Shopify stock, at $121.34 , trades right above the eight-day simple moving average (SMA) of $118.58 suggesting short-term strength. Longer-term indicators too, remain firmly bullish. Shopify stock is well above its 20-day ($111.55), 50-day ($111.58) and 200-day ($82.34) SMAs, reinforcing the broader bullish sentiment.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator at 3.35 further supports the bullish outlook, reflecting strong momentum.

Meanwhile, Shopify's Relative Strength Index (RSI) of $62.87 places it in neutral territory, indicating there is still room for upward movement before entering overbought conditions.
