DDOG of the DAQ?

8 Jul 2023

DDOG is struggling to make new highs. It needs to hold this support. The doji that formed at the end of the day does not bode well for a breakout. Does this mean their dream to chase down $NASDAQ:SPLK market share may have to wait?

Bullish Case - This is a tough level but not impossible. If they can add more value to shareholders, it can attract more investor support. Earnings are due sometime in August or sooner, so this can provide what we need to break out. 91.80 is not a bearish level to watch but a discount for bulls to buy in.

Bearish Case - Bulls are trying and failing all at once. How can there be a golden cross and yet no new high? That means we will retest the 50 and possibly the 200, which BOTH are below the bearish level that will become resistance when we break it. This gravestone doji will play true and destroy supports along the way as we blow past the 91.80 price.

Conclusion - Consolidation after having a very bullish signal is a sign of accumulation, but the bears hold serve by dishing out a gravestone at the end of the day. This is why 91.80 is both a support and the potential curse if price breaks below. Can the bulls keep the accumulation going for 3 more weeks?

Bullish above - 102.88
Bearish below - 91.80

I thought it would retest before continuing but it just pulled back. May look for a trade here.
