Canopy Growth Daily Chart Analysis

  • Shares have been attempting to cross above the $60 level for a time, as it has held as a strong resistance area for the stock. The higher low trendline in the ascending triangle pattern has been broken, as the stock was unable to break out and still holds the $60 level as resistance.
  • The stock trades below both the 50-day moving average (green) and the 200-day moving average (blue). This indicates bearish sentiment, and each of these moving averages may hold as an area of resistance in the future.
  • The Relative Strength Index (RSI) continues to stay low and sits at 32 on the indicator. This shows the stock is near the oversold area and is seeing many more sellers than buyers. If the RSI continues to stay low, the price will likely continue to fall.
