MSFT: Bearish Crab with Double MACD Bearish DivergenceMicrosoft has traded up to a 1.618 Fibonacci Extension and has formed a Bearish Crab with Double MACD Bearish Divergence, so long as $350 holds as resistance, I think it could go as low as about $295 to fill the gap below. In the meantime, I have sold $350 multi-week calls.Shortby RizeSenpaiUpdated 6

MICROSOFT Huge MACD Bearish Cross ahead of earnings. Still buy?Microsoft (MSFT) has been trading within a Channel Up pattern since the March 13 Low, with the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) supporting all the way, having made no contact with the price at all. You can see that on the chart on the right (1D time-frame). On the bigger picture, the 1W time-frame (chart on the left), the stock closed last week's 1W candle on a very discouraging Bearish Pin Bar, which is a candle formed on technical trend reversals from bullish to bearish. In addition the 1W RSI remains overbought above 70.00, despite dropping from the even higher levels of May 30. Perhaps the strongest alarming indicator at the moment showing that the market may have hit a temporary top is the emerging Bearish Cross on the 1W MACD. Since 2020, we have seen that formation another 7 times, with 6 of them delivering a Lower Low. As a result when the 1W MACD Bearish Cross is completed, it will be more probable to see a correction, not necessarily an earth shuttering one. But back to the 1D time-frame (chart on the right) if that happens, we will wait for a candle close below the 1D MA50 and sell, targeting the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) on a projected contact at $300. Until this happens though, the Channel Up is on full effect and we are targeting the Internal Higher Highs trend-line at $380. In the meantime, observe the 1D RSI, which is trading inside a Rectangle for the past 6 months and has offered accurate buy signals at its bottom and sell signals at its top. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

MICROSOFT'S Fiscal 2023 Q4 Results: Assessing Growth and....Microsoft's Fiscal 2023 Q4 Results: Assessing Growth and Profitability Investors are eagerly anticipating Microsoft's fiscal 2023 fourth-quarter results, set to be unveiled on July 25. The upcoming report holds significance as it is expected to include the company's outlook for fiscal year 2024, making it a crucial event for evaluating Microsoft's growth opportunities, profitability, and cash demand trends. When considering Microsoft as an investment, three key factors set it apart from others. Diverse Business: Microsoft's strength lies in its diverse business offerings. Unlike companies that focus on specific industries or technologies, Microsoft provides exposure to various growth niches, including enterprise cloud services, AI, productivity software, and more. Owning Microsoft allows investors to capitalize on multiple expansion opportunities under one brand, thereby reducing the risks associated with heavy reliance on a single sector. High Profitability: Despite some fluctuations in financial metrics since the peak of the pandemic in 2021 and early 2022, Microsoft remains one of the most efficient generators of cash and profits in the market. In the last quarter, the company achieved an impressive 15% year-over-year increase in operating income, resulting in $22.4 billion in profit on $53 billion in sales. This high level of profitability reinforces Microsoft's position as a robust and stable investment option. As the report is released, investors should focus on these essential growth indicators and look beyond short-term sales volatility to assess Microsoft's long-term potential. The company's diverse business and strong profitability make it an attractive investment opportunity for those seeking stability and growth in their portfolio. Pricey Stock: In terms of valuation, Microsoft is considered a pricey stock, with investors having to pay a premium for its valuable assets. Presently, Microsoft stock is valued at over 12 times its annual sales, comparable to the faster-growing Palo Alto Networks. However, in comparison, Apple offers a relatively better bargain with a valuation of 8 times its sales, while Amazon is even cheaper at less than 3 times its sales. While there is a possibility that Microsoft's valuation may decrease in the coming quarters, particularly if the company reports disappointing sales results in late July or forecasts challenges in the upcoming operational year, the more likely scenario is that the business will continue to gain market share in various significant global tech industries. Additionally, any cyclical downturn in its operating system segment or consumer tech devices division is expected to be short-lived. Considering Microsoft's bright long-term outlook, industry-leading profit margins, ample cash flow, and rising dividend payments, it emerges as an incredibly attractive stock to consider adding to your portfolio. For tech stock investors who prefer a less risky approach in a fast-moving industry, Microsoft provides an excellent opportunity to gain exposure to major trends while investing in one of the most valuable companies in the world.

MSFT Stocks: Fundamental vs. Technical AnalysisThis week 166 companies that make up 33% of the S&P 500 index will publish their reports for the second quarter. Among them, the second largest company in the index, Microsoft. And here, an interesting situation develops: the fundamental background is quite strong, and technical analysis shows signs of weakness. Judge for yourself. Fundamental analysis: → the Android version of the sensational ChatGPT will be released this week; → Fundstrat analysts see a target price for MSFT shares of around USD 380 in the short term and USD 426 in the long term; → Barclays analysts have rated MSFT stock as a Buy with a target of USD 425 (previous MSFT share price target of USD 425) amid Microsoft 365 AI rollout. However, let's evaluate the MSFT stock chart from the point of view of technical analysis. Note that after a sharp breakdown of the psychological level of USD 350 on July 18, 3 days of rollback followed, which completely leveled the progress of the bulls and lowered the stock price back below USD 350; Friday's low is below the low of July 18, which can be interpreted as a shortage of buyers after a bullish breakdown. The attack of the bulls did not attract followers. Thus, the market, by its behavior, casts doubt on the scenario of further growth, which can be imagined on the basis of a strong fundamental. Fundamental or technical analysis? We will find out on Tuesday after the close of the main session, when the Microsoft report is released.

Microsoft Corporation (MSFT), DailyShares in Microsoft Corporation (symbol ‘MSFT’) have performed exceptionally well throughout the whole of the second quarter of the year with gains of around 80% outperforming the S&P 500. The company is expected to report earnings for the quarter ending June 2023, on Tuesday 25th of July after market close. The consensus EPS is $2,55 compared to $2,23 in the same quarter last year. “ The financial image of the company is completely in line with the extraordinary performance in the second quarter. The current ratio as of 31/03/2023 is at 191% showing that the company is more than capable of repaying its short term liabilities with the current assets that are in hand. Also the payout ratio is just short of 30% indicating that the company is keeping funds from giving out as dividends to its investors to invest in their economic growth which shows the dedication of the company to grow even more.” says Antreas Themistokleous, an analyst at Exness. Technical analysis shows the price has been trading in a bullish momentum since the beginning of March and is currently above the upper band of the Bollinger bands. This means that the bulls are pretty active pushing the price to the upside with volatility being fueled up. On the other hand the price is trading well above its moving averages and in combination with the Stochastic oscillator in the extreme overbought levels it is possible to see a correction to the downside especially if earnings expectations are not met. by Exness_Official0
MSFT getting ready for a bounce ahead of earningsWith a nice pullback today, I am hoping it pulls back a little more at market open to $351.43 before its continuation back up. Although, it is currently respecting its 1H 21MA around $352, so just keep an eye on it if it breaks below next support will be the $351.43.

Microsoft Long Alltime High hit Earnings New 52-week highs this week, powered by the Dow which, on Friday, extended its streak of positive days to ten — something the blue chip index has not done in almost six years. The Dow has been powered by, among other things, a slew of corporate financial results, particularly from the banks, which showed not only improved profitability, but also strong guidance for the next quarter and full year. I have explained 2 bullish scenarios,1 bearish(worse case). Bullish: higher highs higher lows poc uprising volume increasing capital flow rising In case the Take profits hit, and we have increased volume, I will ride the trend. I will only take profit 10% of the microsoft portfolio and let the profit run. Exit :Stop loss or trend change signal The mid and long term horizon is bullish. If any Profit taking level reaches, and trend continuation is signalizing that the uptrend will be continued, I will increase agressively my positions and take only 10% profits of each position.I will let the prfoits run. This trade setup is only for trend followers and on daily TF. Longby DaveBrascoFX4

MSFT Microsoft Options Ahead of Earnings ! Growth Thesis !If you haven`t bought MSFT when they Bought 49% Stake in OpenAI, creator of ChatGPT: Or sold on their warning to investors: Then analyzing the options chain and chart patterns of MSFT Microsoft prior to the earnings report this week, I would consider purchasing the 345usd strike price Calls with an expiration date of 2024-1-19, for a premium of approximately $28.95. If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them. The investment by Microsoft in OpenAI signifies a significant boost to their artificial intelligence capabilities. OpenAI's advanced technologies and expertise in AI research and development could potentially enhance the capabilities of Microsoft's Bing search engine. With access to powerful AI algorithms and resources, Bing may be able to offer more personalized and accurate search results, thereby attracting users who seek a more refined search experience. Microsoft has been making strategic moves to expand its presence in various sectors, including cloud computing and enterprise services. By integrating Bing into its ecosystem of products and services, Microsoft can leverage its existing user base and partnerships to promote Bing as a viable alternative to Google. In recent years, Google has faced scrutiny over data privacy concerns and antitrust issues, which could create an opportunity for Bing to gain traction among users seeking more privacy-focused alternatives. Additionally, Microsoft has been actively investing in marketing and advertising efforts to raise awareness about Bing and improve its market positioning. While Google currently holds a dominant position in the search engine market, the landscape is dynamic and subject to change. If Microsoft successfully leverages its partnership with OpenAI to enhance Bing's capabilities, coupled with strategic marketing initiatives, it could potentially chip away at Google's market share over time. The implementation, by Microsoft, of a chatbot like ChatGPT, powered by OpenAI's advanced natural language processing capabilities, could indeed provide an opportunity for consumers to find the cheapest price online for the same product. In an era where price comparison and cost-saving measures are highly valued by customers, this feature could be a valuable asset for Bing. Amazon's reputation for having expensive and overvalued prices has been a topic of discussion among consumers. While Amazon provides a wide range of products and convenient shopping experiences, some users have expressed concerns about the pricing competitiveness on the platform. This presents an opening for Bing to attract cost-conscious consumers who are actively seeking better deals. The concern over the origin of products, particularly those manufactured in China, has gained attention in recent years. Some consumers prefer to avoid purchasing Chinese-made products due to quality, safety, or political reasons. If Bing can provide a search experience that allows users to filter or identify the origin of products more effectively, it could cater to a segment of consumers who prioritize alternative sourcing. I think MSFT will be one of the winners of the AI race. Looking forward to read your opinion about it. Longby TopgOptions227

MSFT suppressed by the 3.000 level of the golden sectionMSFT suppressed by the 3.000 level of the golden section This chart shows the weekly candle chart of Microsoft stock in the past two years. The graph overlays the low point at the end of October 2022 against the golden section. As shown in the figure, Microsoft's stock has reached another new high this week, breaking through the highest point at the end of 2021! But the weekly pattern of Microsoft stock this week is a long shadow line, with the highest point precisely suppressed by the 3.000 level of the golden section in the figure! Based on last week's weekly pattern, Microsoft's stock market is likely to enter a contraction triangle consolidation state in the future!by Think_More0
Is MSFT's bullish momentum depleted? The uptrend channel A 100% parallel extension of the uptrend channel indicates the strength of this bullish trend. Symmetrical projection: An uptrend N pattern By projecting a 100% symmetry projection of the initial swing from point A to B, and extending it from point C, the target price would be point D at $303.3. Given that the anticipated symmetric pullback to point E did not occur, my expectation is for a further 100% extension from point D. As a result, the target price has been revised upwards to point F at $360.8. Other key levels Resistance The historical highest high at $349.6 is a very strong resistance level, coinciding with the upper band of the channel's 100% extension. The more resistances encountered, the harder it is to break through. Support The 1.5 extension level at $ 332 is a support level that has been tested. Clear price reactions to key Fibonacci levels can enhance the overall significance and value of the analysis. The prior low level, which is at $322.5, can always act as a significant support level. Moreover, it’s a resistance turned support level, making it more important. Possible scenarios If the uptrend continues… When facing the key resistance at $349.6, the market should exhibit a clear movement, like a gap-up opening or a significant bullish candle, to demonstrate its determination. If the bullish momentum is depleted… The market is likely to pull back the price to below the prior low level, which is at $322.5. Compared to the 1.5 extension support level, the level of the prior low holds greater importance. If the 1.5 extension support level is breached, it serves as a mere warning. However, If the level of the prior low is breached, it disrupts the rhythm of a healthy bullish trend and makes price movements difficult to anticipate. Conclusion If the key support at $322.5 is breached, it’s better to step out of the market. Allow the market to stabilize on its own, and wait for a clearer signal before reentering. If not, the uptrend will continue, and the target price remains at $360.8. Hindsight bias part While our target price is $360.8, the prior historical high level at $349.6 represents the optimal target price. Considering the formidable resistance at the prior historical high, I prefer to sacrifice a small portion of potential returns in favor of a higher probability of success. **Not Financial Advice** The information contained in this article is not intended as, and should not be understood as financial advice.
