Palantir  Technical Analysis

Palantir (PLTR) is putting in a pretty neat tight flag on its 4H chart, after it bounced right back off the trendline support from April lows, around $122.77. And so far it’s still holding above that blue moving average dynamic support level, at $131-$133, but it’s running into a bit of trouble with the red moving average resistance around $140-$144.

When you look at the bigger picture though, the higher lows are still intact, within a much larger descending channel from that $156 high. And even though the recent consolidation was a bit tight, it’s been respecting that 0.618 – 0.786 Fib retracement area. And the RSI’s not doing too badly either, pretty much neutral, just a smidge above 50 – 55, with a positive divergence on the dip – that’s a sign of weakening bearish pressure and maybe even room to keep going.

Key Levels:

  • Resistance: $139.40–$140.71 → $144.67–$150.84
  • Support: $131.40 → $126.59

Trade Idea: Buy when you see it jump above $136 and see if you can get it to $140.71–$144.67 – and in the meantime, set your stop below $131.40.

Palantir’s execution and AI momentum is still moving along pretty well, but just to be realistic about it, the valuation isn’t exactly giving it a whole lot of room for error. So we all get to watch – and wait for – the Q2 numbers AND get a little more insight into their commercial AI adoption strategy.
