DraftKings Daily Chart Analysis

  • The stock looks to have bounced off support in what technical traders call a sideways channel. Resistance has been found near the $19 level in the past and it now looks to be holding as a level of support. If the stock continues to push higher for some time it may find resistance near $45 as it has in the past.
  • 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) looks to have formed higher lows since late 2021 and now sits at 42. This shows more buyers have been pushing into the stock and it nears the middle line. A cross back above the middle line will show that there are more buyers in the stock than sellers.
