What’s Next For Snap?

Bullish traders are hoping this bounce is the beginning of an uptrend toward resistance. If the stock can begin to form higher lows, it may signal an uptrend is coming. Bulls are then looking to see the stock break above the $65 resistance level and consolidate above the level. This could push the stock higher in the future.

Bearish traders are looking to see the stock be unable to form higher lows and start to fall back toward support. A break below support and watching the $48 level turn into resistance is what bears would like to see in the future. This could cause the stock to see stronger bearish pushes in the future.
