The daily chart for Netflix shows a decline to $478.54 on May 19, 2021, followed by a rally to its all-time intraday high of $700.99 set on November 17. Then came the 24.9% decline to $526.32 set on January 10.
The rally was fueled by a golden cross set on August18, 2021 when the 50-day simple moving average rose above the 200-day simple moving average. The downside correction failed to hold the 50-day simple moving average on December 1. There was a price gap below the 200-day SMA on January 6. The week’s value level at $527.08 held on Monday, January 10.
If this weekly level holds the upside is to the annual pivot at $573.13. These two levels are the bottom two horizontal lines.
