Alphabet Inc. back on swing support
The stock has consolidated roughly 15% since the beginning of February, digesting prior gains and working off overbought conditions. Yesterday’s session saw a rebound right on major swing support at 296.12, with an intraday low at 296.25 — a precise technical reaction that shouldn’t be ignored. It’s still a bit early to call for a confirmed reversal, but this level is clearly one to monitor closely. What would strengthen the bullish case? • 📈 A clear pickup in volume • 🟢 Strong follow-through candles off support • 🔁 Higher lows on lower timeframes • 💥 Reclaiming short-term moving averages If buyers step in with conviction, this zone could mark the start of the next leg higher. If not, a clean break below opens the door to further downside. For now, it’s about watching price + volume confirmation. Are you waiting for confirmation — or positioning early at support?
