The 30-day technical picture is bullish, with RSI14 at 70 and price trading above both the SMA50 ($451.61) and the SMA200 ($471.07). The stock’s immediate setup shows support around $438.85 and resistance at $490.51, framing a 30-day range of $438.58 to $548.59. Given these readings, near-term momentum could push toward the $490.51 resistance, with a breakout suggesting further gains beyond the 30-day range.
Traders should note the elevated volatility around 30%, which can translate into sharper swings if price tests the resistance or breaks support. A sustained move above $490.51 would open upside, while a break below $438.85 would invite re-evaluation of the near-term thesis.
