Microsoft (MSFT) - The price movement last week was marked by a slightly degree of volatility. The near-term outlook will depend on the price movement in the next few days. A close above 19.50 will impart bullishness and will help the stock move to the 19.93-21 zone. A drop below 18.50 will have negative implications that will push the stock down to the 17-17.50 range. Technically,the ADX chart is looking weak with the +DI being below the -DI. ADX value is now at 16 and is turning down. This shows that the stock is losing momentum. In addition, MACD is printing a negative divergence, I would be quite prudent not opening long positions at resistance levels.
