Palantir Sneaks Toward Old Highs

Palantir Technologies has moved sideways for about five months, but now it could be sneaking toward a breakout.

The first pattern on today’s chart is the March 7 close of $26.46. It was the highest closing price for more than two years, but the software company closed above it last Friday. Are investors getting comfortable with higher values? (It was also resistance on June 20.)

Second, consider how the moving averages have evolved since early March. Then, the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) and 21-day EMA were extended above the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) and 100-day SMA. By early June, they were on top of each other and are now expanding. That may suggest a period of consolidation is morphing into a new uptrend.

Next, MACD is rising.

Fourth, the series of higher weekly lows starting in mid-April may reflect accumulation by longer-term buyers. (Also notice the steeper ascent in June.)

Finally, TradeStation data shows software makers starting to outperform in the last month following weakness in April and May. That could potentially favor PLTR.
