Alphabet Inc. Technical Analysis

The technical analysis of the Google stock price chart on a daily timeframe shows GOOG is retracing down toward the 50-period moving average MA(50) after rebounding to 7-month high three weeks ago. We believe the bearish momentum will continue after the price breaches below the lower boundary of Donchian channel at 103.18. This level can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to sell. The stop loss can be placed above the fractal high at 109.48. After placing the order, the stop loss is to be moved every day to the next fractal high following Parabolic indicator signals. Thus, we are changing the expected profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop loss level (109.48) without reaching the order (103.18), we recommend canceling the order: the market has undergone internal changes which were not taken into account.
