Facebook bounced $2 from 1 year low and closed at $237.76

(Last update 10:51pm EST, February 3, 2022)

\\n

\\n

Facebook dropped to $235.75, its lowest point in 1 year. It later recovered $2 and closed at $237.76.

\\n

Facebook reported mixed earnings results Wednesday, with revenue at $33.67 billion, compared to a consensus of $33.34 billion. Since the release of its earnings report, Facebook lost 25.47%.

\\n

Visual analysis of Facebook's price graph shows Facebook's resistance level is at $346.22. In terms of trend indicators, we can see that medium-term trend indication has turned negative as the MACD (moving average convergence divergence) index generated a crossover sell signal. This occurs as the MACD line crosses below the MACD signal line. The CCI indicator is below -100. When the CCI (Commodity Channel Index) is at this level it means the price is below the average price as measured by the indicator, indicating a possible start of a new downtrend. Asset volatility analysis shows that Facebook shows signs that further losses might be next, as it crossed the lower Bollinger band at $270.25 Despite this, the Relative Strength Index has gone below 30, going into oversold conditions and allowing more gains.

\\n

Overall, looking at the technical analysis landscape, it seems that although indicators are mixed and some are pointing in different directions further drawbacks may be next for Facebook.

Facebook has a market cap of $661.39 billion the social media company has lost 7.26% this year. So far, it has been outperforming the Nasdaq​ by 6.29%.
