CrowdStrike Stock Strongly Bearish Ahead Of Q4 Earnings

Chart created using Benzinga Pro

CrowdStrike stock, at $374.57, is facing strong bearish momentum, trading below key short-term moving averages. The stock remains under its five-day, 20-day and 50-day exponential moving averages, reinforcing selling pressure and increasing the risk of further downside. Additionally, CrowdStrike stock's eight-day simple moving average of $387.49 and 20-day simple moving average of $415.45 both indicate a bearish trend, suggesting resistance at these levels.

However, longer-term indicators provide a mixed picture. While CrowdStrike stock remains below its 50-day simple moving average of $385.83, its 200-day simple moving average of $333.31 suggests underlying bullish support.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator at a negative 2.58 signals lingering bearish momentum. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 39.90, and declining, indicates that the stock is approaching oversold territory but is not yet at extreme levels.

Investors should watch for a break above short-term resistance or a further RSI dip below 30, which could indicate a reversal opportunity.
