested that the stock price:
→ Was forming an ascending channel (shown in blue on the chart);
→ Could see a rebound from its lower boundary (indicated by an arrow).
Since then, the price indeed moved upward from this support around the $411 level, even surpassing $437. However, following Microsoft’s Q3 earnings report released post-market yesterday, the share price faced heightened volatility.
In the Q3 report:
→ Earnings per share (EPS) came in at $3.30, exceeding the expected $3.10;
→ Gross revenue was $65.58 billion, also above the forecasted $64.57 billion.
Despite these positive figures, MSFT shares saw a decline due to high volatility during after-hours trading, reaching $444 at one point and then falling to around $410. This drop may be due to Microsoft’s rising expenses. As reported by The Wall Street Journal, Microsoft’s capital expenditures in 2024 have hit $53 billion (about 28% of revenue), a substantial increase from the 12% average of revenue allocated to capital costs between 2014 and 2023.
As of pre-market trading today, MSFT is trading around $417 (approximately -4% from yesterday’s close), likely setting the opening level for today’s main session.
Today’s technical analysis of MSFT suggests that the opening may see a bearish gap, potentially pushing MSFT’s price toward the lower boundary of the ascending blue channel, where a new consensus between buyers and sellers could emerge. This sets up two scenarios:
→ Bulls may see an opportunity for another rebound;
→ Bears could aim for a breakdown of this key support level, with potential testing of the psychological $400 level.
Analyst sentiment remains positive. According to TipRanks surveys:
→ 27 out of 30 analysts recommend buying MSFT shares;
→ The average 12-month target price for MSFT is $503.

Microsoft (MSFT): Can Earnings Sustain the Trend Channel?With Microsoft set to report earnings, investors are keenly watching updates on AI-related spending, especially growth within Azure and Copilot, as well as broader financials. A significant focus will be on capital expenditures (Capex) for generative AI initiatives, expected to rise from $9.92 billion a year ago to an estimated $14.74 billion in this recent quarter. Beyond revenue and earnings, the market is waiting to see how these hefty investments are shaping the company’s growth trajectory.
Technically, NASDAQ:MSFT continues to test the lower bound of its trend channel—a level that may weaken with repeated retests. The stock’s reaction to earnings will reveal if this support can hold. The formation suggests a potential head and shoulders pattern, particularly if NASDAQ:MSFT dips below the neckline support at $388 with declining volume.
For now, we’re maintaining our cautious outlook. If Microsoft fails to hold its key support levels, it may confirm the bearish trend we’ve been observing. As always, we’ll provide updates if any significant developments occur after the earnings report.
Bullish on MSFT see which side it chooses on earnings!I spy a double bottom on the weekly. If MSFT can break above the neckline of this double bottom around 441, we can take it up to 468 (it’s previous ATH). I would expect a pull back or some basing here, but then see potential to create new high after. MSFT is currently holding above its downtrend line formed from July and September peaks.
If it breaks down: I not looking to trade this to the downside unless it breaks the recent uptrend line around 415 - 420. Even so, I wouldn't expect a significant or long term decline. I personally would wait for the move up.
MSFT Technical Analysis for Oct. 28, 2024Trend and Price Action: MSFT has seen a mix of upward and downward movements, with price consolidating near resistance levels. The trendline suggests some recent selling pressure as MSFT has started to pull back from its highs around $432.52.
Support and Resistance Levels:
Resistance: Key resistance is around $432.52, where MSFT may face selling pressure. A strong breakout above this could signal further upside, potentially targeting $435.
Support: Immediate support is around $427.70, and stronger support lies near $424.22 and $422.39. These levels could serve as buying zones if MSFT retraces.
MACD Indicator: The MACD is currently showing a slight bearish tendency. If this continues, it may signal short-term downward pressure, aligning with the recent resistance level rejection.
Volume: Volume appears moderate, indicating consolidation. If volume increases on a downward move, it could signal stronger selling pressure.
Suggested Strategy
Bullish Scenario: If MSFT breaks above $432.52 with volume, consider entering long, targeting $435, with stops below $430 for risk control.
Bearish Scenario: If MSFT fails to break above resistance, consider short entries near $432 with targets at $427 or $424.

$MSFT huge FLAG break into earnings?NASDAQ:MSFT setting up for the move into earnings. Before earnings it might retest 423 area then break above into earnings. Upside target 440 area!
But if this fails 423 level, its going to be risky and could go down to 407 and 401 area (with bad earnings.) Mon and Tue sessions are crucial.
MSFTMSFT broke up the daily trendline which was formed through the tops of the 5th July and the 19th September, but bulls did not manage to close above it this Friday.
On the daily charts 100 EMA is above 200 EMA, as it is the same on the 30 mins TF, where the price fluctuates in the uptrend channel.
Daily lower trendline is confirmed by third rejection and price going up from the support on the 16th October.
With the upcoming earnings report I expect some volatility and potential buy setup forming near the 30 min channel support and daily trendline support in the price region of 415.70-418.70.
I am ready to open long position at or around 417.90, with SL below daily trendline (but not below 412.75) with potential partial TP at the top of 30 min channel close to 435 and then at 442.
If on daily TF MSFT closes above 443, that would signal potential rapid movement up and testing highs of 470, but I don't expect this to happen too soon.
MSFT Microsoft Corporation Options Ahead of EarningsAnd when you think about it, everything began with this:
Now analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of MSFT Microsoft Corporation prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 430usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2024-11-1,
for a premium of approximately $9.55.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
