Roku Daily Chart Analysis

  • Shares recently broke support in a sideways channel. Support in this channel was found near the $240 level, while the stock has held as resistance near the $480 level. If the price stays below the $240 level this area could become an area of resistance in the future.
  • The stock trades below both the 50-day moving average (green) and the 200-day moving average (blue). This indicates bearish sentiment, and each of these moving averages may hold as an area of resistance in the future.
  • The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has been trending lower the last few days and now sits at 33 on the indicator. This shows that sellers are winning the battle in the stock and the pressure of selling outweighs the buying pressure strongly.
