Meta Platforms has been flying as Mark Zuckerberg focuses on profitability and buybacks. So how high can the Nasdaq-100’s No. 2 performer this year go before profit takers step in?
Today’s chart uses 2-day candles to highlight some potentially important levels.
The first price zone is about $5.50 on either side of $242. The top of that area is near a bearish price gap on February 3, 2022, after a poor earnings report. The bottom of the zone matches the April 2022, which was followed by a drop of more than 60 percent. (The 2021 low of $244.61 is also in the middle of this price area.)
The second consideration is the 50 percent retracement of the drop from META’s all-time high through last November’s low. That’s located at $236.21.
Either way, these approaches may suggest another 10-15 percent of space to the upside.
